Brett Lee was among the wicket takers as Australia's pace bowlers made good use of a lively pitch to dismiss India for 214 in 44.3 overs in a World Cup warm-up game on Sunday.
Lee finished with three for 35 after useful strikes by other seamers, while opener Virender Sehwag top-scored for India with 54 at the Chinnaswamy Stadium.
India, who elected to bat, decided not to use Sachin Tendulkar and Zaheer Khan in a match in which all 15 players of the squad could be played with a maximum of 11 allowed to bat.
Australia next play South Africa in a warm-up fixture on Tuesday, while India faces New Zealand in Chennai on Wednesday.
The World Cup begins with a clash between India and Bangladesh in Dhaka on February 19
