Adelaide, Feb 8 (IBNS) : Days before the start of the World Cup, India's preparation for the tournament suffered a jolt as MS Dhoni's side was thrashed by 106 runs hosts Australia in a warm-up game with Glenn Maxwell and David Warner striking centuries here on Sunday.

After winning the toss, Australia elected to bat first and were 371 all out in 48.2 overs.

The Australian bowlers then bowled out India for 265 runs.

Shikhar Dhawan (59), Ajinkya Rahane  (66) and Ambati Rayudu (53) scored some runs but they were not enough to reach the mammoth target as the rest of the batting line-up crumbled in front of aggressive Australian bowling.

Pat Cummins was the most successful bowler for Australia as he picked up three wickets by giving away 30 runs.

Mitchell Starc, Mitchell Johnson and Josh Hazlewood shared two wickets apiece.

Earlier, Glenn Maxwell and David Warner hammered centuries as Australia posted 371 on the scorecard.

Maxwell was ruthless in his 57-ball 122, where he hit 11 boundaries and eight sixes while  opener Warner scored 83-ball 104.

Maxwell was retired out.

Mohammed Shami took three wickets for India but gave away 83 runs.
