10.12pm Australia end then on a well above par 164 for 5. Oman had them worried for the first half of this innings but a potentially game-defining stand of 102 from 64 deliveries between Stoinis and Warner took the game away. Both batters bided their time on a tricky surface, before Stoinis turned on the afterburners. On a wicket such as this all it took was one or two big overs, and Stoinis delivered on that front while Warner played the anchor role to perfection. Steep chase for Oman, Abhimanyu will back for the start of that in a bit.

Bilal Khan to David, FOUR, Flicked behind square leg! Length ball, sticks in the surface, but David waits for it and flicks his wrists to great effect

Rishab: "Kaleemullah, what was that send off? He's been animated pretty much from the start of the game. Pretty sure referee is taking note of it." --- Yeah sorry missed that after Warner's wicket.

Kaleemullah to David, FOUR, David wastes little time! This was a slower one, 98kph, on his pads. But David gets inside the line and slaps this down to the fine leg boundary with interest. That really did race away

Kaleemullah to Warner, OUT, And finally Oman break the stand! This one is bowled into the pitch, and Warner just can't generate the power he wants. Ends up slapping this one from outside off straight to long-off. Warner walks off in a huff, clearly wanted to see this through to the end

Kaleemullah to Stoinis, FOUR, It's all going Stoinis' way! Full and wide, Stoinis swings and swings hard. And that's good enough as a thick outside edge sails over short third

Anjan: "Australia has been extremely lucky to have talented players click at the right time. Maxwell vs Afghanistan in 2023 world cup and now Stoinis vs Oman." --- Something something mentality...something something in their DNA
