29.3 to RG Sharma, holes out to fine leg! Starc is giggling. Rohit can't believe it. That was a poor delivery, 135kph, short on the hip, Rohit swivels on a pull but hits it relatively flat to fine leg and Hazlewood takes the catch easily. Rohit didn't middle it. He was trying to hit that for six. 135/3 49.5 to Arshdeep Singh, Arshdeep gets beaten by length and the reverse swing in. Trimmed leg bail. Length ball on fourth stump, Arshdeep made too much room. This time he didn't close to touching it. 263/9

6.1 to Shubman Gill, Dances down, looks to take Bartlett over mid-off first ball of the over. Doesn't get to the pitch of the fullish ball on off, plinks a towie straight to mid-off. 17/1 6.5 to V Kohli, That is O-U-T!!! Oh my god, has there been a more plumb lbw. There's a 15-second chat with Rohit before Kohli leaves. For most other batters, that'd have been a two-second decision. The pitch, that has been spicy with the bounce, decides this is the time to skid one through off a length. Bartlett the beneficiary after landing it around off. Across-the-line flick, Kohli's Kulche-Chole shot, beaten. Front pad hit. Goodnight nurse! Kohli gets applauded off the field still, acknowledges the crowd close to the boundary. 17/2 41.5 to Washington Sundar, Talk about an unfair game. Hazlewood bowled jaffas for fun, got nothing. Bartlett goes leg-stump half-volley and times the pants off the flick. Ball goes slowly and flat to deep square leg. It was like the ball and the fielder were meant to find each other. 213/6
Mitchell Owen	2	0	20	0	10.00	5	1	2	0	0
Adam Zampa	10	0	60	4	6.00	25	7	0	0	0
32.4 to SS Iyer, dragged on! Zampa wins the battle! Leg break tossed up outside off, 85kph, he tries to launch again and gets a thick inside edge onto the stumps! Huge breakthrough. Shreyas lost his shape. 160/4 36.2 to KL Rahul, Rahul's proactivity isn't enough to hit his way out of trouble. Knew there'll be an adjustment in length after dancing down and clearing extra cover. But this shortish ball was flat and stump-to-stump. Finished on off stump. Rahul had his weight back and his hand speed was good as he went square-on and tried to pull square. Beaten all ends up. Ball goes under bat, crashes off. Zampa pumps his fist. Ravi Shastri on comms calls it a flipper. Was bowled from beyond the perpendicular. 174/5 44.1 to AR Patel, A routine boundary catch with tall elegance. Starc, on the long-off boundary, took it a few feet inside. His chest was facing the left and the feet were shuffling sideways. Took a couple of controlled crab-crawls, tossed the ball high before momentum took him over the ropes. Then came back in, gobbled the newly manufactured dolly. Was a full ball around fifth, Axar played the lofted off drive, got a decent connection. 223/7 44.6 to K Nitish Kumar Reddy, Must be fun being Zampa. Knows exactly where to land the ball and how to force a hand in the batter's shot selection. Got Reddy dancing down with the width but there was little flight to work with.. 226/8

45.5 to MA Starc, Outsidest of outside chances remain for India as Australia's future No. 3 gives catching practice to backward point (crying face emoji). Slower one into the pitch. Chandan not sure. Maybe it was just a pace-on ball into the pitch that didn't come off the pitch at pace. Looks like scramble-seam on replay. Hard length, just outside off, Starc wanted to use the pace and go up and over third with a upper cut/ramp. Got no pace to work with. 260/8
Arshdeep Singh	8.2	0	41	2	4.92	29	2	1	3	0
7.2 to MR Marsh, Surprisingly tame dismissal given the wild swipe. Marsh dances down while making room and looked to launch the length ball, angling away from him, over mid-off. Got a thin edge to the keeper. 30/1 44.3 to XC Bartlett, Toed... and t-a-k-e-n! Gill runs back from mid-off, watches the ball coming down from over the shoulder... (like that James Acaster song) and times his deceleration to perfection. India still in with a slight outside chance. Was a shortish ball outside off. Bartlett opened his stance and had a swipe with the flat bat. Not in his reach. 255/7
Harshit Rana	8	0	59	2	7.37	18	5	2	2	0
12.2 to TM Head, Should be out. Yeah, dolly for Kohli coming in from mid-on. Was standing close. Was a length ball around leg and middle. Head's feet were sliding back in the crease as he tried to flick the ball square. Played well in front of the body as the ball may have stuck in the pitch. Ballooned right up for a simple catch. 54/2 35.6 to MW Short, holes out to deep square! Good bouncer, hurries Short as he takes on the pull shot, he gets a top edge as he can't control it trying to pull from high to low and it carries all the way to Siraj on the deep square rope. He holds onto this one. 187/5 See all photos
Washington Sundar	7	0	37	2	5.28	16	1	1	1	0
26.6 to AT Carey, bowled trying to sweep! Great bowling. Poor shot selection. Carey had been itching to sweep and India's spinners never left the stumps to him, he premeditated a sweep with deep midwicket vacant and Washington fires through a full 95kph ball that skids on through the gate and crashes into middle and leg. 132/4 42.3 to MJ Owen, Long-on in play, long-on taketh catch. Owen looks to take on a ball that was there to be hit - shortish outside off. But the contact wasn't good enough as he tried to pull it against the angle. Basically drag it from outside off. Floats a top edge to long-on. 246/6
Nitish Kumar Reddy	3	0	24	0	8.00	7	2	1	0	0
Axar Patel	10	0	52	1	5.20	26	3	1	0	0
21.4 to MT Renshaw, bowled him! Renshaw runs past one! 84kph, lovely loop and drop, Renshaw skips out and shuffles leg side to launch over mid-off and it slides on past the edge and crashes into middle and leg. 109/3
