Dunno about this tournament but Mohali's pitch generally turns out big totals due to shorter boundaries and good bounce. I think in IPL 200+ may have been chased here couple of times.
Yeah think Kings XI chased 230 odd on here once, the bounce looks a bit lowish to be fair, just not enough balls in the right spots from the Indian bowlers.

Just checked

NZ - 180-5, Pak - 158-5
Aus - 193-4, Pak - 172-8

Going to be a big ask for India here after this start, will need regular wickets
Any half decent lineup would have chased down both those. Australia probably need 200+ here.

Though one thing that would be worrying the Indians is that this is the second game on this pitch today. It might slow down. Probably that's why they have the grass on the pitch to prevent it from slowing down.

Finch is standing outside leg and Ashwin is persisting with a leg stump line to try and cramp. Tiny margin for error.

India have stemmed the bleeding well after Australia's great start. Need a big partnership and a captain's knock from babyface Smith.

I don't understand why Dhoni goes to Pandya.
