Ishant to Mitchell Marsh, FOUR, another one that is thumped down the ground. He is into the 90s and has recorded his highest ODI score. A ton up for grabs. Low full toss just outside off, Marsh drives it past Ishant, who tries to put his hand out. Long-off had no chance
45.5 -
R Dhawan to Mitchell Marsh, FOUR, that hardly took off, couple of bounces and into the rope. The steward sitting outside has been pinged on the thigh. Please someone stop Marsh, he is hurting people. Slower delivery which is short, Marsh hammers it over extra cover, not a muscle moved
43.3 -
R Dhawan to Wade, FOUR, bad delivery and punished. 107ks slower one which is dragged halfway down, Wade clears his front leg and mows it over mid-wicket, no one in the deep to stop that from reaching the fence
41.5 -
R Dhawan to Wade, FOUR, unlucky! That didn't deserve a boundary. Slanted well across the left-hander, Wade goes chasing after it, the toe-end goes fine and beats third man with ease
40.4 -
Ravindra Jadeja to Mitchell Marsh, FOUR, Marsh has started to show his range now. Waited for this one, cut it late and placed it behind square on the off-side, no chance for sweeper to stop that
39.5 -
U Yadav to Mitchell Marsh, FOUR, oh intimidating. Transfers his weight on the back foot after the initial stride forward after seeing the length early, pulls it forcefully behind square and in the gap
39.2 -
U Yadav to Mitchell Marsh, FOUR, brilliant batting this. It's not a shot played in anger. Just timing. Similar full ball hoping for reverse swing. There isn't a considerable amount. Marsh stomps beside the line of the ball and plays a lavish punchy-drive straight of mid-off (who had been brought up before this ball)
38.3 -
Ishant to Warner, FOUR, oh too easy. Overcooked the yorker and dished out a full toss outside off, Warner might have actually converted it into one by advancing, slashes it over extra-cover
36.1 -
Ishant to Warner, FOUR, slotted through extra-cover. Watch out India. This man is going to unload I feel. Lines up the good length delivery outside off, opens his stance and creams the drive on the up. Didn't bother to keep it down. Didn't need to
31.4 -
U Yadav to Mitchell Marsh, FOUR, atrocious stuff from Yadav. He's been guilty of this far too often. Attempts a slower ball and drops it short outside off, Marsh blazes the cut square of the wicket
29.4 -
U Yadav to Mitchell Marsh, FOUR, short and wide! Marsh pounced on it, placing the cut through cover
29.3 -
U Yadav to Mitchell Marsh, FOUR, there's the touch of class from Marsh! Save your legs Marshy. Don't bother running. Bent his back knee a tad and timed the drive to perfection, wide of mid-off and way she goes into the fence
29.1 -
U Yadav to Warner, FOUR, outside edge and safe! "Lucky boundary" as VVS describes it on air. On a length and swung away from Warner who has a waft. Eked out a thick outside edge which flies well wide of MS, down to the third man fence
27.1 -
R Dhawan to Warner, FOUR, that should have been a wide! But Warner won't mind. When he's in that kind of mood, he won't spare any. Does he? Slower fullish delivery well wide of off. Warner shuffles across and late-cuts behind backward point. Placed it to perfection!
23.3 -
Gurkeerat Singh to Mitchell Marsh, FOUR, shot! Knelt down and picked the bones out of that. Slog-swept with impeccable timing through square leg
20.1 -
Ravindra Jadeja to Warner, FOUR, and there is action straightaway! Just over a leaping long-on. Must say it's a commendable effort from Gurkeerat. Warner waltzed down the track and lofted it wide of long-on who moves across to his left, jussssssst evaded him. Tough chance!
15.1 -
Bumrah to Warner, byes, FOUR, that's a shooter from Bumrah, kept very low after pitching, luckily for Warner, it wasn't on the stumps, he poked at that and was beaten, MS can't stop it either, straight through his legs and into the fence
14.1 -
R Dhawan to Warner, FOUR, lovely shot, overpitched and just outside off, Warner gets a big stride forward and chips it over mid-off, a few bounces and over the ropes
9.5 -
Bumrah to Warner, FOUR, short of a length and well, Warner rocked back on the pull, doesn't get hold of the shot, but places it in the gap past mid-wicket, the ball rolls away to the fence in a hurry
8.5 -
U Yadav to Smith, FOUR, this is poor bowling from Umesh, too straight and ending up on Smith's pads, whipped away over mid-wicket for a boundary, turning out to be an expensive over
8.3 -
U Yadav to Smith, FOUR, not the best looking shot, but Smith earns a boundary, on a good length and just outside off, Smith dragged it back past the non-striker, closed the bat face on impact, beats mid-on and rolls away to the straight boundary
6.4 -
Ishant to Smith, FOUR, short, wide and four, poor ball from Ishant, Smith gets on top of the bounce and cracks it square on the off-side for a boundary
4.0 -
U Yadav to Warner, FOUR, cracking shot, Calypso pull from Warner, too short from Umesh, sits up to be hit, Warner stands on one leg and dismisses it over square leg with the pull, no need to run for those
1.5 -
U Yadav to Warner, FOUR, excellent riposte from Warner, Umesh went searching for swing once again, overpitched this one well outside off, Warner leans forward, drives it on the up and beats mid-off - to his right, no need to run for those
0.4 -
Ishant to Finch, FOUR, aggression from Finch, pitched up and just outside off, no swing for Ishant, Finch leans forward, drives it on the up and clears mid-off, just one bounce and over the ropes
47.2 -
U Yadav to Wade, SIX, Yadav keeps dishing out rubbish and keeps disappearing. Why would you bowl a slower one on leg-stump with a short leg-side boundary? Hard for me to understand. Wade helps it along the way over backward square for a maximum
44.3 -
Bumrah to Mitchell Marsh, SIX, that has been bullied! Mitchell Marsh is called the Bison in the Aussie dressing and that is for this reason. He has murdered that short of length delivery, sat up nicely for Marsh who pulls it flat over deep mid-wicket. A spectator tries to catch and hurts himself. Why would you do that? He is grimacing in pain
36.5 -
Ishant to Warner, SIX, disdainful. That's more like a butcher than a cricketer. Utter disrespect. Perfectly on a good length on off, clears his front leg and clubs it through the line straight back over. Clunked into the advertising boards
31.3 -
U Yadav to Mitchell Marsh, SIX, pulled and that's gone! For a moment, I thought it came right off the top edge. But it kept sailing and ended up 5-10 rows back over fine leg. Another poor short ball, no purpose, no venom. Ends up around the mid-riff region. Marsh swivels across and hammers it away
23.5 -
Gurkeerat Singh to Warner, SIX, Warner is looking as good as ever! 100 on the cards? How does he time the ball so well? Only he must know. Down on one knee - not to propose - but to smoke a six over mid-wicket, high and handsome!
18.2 -
R Dhawan to Warner, SIX, that's Warner for you! Down on one knee and smacking sixes at will. He wallops this fullish delivery high and over deep extra cover. Superb stuff that!
48.1 -
Bumrah to Faulkner, out Bowled!! Cleaned 'im up. Damien Martyn just stole my words as he said, "Take a bow." It has been a dream debut for Bumrah. The perfect yorker, Faulkner was in the hitting mood, goes for the drive, the ball sneaks under the bat and crashes into the off-stump. Dhoni was also impressed as he applauded. Faulkner b Bumrah 1(3)
47.3 -
U Yadav to Wade, out Caught by Dhoni!! Something for Yadav to cheer about. However, Wade has done his job. Got a quickfire 36 and has left it to Finisher Faulkner to finish off the innings. Angled well outside off, might have been a wide had Wade let go, instead he went chasing and the outside edge is snaffled by Dhoni. No celebrations from the Indians. In fact, they didn't even appeal. Wade c Dhoni b U Yadav 36(27) [4s-2 6s-1]
38.5 -
Ishant to Warner, out Caught by Ravindra Jadeja!! It's over. All the butchery, the carnage, the bullying. Ishant's brought India some much needed breathing space. A well disguised off-cutter, bowled it on a back of a length outside off. Warner had to manufacture all the pace on his own as he tried to hoist it off the back-foot over extra-cover. Ends up slicing it off the outside-edge towards backward point. Jadeja moves to his right and clasps it before tumbling over. Warner c Ravindra Jadeja b Ishant 122(113) [4s-9 6s-3]
21.2 -
Gurkeerat Singh to Warner, out S Marsh Run Out!! 1 run completed. Oh! What was that? It's a fortunate dismissal for India, and how unfortunate is that guy, Shaun Marsh. Warner smashed the punch through extra cover and Umesh rifled a throw towards Gurkeerat. The throw was perfect but Gurkeerat didn't pick it at all. Just that he had his body behind the ball and to his delight, the ball thuds his left knee and deflects onto the stumps. Marsh is caught well short. S Marsh run out (U Yadav/Gurkeerat Singh) 7(14)
14.5 -
R Dhawan to Bailey, out Caught by Ishant!! First ODI wicket for Dhawan! A soft dismissal for Bailey, this was a short of a length delivery on off, Bailey was looking to work it towards the on-side, closed the face of the bat a tad too early, the ball looped over the bowler's head - off the leading edge, Ishant gets across to his left at mid-on and holds on to the dolly. Advantage India now, Australia have lost their third wicket. Bailey c Ishant b R Dhawan 6(14)
11.5 -
Bumrah to Smith, out Caught by Rohit!! Poor shot from Smith and Bumrah celebrates his first scalp in ODIs. This was a good short ball, just outside off and around throat-high, Smith wasn't picking his short deliveries well, he goes back and looks to muscle it over mid-wicket, doesn't get hold of the shot and it's a simple head high catch for Rohit at short mid-wicket. Bumrah is chuffed to bits, so are his mates. Smith c Rohit b Bumrah 28(37) [4s-3]
1.0 -
Ishant to Finch, out Lbw!! Ishant has struck in his first over! Finch misjudges one, he was playing for the away-going ball, this one nipped back in after pitching outside off, he doesn't offer a shot, was half-forward as he let it go, the ball thuds into his pads, around knee-high and in front of off, it was going on and hitting at least the off stump. As plumb as it gets, India have struck very early. Finch lbw b Ishant 6(6) [4s-1]
49.3 -
Ishant to Mitchell Marsh, 2 runs, there it is! Mitchell Marsh has his maiden ODI hundred. Look at him go. Completes the second and immediately takes off his helmet. Waves his bat to all corners of the ground. The older brother is delighted, he is on his feet applauding. So is the entire Aussie dressing room. Marsh also lets out a roar. Coming to the ball, full and on the pads, flicked to deep mid-wicket
48.3 -
Bumrah to Mitchell Marsh, 1 run, full and straight, Marsh eases it down the ground, thought about the second, but has to be content with one
37.1 -
Bumrah to Mitchell Marsh, 1 run, pats this leg-cutter in front of mid-off and skates to the other end to bring up a well jotted fifty. The good thing about this knock has been that unlike Canberra, he has never allowed the momentum to slack
36.3 -
Ishant to Mitchell Marsh, 1 run, punched on the rise through the cover region. Leaned towards the back of a length delivery after moving inches forward and hit it in the gap for the single
35.4 -
Bumrah to Warner, 1 run, knocked back down the pitch, deflects off the stumps at the other end down to long-on
35.3 -
Bumrah to Warner, 2 runs, he's done it! Maiden ODI hundred against India for David Warner. Removes his helmet, does his traditional leaping gig and punches the air in delight. There's no stopping him. Glided it behind backward point and scampered across. Always going to come back for two. And then dedicates it to his recently born second daughter doing a little cradle gesture
19.5 -
Ishant to Warner, 1 run, back of a length on leg-stump. Asking Warner to get to his fifty with ease. Warner obliges and flicks to fine leg, milestone ticked!
