Match over
0.3 : 0.3: Mohammed Shami to David Warner, FOUR! Warner and Australia are underway in some style. This was not a bad delivery from Shami but a terrific shot. On a length around off, Warner actually walks towards the bowler. To negate the swing, perhaps? Cuts it through the cover-point region for a boundary. 
3.5 : 3.5: Jasprit Bumrah to Aaron Finch, FOUR! Poor ball from Bumrah and Finch puts it away. Full ball on the pads, Finch flicks it to the deep square leg region for a boundary. Easy pickings for Finch. 
4.1 : 4.1: Navdeep Saini to David Warner, SIX! Welcome into the attack, Navdeep Saini! Poor start from Saini though. He bowls a short ball first up but does not rise high enough. Warner rocks on his back foot and then pulls it over deep square leg for a biggie!
6.3 : 6.3: Navdeep Saini to David Warner, FOUR! Bang! Warner is on the charge! Saini overpitches it on off, Warner frees his arms and then powers it over the bowler's head for a boundary.
6.5 : 6.5: Navdeep Saini to David Warner, FOUR! Warner is looking in ominous touch! Good length ball on middle, Wanrer backs away, gives himself room and then punches it through deep cover for a boundary. 
7.5: Mohammed Shami to David Warner, FOUR! Wow, beautiful from Warner! Short on middle, Warner camps on his back foot and then flays it through mid-wicket for a boundary. Warner is looking solid.
7.6 : 7.6: Mohammed Shami to David Warner, FOUR! Another boundary! 50-run stand comes up! These two love playing against the Indians and they are looking in ominous touch once again. Shami bowls a shortish one outside off, Warner lifts it over the cover fielder and fetches himself another boundary. 
9.1 : 9.1: Navdeep Saini to Aaron Finch, FOUR! Finch gets into the act now! Saini has been not upto the mark so far and Australia are targetting him. Full on off, Finch dances down the track and then lifts it wide of mid off for a boundary.
10.2 : 10.2: Yuzvendra Chahal to David Warner, SIX! THUNDEROUS! Welcome, Yuzi! Power from Warner. Tossed up, outside off, not too much spin in the pitch, Davey gets down and slog sweeps it over mid-wicket!
10.3 : 10.3: Yuzvendra Chahal to David Warner, FOUR! Not a great delivery from Chahal. The wrong 'un, outside off, but it is just pushed through, dragging it fractionally short. Warner cuts it through the covers.
11.6 : 11.6: Navdeep Saini to Aaron Finch, FOUR! Off the top edge this time! A short ball, around off, skids off the deck, Finch looks to pull but gets a top edge which goes over Rahul. Lands in front of the ropes at fine leg and beats the fielder to his right.
13.3 : 13.3: Jasprit Bumrah to Aaron Finch, FOUR! Short and around off, Finch pulls this through mid-wicket.
13.5 : 13.5: Jasprit Bumrah to Aaron Finch, FOUR! Fine shot. Outside off, on a length, Finch just creams his cover drive to perfection.
16.4 : 16.4: Yuzvendra Chahal to David Warner, SIX! Just over a leaping fielder at long on! Needed a Kieron Pollard to catch that. Full and around middle, Warner lunges and just looks to hit this. By no means, powerfully and perhaps hit it way too better than he would have liked. Luckily for him, it clears the fielder.
20.3 : 20.3: Yuzvendra Chahal to David Warner, FOUR! Nicely played from Warner! Floated on off, Warner goes on his knees and then sweeps it to the deep square leg region for a boundary. 
20.6 : 20.6: Yuzvendra Chahal to Aaron Finch, SIX! What a way to get to 50! Terrific from Finch. He continues his form from the last game and is looking in some solid touch. Loopy ball on middle, Finch hammers it over deep mid-wicket for a biggie. 
22.2 : 22.2: Mohammed Shami to Aaron Finch, FOUR! Pulled and pulled away nicely! Short ball from Shaim but does not rise high enough. Finch rocks on his back foot and then pulls it to deep square leg region for a boundary. 
22.5 : 22.5: Mohammed Shami to Aaron Finch, OUT! CAUGHT! Good bowling change from Kohli! Brings his strike bowler back on and Shami strikes. Finally, they get the breakthrough. Finch goes after playing another fine knock but will be a little disappointed that he could not continue. Good length ball on middle, Finch looks to flick but closes the face of the bat a little too early. It takes the leading edge and goes towards cover. Kohli runs back a little and takes a simple catch. Very important wicket f
24.4 : 24.4: Mohammed Shami to Steven Smith, FOUR! Beautiful! Absolute class from Steven Smith! Full on middle, Smith just creams the drive past the bowler and into the long off fence. 150 up for Australia.
25.3 : 25.3: Ravindra Jadeja to Steven Smith, OUT! RUN OUT! Warner is short by some margin and he knows it as he walks off before the decision is made. Excellent piece of fielding from Shreyas Iyer. Not easy to hit the stumps direct from the deep but he has done it and has found Warner short. Loopy ball on off, Smith chips it ver the bowler's head towards long off and takes off for the run. Warner wants the second and calls Smith for the second. Iyer comes across, collects and has a shy at the bowler's
26.1 : 26.1: Jasprit Bumrah to Steven Smith, FOUR! Horrible delivery from Bumrah! That releases the pressure a little. Good length ball outside off, Smith punches it through cover-point for a boundary. 
29.2 : 29.2: Ravindra Jadeja to Steven Smith, FOUR! Smith is so good in finding the gaps and he does so again! Flighted ball outside off, Smith drives it through extra cover. The fielder runs across and dives but fails to stop it. 
29.5 : 29.5: Ravindra Jadeja to Steven Smith, SIX! BANG! Smith goes big and gets his first biggie of the game. Tossed up on middle, Smith powers it over deep mid-wicket for a maximum. 
30.5: Navdeep Saini to Steven Smith, FOUR! What a shot. Full and around midddle, Smith comes forward and punches it through mid on. The fielder tries to get across to his left but the ball goes through!
30.6 : 30.6: Navdeep Saini to Steven Smith, FOUR! Very fine now! Down the leg side, Smith gets across and helps it to the fine leg fence.
33.1 : 33.1: Navdeep Saini to Marnus Labuschagne, FOUR! HANDSOME! Welcome back into the attack, mate. Loosener from Saini, a half volley outside off, Labuschagne leans and drives it through the covers. Sweeper has no chance.
34.5 : 34.5: Mayank Agarwal to Steven Smith, MISFIELD, FOUR! Ravindra Jadeja, of all the people. Short and outside off, Smith cuts it towards point. Jadeja over there gets across to his left, slides, but the ball just goes through!
34.6 : 34.6: Mayank Agarwal to Steven Smith, FOUR! Insult to injury. The last ball should have been just a single and maybe Labuschagne would have been on strike for this one. The over could have been better. Instead, 8 runs come on the last two balls. Full and around middle, Smith lunges and lofts it over the bowler and bisects long on and long off!
36.4 : 36.4: Yuzvendra Chahal to Marnus Labuschagne, FOUR! Better shot. Full and around off, Labuschagne gets down and sweeps it uppishly over mid-wicket.
36.6 : 36.6: Yuzvendra Chahal to Steven Smith, FOUR! The ball has bounced, confirms the third umpire. Full and outside off, Smith looks to play the slog sweep but mistimes it. A top edge is generated but such is his luck, that it is in the gap. Almost clears the ropes at mid-wicket.
38.1 : 38.1: Mohammed Shami to Steven Smith, FOUR! LOVELY! Welcome, Mr. Shami. Full and outside off, Smith just leans and drives it between cover and mid off.
38.5 : 38.5: Mohammed Shami to Steven Smith, FOUR! That is imperious. Not a bad ball, outside off, on a length, but Smith just nonchalantly flays it between cover and mid off.
39.1 : 39.1: Jasprit Bumrah to Steven Smith, FOUR! Again, the first ball of an over goes for a boundary. Outside off, Smith just steers it behind point and beats third man to his right!
39.2 : 39.2: Jasprit Bumrah to Steven Smith, FOUR! My my my. This is batting of the highest quality. Outside off, Smith just steers it to the left of short third man. It actually went through the vacant first slip place!
39.5 : 39.5: Jasprit Bumrah to Steven Smith, FOUR! Batting exhibition. Third boundary of the over! A length ball, around off, Smith gets across and works it past short fine leg. Mohammed Shami gives it a chase but comes second best.
40.2 : 40.2: Yuzvendra Chahal to Steven Smith, SIX! What a shot from Smith! He is unstoppable right now! Flighted ball on middle, Smith uses his feet and then powers it over the bowler's head for a maximum.
41.1 : 41.1: Hardik Pandya to Steven Smith, FOUR! Beautifully played! He is on a rampage! Full ball on middle, Smith goes on his knees and then paddles it to the fine leg region for a boundary. 
41.2 : 41.2: Hardik Pandya to Steven Smith, OUT! CAUGHT! Finally, India get the better of Smith! But, take a bow, Steven Smith! What an innings. He has played an absolute blinder of an innings. Scoring back-to-back centuries is not easy but Smith has made it look easy. Good length ball outside off, Smith reaches for it and then looks to cut but it takes the outside edge and goes to short third man where Shami takes the catch. 
42.5 : 42.5: Ravindra Jadeja to Glenn Maxwell, FOUR! Not the greatest of deliveries from Jadeja! Short on the pads, Maxwell pulls it to the deep square leg region for a boundary. 300 up for Australia. 
42.6 : 42.6: Ravindra Jadeja to Glenn Maxwell, FOUR! Now the reverse sweep comes out! Maxwell can be very dangerous in the last few overs. Floated on off, Maxwell reverse paddles it to the third man region for a boundary.  Another good over for Australia.
43.2 : 43.2: Hardik Pandya to Marnus Labuschagne, FOUR! FIFTY FOR LABUSCHAGNE! This has been a brilliant innings from Labuschagne! He started slow but now is making up for it! This though is adding insult to injury. Good length ball outside off, Labuschagne cuts it through cover-point for a boundary. 
44.6 : 44.6: Jasprit Bumrah to Marnus Labuschagne, FOUR! Very well played! Not a bad delivery from Bumrah but that is class batting. Very full outside off, Labuschagne digs it through point for a boundary. Good end to the over for Australia.
45.3 : 45.3: Mohammed Shami to Glenn Maxwell, SIX! Powered! That is massive! Short ball on off, Maxwell was ready for it and then swivels and pulls it over deep mid-wicket for a biggie.
46.1 : 46.1: Jasprit Bumrah to Glenn Maxwell, SIX! Woah! That is why Maxwell rated so highly! Incredible hitting from Maxwell. Brilliant. Full ball outside off, slower in pace, Maxwell spots it early, gets down on a knee and smashes it over extra cover for a maximum. 50-run partnership comes up and in double quick time.
47.5 : 47.5: Mohammed Shami to Glenn Maxwell, FOUR! Extravagant! Terrific! Australai are rollicking along. Full on off, Maxwell bends and then reverse paddles it over short third man for a boundary. 
47.6 : 47.6: Mohammed Shami to Glenn Maxwell, FOUR! Wow, this is simply superb from Maxwell! He is tough to stop if he bats like this. Another full one outside off, Maxwell reverse paddles it to third man.  13 from the over. 
48.2 : 48.2: Jasprit Bumrah to Marnus Labuschagne, FOUR! Clever! Labuschagne says if you can do it, Maxwell, so can I. Low full toss on off, Labuschagne shuffles across and then paddles it over short fine leg for a boundary.
48.5 : 48.5: Jasprit Bumrah to Marnus Labuschagne, OUT! CAUGHT! Goes straight into the hands of mid off. Labuschagne was aiming to go over mid off but fails to get the elevation. Bumrah gets his first wicket of the game but he has been expensive. End of a good innings from Labuschagne. Full and on off, Labuschagne looks to lift it over mid off but does not get the elevation. Mayank Agarwal takes the catch comfortably. 
49.3 : 49.3: Navdeep Saini to Glenn Maxwell, SIX! Hammered! This is just top class stuff from Maxwell. Full ball on middle, Maxwell powers it over deep mid-wicket for a biggie. 
49.4 : 49.4: Navdeep Saini to Glenn Maxwell, SIX! That'a gift from Saini! Bowling a full toss at this stage in not good at all. He bowls it on middle, and Maxwell just thrashes it over deep square leg for a maximum. 
0.1 : 0.1: Mitchell Starc to Mayank Agarwal, FOUR! Familiar start from Starc! Does not get his radar right and Agarwal punishes it. Full ball on the pads, Agarwal nonchalantly flicks it through mid-wicket for a boundary. 
0.3 : 0.3: Mitchell Starc to Mayank Agarwal, FOUR! CREAMED! Starc has not started well at all again! Full outside off, Agarwal creams it through cover-point for a boundary. 
1.1 : 1.1: Josh Hazlewood to Shikhar Dhawan, FOUR! What a start from Dhawan! This was smashed! Full ball outside off, Dhawan thrashes it through the cover region for his first boundary of the game.
4.4 : 4.4: Mitchell Starc to Shikhar Dhawan, FOUR! Luck favouring Dhawan at the moment! This was a terrific delivery from Starc but was unlucky. Yorker on middle, Dhawan looks to dig it out but it takes the inside edge and it goes to the fine leg region for a boundary.
4.5 : 4.5: Mitchell Starc to Shikhar Dhawan, FOUR! This one is dispatched from Dhawan! Shortish outside off, Dhawan thrashes it over cover-point for a boundary. 
4.6 : 4.6: Mitchell Starc to Shikhar Dhawan, FOUR! Third boundary of the over! Another yorker from Starc but once again, Dhawan fetches a boundary. Yorker on middle, Dhawan gets an inside edge as he looks to defend and the ball goes to the fine leg region for a boundary. 16 runs coming in the over.
5.4 : 5.4: Josh Hazlewood to Shikhar Dhawan, FOUR! What a shot that is from Dhawan! He is looking in supreme touch! Short on middle, Dhawan pulls it over deep mid-wicket for a boundary. 
6.1 : 6.1: Pat Cummins to Mayank Agarwal, FOUR! Lovely stuff from Agarwal! Full ball outside off, Agarwal leans forward and creams the drive past the diving cover fielder for a boundary. 50 up for India.
6.3 : 6.3: Pat Cummins to Mayank Agarwal, FOUR! The timing was exquisite! Brilliant batting from Agarwal. Good length ball outside off, Agarwal drives it through extra cover for a boundary. 
7.4 : 7.4: Josh Hazlewood to Shikhar Dhawan, OUT! CAUGHT! This is a poor shot! They have started so well but Dhawan has just thrown his wicket away. Just poor stuff from the left-hander. Just like the first ODI, Hazlewood gets the first breakthrough for Australia. Good length ball on middle, Dhawan wants to flay it over mid on but it takes the top edge and goes towards mid on. Mitchell Starc settles himself under it and takes a simple catch. 332 needed in 42.2 overs. 
8.3 : 8.3: Pat Cummins to Mayank Agarwal, OUT! CAUGHT! Agarwal departs! He got off to a start but has failed to continue on again. This was a poor shot! No feet movement whatsoever and he has to go back. Cummins bowls a good length ball outside off, Agarwal looks to push at it  but does not move his feet at all and the ball takes the outside edge and goes to Carey who makes no mistake. Two quick wickets after a good start. 
9.2 : 9.2: Josh Hazlewood to Shreyas Iyer, FOUR! Shreyas Iyer has decided to take on the bouncer! Shortish ball on middle, Iyer makes room and then powers it over point for a boundary. Have seen Iyer play this shot many times. 
11.6 : 11.6: Adam Zampa to Shreyas Iyer, FOUR! Iyer is a good player of spin! This was uppsih for a while but was in the gap. Short ball on middle, Iyer pulls it over mid-wicket for a boundary. 
12.3 : 12.3: Pat Cummins to Virat Kohli, SIX! For a while, Kohli might have had his heart in his mouth! Just over the fielder. Short ball on middle, Kohli looks to pull but it takes the top edge and goes over the fine leg fielder for a maximum. 
13.5 : 13.5: Adam Zampa to Shreyas Iyer, FOUR! Brilliantly played! Flatter and outside off, Iyer cuts it through cover-point and fetches a boundary. 
14.1 : 14.1: Pat Cummins to Virat Kohli, FOUR! That's just glorious! from Kohli. Full on off, Kohli drives it past the bowler and towards the long on region for a boundary.
14.3 : 14.3: Pat Cummins to Virat Kohli, FOUR! This is brilliant but not great stuff from Cummins! He bowls it on the pads, Kohli just flicks it through square leg for a boundary. 
19.4 : 19.4: Glenn Maxwell to Shreyas Iyer, FOUR! Finally, some intent shown by Iyer and India. They need to put pressure on Maxwell. Floated on middle, Iyer reverse sweeps it over point for a boundary. 
21.3 : 21.3: Glenn Maxwell to Virat Kohli, FOUR! THWACK! Short ball, around off, Kohli rocks back and pulls it over mid-wicket, splitting deep square leg and squarish mid-wicket!
22.2 : 22.2: Adam Zampa to Shreyas Iyer, FOUR! Nicely played! Full on middle, Iyer comes down the track and whips it over a leaping short mid-wicket and finds the fence.
22.4 : 22.4: Adam Zampa to Virat Kohli, FOUR! Bad ball. Short and down the leg side, Kohli goes back and pulls it through square leg. Reaches his half century, does this star player, in style.
23.1 : 23.1: Moises Henriques to Shreyas Iyer, OUT! That is a spectacular diving catch! It is not a bird. It is not a plane. It is a man who has hands and feet like a crane. Steven Smith, take a bow. A short ball, outside off, Iyer pulls but slightly mistimes it. That is enough for Smith. He leaps from short mid-wicket, like a spring being set loose, gets his hands to his right, calls the ball and it goes to his hands like a magnet! End of a fine 93-run stand. India need 237 from 161 balls.
26.1: Mitchell Starc to Virat Kohli, SIX! Oh welcome back, my mate from Bangalore! These two have played for the same team in the Indian T20 League, haven't they? A few years back. Starc jogs in, bowls a gentle loosener, a half volley on the pad, Kohli accepts the gift and flicks it with his wrists over square leg! Moves to 64 from 62 balls.
26.6 : 26.6: Mitchell Starc to KL Rahul, FOUR! TONK! A boundary to start and a boundary to end. Starc has gone for 42 in his 4 overs. Short and outside off, Rahul flays it through the covers and finds the boundary. 13 from the over. India are 176/3 in 27 overs. Australia were 164/2.
27.1 : 27.1: Moises Henriques to Virat Kohli, FOUR! Great hands! 'CATCH!' is the call but the ball is in the gap. A length ball, around off, Kohli flicks it beautifully over square leg. Fine leg tries to get across to his left but the ball beats him. Kohli moves to 70 from 66 balls.
30.6 : 30.6: Mitchell Starc to Virat Kohli, FOUR! Spoils the over a bit! 7 from the over but still below the required run rate. Full ball outside off, Kohli drives it past the cover-point fielder for a boundary. 197 needed in 114 balls. 
31.3 : 31.3: Moises Henriques to KL Rahul, SIX! Up and over! India need much more of these! Shortish on off, Rahul shuffles across and then pulls it over deep square leg for a maximum.
32.2 : 32.2: Josh Hazlewood to KL Rahul, FOUR! Powered! Rahul has got his eye in now and will now look for the big shots. Short ball on middle, Rahul pulls it to the deep mid-wicket region for a boundary. 
32.3 : 32.3: Josh Hazlewood to KL Rahul, FOUR! Cut and cut away nicely! Rahul is on the charge! Good length ball outside off, Rahul cuts it through cover-point for another boundary. 
33.3: Adam Zampa to Virat Kohli, FOUR! Lovely shot from Kohli! He needs to continue! Flighted ball outside off, Kohli dances down the track and powers it over the extra cover region for a boundary. 
34.5 : 34.5: Josh Hazlewood to Virat Kohli, OUT! CAUGHT! What a brilliant catch from Henriques! Just terrific stuff from the all-rounder and this puts Australia right on top again. Hazlewood provides the breakthrough. Shortish on middle, Kohli pulls towards mid-wicket. Henriques dives to his left and takes a blinder. End of a very good innings from Kohli but neeeded to continue for his side.
36.6 : 36.6: Josh Hazlewood to Hardik Pandya, SIX! Crunched! Full on middle, Pandya smashes it over deep mid-wicket for a biggie. 153 needed in 13 overs. 
37.4 : 37.4: Mitchell Starc to KL Rahul, SIX! Right off the middle! After three dot balls, Rahul finally, manages to get hold of one. Short on middle, Rahul thrashes it over the deep mid-wicket region for a biggie. 
38.6 : 38.6: Pat Cummins to KL Rahul, SIX! Nice way to get to fifty but Rahul needs to be there. He cannot throw it away now. Short ball on middle, Rahul pulls it over the deep square leg region for a maximum. 
39.4 : 39.4: Mitchell Starc to KL Rahul, FOUR! Beautifully played from Rahul! It flew off the balde. Good length ball outside off, Rahul lifts it over extra cover for a boundary. 
41.5 : 41.5: Josh Hazlewood to KL Rahul, SIX! VIOLENCE! A high full toss on the stumps, Rahul backs away and hammers it through cover. Ashton Agar, the substitute runs across to his right, dives, perhaps gets a hand to it but the ball bursts through! The umpires refer it upstairs to check whether it bounced or hit the ropes on the full. The latter it is, as per the replays. The stand moves to 45 from 42 balls.
42.3 : 42.3: Pat Cummins to Hardik Pandya, FOUR! Cracking shot. Short and outside off, pulled over square leg for a boundary!
43.2 : 43.2: Adam Zampa to KL Rahul, SIX! The wind takes the ball over. Full and outside off, Rahul comes down the track and looks to go big but mistimes it. Long off keeps himself interested but the ball just tips over his leap.
43.4 : 43.4: Adam Zampa to KL Rahul, OUT! CAUGHT! Rahul's knock ends. Tossed up delivery wide outside off, Rahul gets down to play the mighty slog but there is no pace on the ball. All he gets is a massive top edge. Josh Hazlewood takes it calmly, reverse cup, on a knee, at short third man. A fine, fine, effort from KL. Has given India a real chance. 102 more needed from 38 balls.
44.1 : 44.1: Pat Cummins to Ravindra Jadeja, FOUR! That will help Pandya, if Jadeja contributes. A short ball, around middle, Jadeja swivels and pulls it through square leg. The fielder from mid-wicket races to his left, dives but the ball beats him!
45.1: Mitchell Starc to Ravindra Jadeja, SIX! WALLOP! So what if Pandya is not on strike? Jadeja will go big! A low full toss, outside off, Jadeja swings this over mid-wicket for half a dozen! The stand moves to 22 from 11 balls.
45.3 : 45.3: Mitchell Starc to Ravindra Jadeja, SIX! Ho ho ho! Target Henriques, target Zampa. Who thought of targetting Starc? Well, Sir has the answer! A length ball, around middle, Jadeja pulls it over deep square leg! He has rocketed to 23 from 8 balls.
46.1 : 46.1: Pat Cummins to Ravindra Jadeja, OUT! CAUGHT! Jadeja falls, in trying to keep up with the required rate. Entertaining cameo though. A length ball, outside off, angling across, Jadeja looks to go over mid off who is inside the circle. But the ball barely arrives. He is through his shot way too early and the ball takes the top edge. Glenn Maxwell runs back and takes it calmly. He is pumped up but Australia will not breathe easy till Hardik is around. 69 more needed in 23 balls.
46.2 : 46.2: Pat Cummins to Hardik Pandya, OUT! CAUGHT! Pandya holes out and is that the game now? Another cutter, outside off, Pandya gets across, looks to go big but mistimes it towards long off. Easy catch for Steven Smith at long off. Australia have bowled well to Hardik in this game. Did not bowl much on the stumps and kept on bowling wide, making him reach out for the balls.
47.3 : 47.3: Glenn Maxwell to Mohammed Shami, OUT! CAUGHT! Another one bites the dust! Floated ball outside off, Shami looks to go big but it takes the top edge and goes over the bowler's head. Maxwell runs back and takes a comfortable catch. 
48.3: Adam Zampa to Jasprit Bumrah, OUT! LBW! That was as plumb as it gets! Zampa gets his second. A wrong'un on off, spinning in. Bumrah looks to defend but misses and gets rapped on the pads, Australia appeal and the finger goes up. Bumrah knew it and he started to walk back before the decision was made. 
49.2 : 49.2: Glenn Maxwell to Navdeep Saini, FOUR! Nicely played! Loopy ball on off, Saini hammers it towards the long off region for a boundary.ÂÂ
