Australia won the toss and elected to BOWL. Naturally since any moiture in pitch effect will favour bowling early on.

Duckworth Lewis Calulation may apply to this game. Perhaps only if there are more delays.

With that in mind it does pay bat aggressively and get the runs rather than delaying to get used to conditions. You may loose the opportunity to up the scoring rate in latter overs if rain causes a premature end. However, the calculation DOES take into account number of wickets fallen, so you cant afford to throw all caution to the wind.
