12.22pm: Rohit stands tall, pushes Australia to the brink. India's captain said he wanted to bowl first but put his foot down to brutal effect after being asked to bat. His 92 from 41 already looks like one of the great World Cup innings (although we'd best wait until both sides have batted). He scored 15 boundaries, the rest of his team, 14. And in a sign of how things slowed down, India only found the fence five times in the last six overs. Can Australia find a response with the bat, with a semi-final spot on the line? Karthik Krishnaswamy will be here shortly to find out

Suryakumar Yadav is talking to the host broadcaster: "[Rohit knock] Felt like a dream, he batted beautifully. We talked about what brand we want to play and he showed us the way. It's a good score, good wicket. Hopefully something for the bowlers when we go in. Everyone knows their role, playing as a team."

Cummins to finish this

This is now the most sixes hit in a match by India at the T20 World Cups, says Shiva

Ravindra Jadeja is in at No.7

Stoinis now

"Six hitter playing for singles.. has the pitch slowed down ??" It does seem that way, Sukruth (see Matt's comment)

Here's Matt R in St Lucia: "Template in the last morning start here was a big first-innings powerplay, and nobody else managed to score at that rate for the rest of the game. Feels like it could play out similarly here (except for Rohit sticking around a few overs longer than QdK)"

Cummins for the 18th

Here's kabir: "if India beat Australia by 60 or more run there is a change of Bangladesh to qualify after winning 30 runs with Afgan. The group is highly competitive now."
