    10.2 slog-sweep, top-edged! Sam Curran had to judge that well at deep backward square, he was slow coming forward, but made up the ground well, locking his elbows as he dived forward, and preventing the ball from bobbling out. Short's short and very sharp knock is done 118/3
    5.6 and he's gone now! Another short ball, this time it's a big top edge that has height but not distance and deep square leg settles under it 86/1
    6.4 done him! Rashid strikes. Full at off stump, Marsh has a heave across the line and misses. 89/2
    16.4 goes for the reverse-scoop, Curran pings back the off stump! Clever bowling, kept the pace off the ball, it never quite arrived as Inglis waited and waited for impact, and hopped over his blade into the top of the stump 165/6
    12.2 lines up the reverse, gets in a tangle! If there's no bat, this is very close. England review. There is indeed no bat, the ball skimmed below both bat and gloves... That is smashing middle and off! Well bowled from Livingstone, it didn't turn much but just gripped enough to beat Stoinis' advances, out of the front of the hand 132/4
    12.3 So full again! That's surely close! Not out, says the umpire, but England are already celebrating as they review! A pre-meditated sweep... it's leg-adjacent, but is it straight enough? No bat involved... That's pitched leg, hitting leg! 132/5

    18.1 Team hat-trick! Saqib copies Archer's direct approach, impeccable length again on the yorker, slingier and swingier, wrecking middle and leg. Green is gone, and from 118 for 2 in 11th, Australia are in danger of being bowled out! 172/9
    17.5 bang! Full and straight, Abbott tries something different, walking to the off-side, hoping to lift the length over backward square. But it's clean through the batter, splattering middle and leg on the full. Australia are becalmed, and some 172/7
    17.6 yorker! That was proper wheels from Archer, speared in at the base of off, fast and direct, no need for swing, just route one fast bowling! Utterly pinpoint, and Australia are in danger of being bowled out 172/8
    19.3 Full and straight, muscled out to deep cover, a fast flat return from Cox, and this is surely out. Yep, gone by a foot, gathered on the bounce by Salt who flattens the stumps, as Zampa hurries back for the second run 179/10

    5.6 taken on the rope! Excellent catch. Short of a length, Salt plays a swivel pull and couldn't have picked out Matt Short much better at deep square. A matter of a couple of metres between out and six 46/3
    1.3 finds deep backward square! Hazlewood followed him towards leg stump, Jacks looks to whip it off the hip and can't get the distance. Smart bowling 13/1
    4.3 what a catch! That's a stunner from David. Amazing grab. Cox launched this miles into the leg side, not perfectly timed but appeared to have the distance to clear the field. David sprinted, then dived full length and held it in his finger tips over his shoulders. The third umpire checks it, and confirms that David did brilliantly to cling on 40/2
    13.1 inside-edged on the full length! Hazlewood is so good. Line and length, extra nip off the seam, gets big on Livingstone, who is stuck on the crease. It's two big breakthroughs, and now it's probably curtains... 108/6
    7.4 through him! Skids on, Bethell playing back to pull a ball that wasn't that short. Takes out leg stump 52/4
    12.4 short, clothed his pull to backward square! Quite the anticlimax, the Utilita Bowl sounds like the Wankhede after a Tendulkar dismissal. A loopy lob, Zampa slides round. The end of a perky but unfulfilled knock 106/5

    15.3 gottim! That will be that for England's hopes. Zampa bags the man Australia needed. Quicker, flatter, pushed through to Overton's pads. He made room for another long-levered drive, but instead deflected the ball onto his stumps 128/8
    14.1 holes out to deep midwicket! Archer gave it a go, but never got hold of that. An urgent slap across the line, high on the bat, Short judges it well 113/7
    18.3 Green's long frame clings onto a blinder! Rashid went for broke over the off-side, very high on the bat into the covers, and that was a fine full-stretch grab, leaping backwards and taking an Aussie-rules-style mark as he celebrates 142/9

    19.2 Splat! And that is that! Mahmood dances at his crease, looking for something dinky over fine leg, and gets his timber re-arranged by the full length on off stump 151/10
