2.4 to AC Gilchrist, short ball on off and Gilchrist goes for the hook, not quite getting over the ball as it came on to him faster than antichipated and he scoops up to Yuvraj at mid-on who takes the catch cat-cool. 16/1 4.2 to RT Ponting, Ponting goes! The batsman looked to pull a short one round from outside off, the ball not quite getting up, and the inside edge crashes hard on to the sticks. 19/2 | ||||||||||
| Ishant Sharma | 8 | 0 | 32 | 1 | 4.00 | 30 | 3 | 0 | 1 | 0 |
5.5 to MJ Clarke, fabulous delivery from Ishant, taking the inside edge as Clarke goes to forward defend but is beaten by the inswing, the ball coming back in off the seam from outside off and the pace, and Dhoni takes the catch. 24/3 | ||||||||||
| Irfan Pathan | 7 | 0 | 63 | 1 | 9.00 | 17 | 11 | 0 | 1 | 0 |
48.6 to B Lee, Rohit takes the catch now as Lee drives very hard and high over to long-off, opening his shoulders but not quite getting the right trajectory. 231/8 | ||||||||||
| Harbhajan Singh | 10 | 0 | 38 | 2 | 3.80 | 32 | 2 | 0 | 2 | 0 |
23.1 to A Symonds, outside off, some room, and Symonds drives up straight and hard aerially out to Kumar in the deep on the on-side, deep midwicket in fact. 124/4 27.3 to ML Hayden, Hayden gets down early to play the sweep to a full ball, and sends it just behind square for a good catch by Chawla who keeps his head and hangs on well. 135/5 | ||||||||||

38.5 to JR Hopes, offers some width outside off, Hopes shapes to cut to point, and nicks a fine edge on the top of the blade, Dhoni begins to roar before he's even taken the ball. 173/6 | ||||||||||
