India v Australia - turning points

102.1 Ashwin to Siddle, OUT, bowled'im. Ashwin has a five-for. Sensational stats: nine five-fors in 16 Tests. Finally breaks through Siddle's defence. This is a natural variation from the wicket. An offbreak, on a length outside off, Siddle defends, but the ball doesn't turn as much as the balls have been turning, and the off stump is flattened
PM Siddle b Ashwin 51 (136b 4x4 0x6) SR: 37.50

25.1 Lyon to Pujara, OUT, timbah. Just like Siddle got out. Length ball, offbreak, outside off, Pujara does everything right in defence, but the ball doesn't turn enough and hits the top of off
CA Pujara b Lyon 52 (76b 5x4 0x6) SR: 68.42

27.5 Lyon to Kohli, OUT, given out lbw. Well bowled, but Kohli plays across the line too. Length ball, on middle and off, turns back in slightly. Kohli is stuck on the crease and looking to work this to leg. The ball misses the outside edge and hits him dead in front
V Kohli lbw b Lyon 1 (8b 0x4 0x6) SR: 12.50

40.4 Siddle to Vijay, OUT, unplayable delivery. You can;t do anything with these. This has pitched short of a length, and hit a crack and exploded towards Vijay's head. Vijay has taken his eye off it, and throws his hands at it to avoid being hit. Off the glove it lobs to the keeper
M Vijay c Wade b Siddle 57 (123b 8x4 0x6) SR: 46.34

47.5 Lyon to Tendulkar, OUT, that's dead plumb. Lyon has his man. Short of a length, on off, skids back in sharply, past the inside edge, hits him on the knee roll, plumb in front and on the back foot
SR Tendulkar lbw b Lyon 32 (53b 5x4 0x6) SR: 60.37

52.5 Pattinson to Dhoni, OUT, pulled straight to midwicket, a bit squarer than the usual midwicket. Dhoni gets a short ball, which is a little slow, and he has deposited it straight down the throat of the man, and it's the captain himself
MS Dhoni c Watson b Pattinson 24 (23b 2x4 0x6) SR: 104.34
