Nagpur, Mar 3 (IBNS): After registering a win against Australia in the first ODI match of the tournament, Indian team are now gearing up for the second match in Nagpur.

A rock-solid partnership by Kedar Jadhav and former skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni guided India to a six-wicket victory in the first One Day International (ODI) match at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium here on Saturday.

Jadhav and Dhoni remained unbeaten 81 and 59 respectively as India chased down 237 with 10 balls to spare.

In reply to Australia's 236/7 in 50 overs, India scored 240/4.

Apart from Jadhav-Dhoni, Indian captain and vice-captain, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, contributed 44 and 37 respectively.

For Australia, Nathan Coulter-Nile and Adam Zampa shared two wickets each.
