- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR11.5 Watson is out. Will the entertainment end? The crowd roar in delight. It was a nice delivery, much slower through the air and Watson is beaten by the lack of pace. he went for the big slog sweep and missed it completely. The ball landed, winked at him and gently pegged back the off stump. 110/115.3 Ponting is not happy but he has to go. It was the full delivery on the middle and Ponting went for the sweep and missed it completely. That looked pretty close unless of course the ball was turning away sharply. 129/235.4 Clatter! Mortaza has knocked out the off stump. The Batting Powerplay strikes. It was the full delivery, just short of the blockhole, on the off stump line, Clarke shuffled across and went for the big across-the-line swing. Mistake. No wood on leather but the opposite. 231/418.6 Caught and bowled! He took two steps down the track and ended up chipping it back to the bowler. Greg Mathews murmurs on air, "What a wasted opportunity" Tame dismissal but the bowler has to be given credit for getting the ball to dip 142/349.1 Looked pretty plumb. Full, straight, and on the middle. Hussey went for the paddle sweep but missed. Super-cool knock this. His third ton. 350/837.2 Another one goes down in the batting Powerplay and wicket no 150 for Mortaza Congrats sir. It was the full delivery and it was hit straight to mid-off. Fergy has combusted. 239/544.4 Holes out to deep midwicket. Mitch show is over. It was a length delivery on the middle and Mitchell Johnson slogged it straight to deep midwicket. 309/646.4 loud cry for lbw and the ump has raised the finger. He went for a reverse sweep but missed. 320/7Extras8 (lb 3, nb 1, w 4)TOTAL361/8 (50 Overs, RR: 7.22)Did not bat: JL PattinsonFall of wickets: 1-110 (Shane Watson, 11.5 ov), 2-129 (Ricky Ponting, 15.3 ov), 3-142 (Steven Smith, 18.6 ov), 4-231 (Michael Clarke, 35.4 ov), 5-239 (Callum Ferguson, 37.2 ov), 6-309 (Mitchell Johnson, 44.4 ov), 7-320 (Tim Paine, 46.4 ov), 8-350 (Michael Hussey, 49.1 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.3 Silence. Screaming yorker - full delivery actually, short of the blockhole - on the middle stump line and Tamim tries to get down the bat in a hurry. Too late. Clatter! 43/130.5 Imrul Kayes has fallen after a brave fine knock. Siddons looks shocked. It was a full delivery angling away from Kayes who goes for the off drive. He reaches out, away from his body and get a thin edge. The debutant James Pattinson gets his moment under the sun. 179/234.4 Nafees is done by the slower one. A lovely change of pace and Nafees picked it up very late. He lunged out in the end and ended up stabbing it straight up in the air. Watson came in and took it around short-leg position. Australia tighten the screws. 197/338.1 Pouched at short fine-leg! Shakib shuffles across the stumps and tries the paddle lap around the corner but doesn't get the elevation. 221/438.6 Spontaneous combustion. It was slightly short delivery and Mush plays a very weak pull. The ball lobs to midwicket. Double strike for Watto 223/547.1 Dolly. Kapali tried to heave the length delivery over mid-on but didn't connect properly. It lobbed gently to mid-on. 270/6Extras16 (b 2, lb 5, w 9)TOTAL295/6 (50 Overs, RR: 5.9)Fall of wickets: 1-43 (Tamim Iqbal, 4.3 ov), 2-179 (Imrul Kayes, 30.5 ov), 3-197 (Shahriar Nafees, 34.4 ov), 4-221 (Shakib Al Hasan, 38.1 ov), 5-223 (Mushfiqur Rahim, 38.6 ov), 6-270 (Alok Kapali, 47.1 ov)
