7.42pm: Australia finish on 151 for 8. It was a proper seesaw battle between the two sides. Renuka struck twice in the third over to dent Australia early. Harris, who opened instead of Healy, started slow but shared a solid stand with McGrath. Cameos from the stand-in captain and Perry lifted Australia in the middle overs. Barring Reddy, all of the Indian bowlers were among the wickets. There was also a controversial DRS call where Litchfield was involved. It will no be an easy chase though, I feel. Join Suds after a short break for the start of the chase

Sharma to Litchfield, no run, Goes for a reverse sweep and misses! Umpire's finger goes up. But Litchfield decides to review this. Is it missing stumps? Tossed up on leg stump. UltraEdge confirms it's hit on the pad. It's pitching outside leg but because it's a reverse sweep, it may not be considered as outside leg. Mandhana has a word with the umpire. Oh, but it's considered outside leg by the umpire. Litchfield survives!
