Chirag Gupta: "Feeling bad for Christian, bowled good yorkers throughout the over except the last 2 bowls which he just missed by fine margins and Turner took full advantage of those little margins!"
Rags: "Ash Turner closes it out. Surprising Aussies chose White and not Turner for the ODI team...."
