| 0 | 46.4 | 46.4: Harshit Rana to Josh Hazlewood, OUT! KNOCKED HIM OVER! Harshit Rana finishes off with a superb 4-fer. He spears in a cross-seam delivery, and it is the yorker, right at the base of middle and off stumps. Josh Hazlewood could do very little on it. He backs away to give himself some room before attempting to carve it through the off side, but fails to jam his bat down in time. The ball beats the bat and makes a mess of the furniture behind. AUSTRALIA ARE BOWLED OUT ON 236! |
| 0 | 46.3 | 46.3: Harshit Rana to Josh Hazlewood, Nagging length, on off, dabbed out to the point region. |
| 0 | 46.2 | 46.2: Harshit Rana to Cooper Connolly, OUT! IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! Good execution from Rana and he gets a three-fer. Rana continues with his pace-off ploy and lands it on a good length, keeping it around the off stump line. Connolly stands tall and gets through his cross-batted shot early. Only manages to slice it off the toe end towards Virat Kohli at wide long off. A dolly for Kohli in the deep. Cooper Connolly departs on 23 (34) and Australia are staring at being bowled out. 236/9. |

| 0 | 43.6 | 43.5: Prasidh Krishna to Nathan Ellis, OUT! TAKEN! Prasidh Krishna gets into the wicket-taking act now! Not a great delivery but he won't mind that. Tries the yorker but serves a low full toss, on middle. Nathan Ellis clears his front leg out to heave it away but gets it from the bottom half of his bat. Hits it flat and in the air straight to mid-wicket, where Rohit Sharma takes a good catch at thigh height. A nice little cameo from Ellish of 16 (19) comes to an end now. Australia are 223/8! |

| 0 | 42.6 | 42.6: Kuldeep Yadav to Cooper Connolly, Quicker, full and on middle and leg, angles in, Cooper Connolly stays back to play at it but gets hurried and wears it on the pads. A slight appeal for LBW, but nothing doing. |

| 0 | 38.4 | 38.4: Kuldeep Yadav to Mitchell Starc, OUT! OUTFOXED! Kuldeep gets the reward now! He goes flat and touch full, sliding the googly around middle and leg. It lands and then skids through. Starc, without much foot movement, pushes at the delivery, but that creates a gap between the bat and pad which is enough for the ball to break through the gates and smash the leg stump behind. Mitchell Starc departs on 2 (5) and from 195/4, Australia have rocked badly as they are now 201/7. |
| 1 | 38.3 | 38.3: Kuldeep Yadav to Cooper Connolly, Pushed flatter on middle, on a length. Cooper Connolly rocks back and nudges it down to long on for a single again. |

| 0 | 37.4 | 37.4: Harshit Rana to Mitchell Owen, OUT! EDGED AND TAKEN! Problems rising for Australia now as Harshit Rana gets two to his name. Rana slams the deck really hard, keeping the line of attack just outside off, on that fourth or fifth stump line. It skids through with a bit of nip away and extra bounce as well and that catches Owen off guard. He is squared up and hangs his bat in front, only managing to get a thick outside edge. The ball flies flat to the left of the first slip where Rohit Sharma takes a fine grab. Mitchell Owen couldn't do much this time and departs on 1 (4). Australia have slipped down from 195/4 to 198/6. |

| 0 | 36.2 | 36.2: Washington Sundar to Matt Renshaw, OUT! LBW! Washington Sundar gets a big fish and gets his second wicket! Darts it in from around the stumps. Full and drifting into the batter on the stumps. Matt Renshaw gets forward and tries to work it across the line to the leg side with a flick shot, but plays all over it and wears on the front pad. A massive, confident appeal for LBW and the umpire raises his finger instantly. But Matt Renshaw has gone upstairs for a review. UltraEdge comes up and shows a flat line when the ball passes the bat. Ball Tracking comes up with three reds, with the ball projected to hit the leg stump. Matt Renshaw's fine 56 (58) comes to an end. Australia are 195/5. |

Short of a length, outside off stump with pace on. Carey rises with the bounce on his toes, attempting to hammer it straight down the ground, but only manages a thick top edge that spirals high towards the deep third region. Iyer from backward point sprints backwards at full pace, keeping his eyes on the trajectory, and pulls off a spectacular diving catch while tumbling over. Oh, dear! Shreyas looks in a lot of pain after taking that catch as he lands right on his lower ribs, and needs medical attention. Alex Carey departs on 24 (37) and Australia are 183/4. |
| 0 | 33.3 | 33.3: Harshit Rana to Alex Carey, Slower one from Rana, on the stumps, Alex Carey waits back and defends it back to the bowler. |

| 4 | 33.1 | 33.1: Harshit Rana to Matt Renshaw, FOUR! MAIDEN ODI FIFTY FOR MATT RENSHAW! A classy inning from him. Absolutely risk-free and he has kept the scorecard ticking on beautifully. A freebie from Rana upon his return to the attack. Down leg, full in length. Renshaw uses all the pace and just tickles it to the deep fine leg fence for a boundary. Just a couple of boundaries in his innings, but Renshaw is batting at a strike rate of more than a run a ball. He will aim to convert this into three figures now. |
| 2 | 32.6 | 32.6: Washington Sundar to Alex Carey, Full and quick, on off, Alex Carey gets on the front foot and drives it all along the ground, wide of extra cover.

Carey goes down to slog sweep it but has to drag it a bit and hits it much straighter. The ball flies towards long on, where Prasidh Krishna runs forward but fails to judge the direction and trajectory of the ball. He then moves to his left and dives to grab it but does not get his fingers underneath it and spills it out. They cross. Carey gets a life here! |

Pitched up and on off, Matthew Short drives it towards short covers, where the fielder dives to his left but only makes a half-stop and parries it towards mid off. Short calls for the run on the misfield, and Marsh responds but then stops. There is a huge mix-up between the batters before they eventually go for the run. Shubman Gill collects the ball, takes aim but misses his shy at the bowler's end. Short puts in a desperate dive, but that would not have saved him. Looks like he has hurt his fingers as well. |
