    13.5 terrific catch at long-on! Rahul has lost the strike and now lost his wicket. The pressure has told in these middle overs, Rahul trying to break the shackles but can't get the distance down the ground. Abbott runs in and takes the catch diving forward 92/5
    2.5 knocks out off stump with a trademark delivery! He's back. Starc is back. High 140s, outswinger starting middle and curving viciously towards off. Dhawan's got his front leg in the leg side and his stumps exposed as he creates room for the drive through cover. The late swing and the pace does him and it's a pretty sight as the stumps is tonked 11/1
    6.4 balloons back to the bowler. The only thing going for Swepson this ball is that it has gripped. It's short but it's gripped and turned away and gotten big on Kohli in the corridor. He's shaping to pull but checks himself and it pops back gently to the bowler off the leading edge 48/2
    11.1 straight to cover! Full outside off, was in the slot for the drive, but Samson couldn't have picked out the fielder on the edge of the ring with any more precision 86/3
    12.4 good catch at short third man! Hazlewood does well to get down to that. Pandey went back to a slightly shorter ball, goes for the cut, it takes the top edge and is dipping as it reaches Hazlewood 90/4
    16.5 high...very high, and taken at long-off! Pandya is cut off before he can really get going, gets all height on this one, low down on the bat, Smith has plenty of time to get underneath it 114/6

    14.6 finds long-on! He tried to go big, but can't get the distance. Full outside off, Short picked it up, it's a cross-seamer, comes from low down on the bat and it's a comfortable catch 113/4
    7.4 oh sensational catch from Pandya! This will grate on Australia, no doubt. The concussion sub has a wicket. And it's a good ball. Lobbed up at off stump, full and dipping. Finch backs away looking to go over extra cover. Ends up slicing it because he's not to the pitch. Pandya then sprints some 20 yards to his left from long-off, composes himself briefly and then springs out, full stretch, to pluck this just as it threatens to plonk into the turf. Puts in a nice slide to hold on to it too 56/1
    9.5 Samson you stunner! Oh boy! We saw a good one from Pandya earlier but this was, by some degree, a harder one. It's flat, it's dipping, it's absolutely laced across the line. Samson runs in from deep midwicket, staying low at every point and then dives to pick it up low and in front of himself. That took so much hurried movement that he absolutely had to nail the follow through as well to hold on - and he does that with the most graceful tumble. Superb. A slog across the line that Smith got good connection on 72/2
    10.3 huge appeal for lbw! And Kohli has reviewed almost before the ball stops rolling away. Where did it pitch? Was smashing the stumps for sure. Maxwell playing back to a short of a length delivery. Beaten for pace. We have a small delay waiting for ball tracking. And now the pitch map is missing from the replay. Here it comes...it's pitched in line and it's hitting off stump. 75/3
    17.4 given lbw! The bowler didn't even appeal. Henriques has reviewed. He moved right across the crease, aiming to the leg side, it looked pretty straight. Only the keeper appealed. No bat involved. Another wait for the ball tracking to be put together. Smashing leg stump 126/6
    16.6 another top edge, taken at deep midwicket! Pushed wide outside off again, Wade has to reach for it, opts to sweep again and picks out Kohli. India closing in. 122/5
