    4.4 gobbled up! Smith very nearly lost the ball at first slip but he manages to hold on. Rohit gone for 13. This was full outside off, a scrambled-seam delivery, and Rohit threw his bat at this trying to drive over cover. Instead it takes a big edge, flying quickly to Smith, who well backwards while completing the catch on his second take. Smith suggests that the ball wobbled en route to him in the air, thus making the catch tougher. Both openers gone now and Mitchell Starc continues to be menacing with the new ball 32/2
    0.3 loose shot, big wicket! Starc goes full outside off, and Gill pushes his hands at this, playing away from his body, and that has flown straight to point for a catch at chest height. Replays show Gill screaming in anguish after seeing his fate. This was almost ditto to his dismissal in the first ODI 3/1

    15.2 Given lbw! Kohli walks off. He missed a straight one! Full and straight at middle and leg, maybe the faintest of seam movement in but he wiped across his front pad trying to whip it square and was hit on the front shin. Not a tough decision. Kohli knew he couldn't waste a review. 71/6
    4.5 is that a first-baller again? Seems so! No point reviewing that, Suryakumar, and that's exactly what Virat Kohli tells him after a chat. Welcomed with a fullish ball on off that swings into middle rather late. Suryakumar went for an on drive from an off-stump line, while the ball hit him on the knee roll. India's top order failing quite like the first ODI with Suryakumar registering a golden duck for the second game in the row 32/3
    8.4 Rahul has been trapped in front! Starc releases this ball and it seems like it will land closer to off, but it ends up shaping in from middle stump. Rahul tries to flick across the line but he is genuinely late into bringing the bat down. Pins him around the knee roll and it is given out. Rahul reviews after consultation but this is plumb. Crashing into top of middle and leg. Starc has four and India are in big trouble here. 48/4
    9.2 Steve Smith with an absolute stunner! Good length ball just outside off and Pandya goes poking once again away from his body. Flies off the edge to Smith's right at first slip, but he sticks the right hand out and it stays in! Absolute blinder from Smith with the ball significantly away from his body, but he keeps his palms soft to pocket that catch with a whole lot of swag. India are sinking 49/5
    19.3 caught behind! Tried to run it to deep third and was undone by extra bounce! Good length, angled into a fourth stump line, he tried to open the face and glide it to deep third, the extra bounce and pace hurried him, he got a thick edge off the gloves and Carey takes an easy catch moving to his left 91/7

    24.4 pulled straight to forward square! A good short ball angled into off, it cramps Kuldeep as he tries to place a pull shot with no real power and just chips it to Head at forward square who takes a simple catch 103/8
    24.5 caught behind! Full and seam up wide of off, Shami is stuck on the crease he pokes at it with his hands and gets a thin nick through to Carey. Abbott on a hat-trick 103/9
    25.6 Bowled him! This misses the back leg and crashes into the top of off! Very similar to the last delivery. A touch fuller angled in from wide around the wicket, he's caught on the crease playing the wrong line, it beats the edge and clips the top of off. What a delivery to claim his 9th ODI five-wicket haul 117/10
