Perth [Australia], October 19 (ANI): The first ODI between India and Australia is set to resume after almost two hours' hold due to rain delays in Perth on Sunday at the Optus Stadium. The match has been reduced to 35 overs per side. Each bowler can bowl a maximum of 7 overs.

India is struggling at 37/3 after 11.5 overs, with Shreyas Iyer and Axar Patel at the crease. Australia will be chasing a revised score according to the DLS method. India had experienced a disastrous start, losing the wickets of captain Shubman Gill and veteran stalwarts Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli within the first 10 overs.
