37.2 to PD Collingwood, the slower ball from McGrath, Collingwood picks it but can't execute this lofted shot as well as he might and it's hit straight to Johnson at long on. 168/4 46.3 to JWM Dalrymple, down the leg side, Dalymple tries to hook this and misses. Gilchrist politely asks the umpire who, after a couple of seconds, raises his finger! What a shocker that is. Replays indicate the ball hit his helmet, and Dalrymple trudges off fairly fuming. 211/7 | ||||||||||

5.3 to AJ Strauss, . 20/1 9.4 to MP Vaughan, . 47/2 49.2 to J Lewis, what a catch! A full toss which Lewis sliced off a thick outside edge just to Ponting's right at backward point, and he dived brilliantly taking the ball horizontally, one-handed. Quite superb fielding. 232/8 | ||||||||||
| 10 | 0 | 58 | 1 | 5.80 | 29 | 6 | 0 | 2 | 1 | |
43.4 to KP Pietersen, another vast swipe ... and it's swirling, swirling, swirling down to Andrew Symonds, just inside the long-on boundary! A massive breakthrough for Australia, and Pietersen is gone, just when he was looking at his most dangerous. 206/5 | ||||||||||

17.3 to IR Bell, Gottim! And you have to say that was coming! Johnson's been turning the screw superbly since he came on, and this time Bell couldn't hold himself back - down the track, and a loose drive straight to mid-off, comfortably lodged in Mike Hussey's midriff. 73/3 44.5 to PA Nixon, gone! Full, straight and that would've plucked out his leg stump. Excellent length from Johnson and with a touch of away swing to the left hander who, trying to work it to leg, was beaten by pace...and up goes the finger. 207/6 | ||||||||||

18.1 to ML Hayden, gone! Well bowled, Panesar; he saw Hayden lunging down the pitch, sent it wider of the batsman who drove and got a thick outside edge to Nixon behind the stumps. Super piece of bowling, that. 113/2 | ||||||||||
