1st T20I: Rain stops play between India, Australia

Rain halted a perfect start by Australia in the first Twenty20 International match against India here on Wednesday. Australia were 153/3 in 16.1 overs when the sky opened up.

Australia were going hammer and tongs in the last few overs when Glenn Maxwell (46) and Marcus Stoinis (31) were hitting their shots at will before the showers started.
