• Australia’s Alex Carey goes on attack but runs out of partners
Alex Carey, batting at No 7, gave India some concern but Australia’s attempt at a record World Cup chase of 353 fell short by 36 runs.
Steve Smith top-scored for Australia with 69, David Warner weighed in with 56 and Carey made an unbeaten 55 off 35 balls but no one could stay with him as the overs ticked down.
