00:00Edge, this time gone. Good set of hands, Aaron Finch. What about the damage Mitch Stark's doing at the top of the order?
00:14Crashed, and that'll be four. It didn't miss. It was Faulkner at backward point by much. That's a boundary.
00:21Up and away. Have some of that. All the way.
00:32Started well in both Mundane Nationals. And it continues. So, Sandu's got his first wicket. It hasn't taken long either.
00:43He can certainly hit the ball hard. Oh, that should be out. That's Coley. Jumping back in the crease again. And he's outsmarted himself.
00:53It's a big wicket for Australia. A massive wicket.
01:01Oh, well struck. That's going all the way. He's latched onto that row at Sharma.
01:08He must have.
01:11Nice. Straight. That's good batting. Just in the last five minutes, Suresh Rain has started to look comfortable.
01:20Get involved. Show your energy. Show your athleticism.
01:24Given that something, he's given it everything. What a way to go to 50.
01:32Oh, they take it to him first up. This outfield's fast and hard. It's four.
01:45Has he got this one? Yes, he has. Sliced up and over the infield. The top spin makes it difficult. And it's made it eventually.
01:56Yeah, he won't want a game off that. He's in such good form. He'll want to play everything. He'll play a club game.
02:04Oh, again it's worked well. Short and on the line of leg stumps. Not the place to bowl to Rainer.
02:13383 was too much. Oh, inside edge. Very handy. And that's 90 now for Sharma.
02:23I can't believe that's missed the ball.
02:25Oh, glided beautifully. Faulkner turns quickly for that one because that is class. Like the one before.
02:33Yes, everyone's got the big shots and loves to play the big shots. But the other thing is, you've got to be able to play the big shots.
02:39Everyone's got the big shots and loves to play the big shots. But the art of being able to get bat on ball and get off strike is huge.
02:46And out. There's the breakthrough. Straight after he gets 50, he went for the big one down the ground.
02:55Not a good time to go.
02:59Thompson. Doney's away.
03:02They've made you aware of the ball just starting to move around a little.
03:06That's the third man. It's another one day in the National 100.
03:12Full of class. Most importantly, it's been an intelligent, intelligent innings.
03:20Ganguly, the neat hundred. Faulkner into the attack.
03:23Ganguly, the neat hundred. Faulkner into the attack.
03:27And that'll run away fine for a boundary.
03:30That's pretty easy for Doney.
03:33No, it's been given runs.
03:35The Australians, two and a half overs of extra bowling and runs.
03:39And that's gone fine. Too fine for the third man.
03:44Even David Warner couldn't get there.
03:47Seeing from Sharma.
03:49Boldy. Chopped it on.
03:52Mitchell Stark. It's another important wicket for Australia.
03:58Oh, close. Maybe too much. No. Given him.
04:02Once again, full. Straight. Low on the pads. Stark's now got four.
04:10Oh, he's got enough on that too.
04:12Great hitting. Into the gap. Over the rope.
04:15Great finish to the over by Sharma.
04:18The 250's up.
04:20There's a square leg back. Three on the offside in the deep.
04:23Full toss. Has he got enough? No, he hasn't.
04:25Straight to Glenn Maxwell. Mitchell Stark's got five.
04:30Well batted.
04:32Boldy. Don't worry about Pfeiffer.
04:35Mitchell Stark's now got six.
04:39One back on the offside for Ashland.
04:42Can't get that on ball.
04:45Gonna get a bye, I think, to finish.
04:47That's an excellent over from James Faulkner. Just five from it.
04:51India finish at eight for 267. Run rate of 5.34.
04:56And it's time for our New South Wales and Victorian viewers.
05:00You're gonna leave us now for the news.
05:02We'll see you back here in half an hour for the Australian run chase.
05:06That'll be four. A little bit streaky.
05:11But you'll take that when you start in your innings.
05:16Responsible for letting the authorities know at the time.
05:20Oh, that's been crunched.
05:23That would have felt good off this new blade.
05:26Scorching the grass.
05:29Very nice. Glad you're enjoying it.
05:32Here's Shammy.
05:33And there goes Shammy.
05:35So, yeah, that was too expensive. Shammy into the attack.
05:39And that was as easy as your life.
05:46And he helped someone sway. That's just a scoop.
05:50So this bat's working for him.
05:55He's off to the back there.
05:58Oh, this is up in the air. This should be out.
06:00Underneath it. And overall it's gone.
06:04Suresh Rainer's got the catch. That is a massive wicket for India.
06:08He's a cagey young bowler.
06:11That could well be four.
06:14It's a good sign that for Shane Watson. He's under the spinner early.
06:18What he needs to do, Shane Watson, get himself moving.
06:22Second boundary.
06:26Oh, Watson down the ground.
06:28Oh, Watson down the ground.
06:31With power.
06:33How well is he playing tonight? He loves the MCG.
06:37And he's lighting it up. One for 98.
06:43Finch backs away. Cuts through the offside.
06:47There's three men on the ring. No one behind.
06:50Very quickly into position to play this shot.
06:54He's working out where he can score the boundary.
06:59Oh, he's gone.
07:02Patel's got one on the stumps at the right pace for the sweet shot to be missed.
07:07Tried for the big shot.
07:09Just as we're talking about rotating the strike and singles.
07:13Just bit off a little more than he could chew there, Watson.
07:19Very well placed.
07:21From around about middle and off.
07:23Takes Aaron Finch to 50.
07:26Simplest strokes.
07:28Well executed.
07:35Oh, yes.
07:38Oh, there's a man in form.
07:40Steve Smith.
07:43This now as well. Not hurried.
07:45In control of his game and feels like the team's in control of this game.
07:48Oh, well placed. That's what I meant about Steve Smith's hands.
07:57Lovely gift he has.
08:02Finching straight.
08:04And long.
08:06He likes the look of Suresh Raina.
08:09Oh, Finchissimo.
08:11Straight down the ground.
08:14Straight down the ground.
08:21What a shot that is.
08:23That is class.
08:25Steve Smith is all class.
08:28Take another look at that after the break. 2 for 191.
08:33Finch has been the most prominent with twos.
08:37He's 10 twos.
08:39Normally there's more than that.
08:40Steve Smith.
08:42His innings comes to an end.
08:44Ravi Ashwin at midweekend.
08:47That was another one of those slow ball bounces from Shami.
08:50Just 49 to win.
08:53Is it to try and get it over and done with quickly or just to give Glenn Maxwell a bit of a hit after missing out in Sydney?
08:58Oh, that's out.
09:00Yadda back into the attack with success.
09:03Finch is cut short.
09:08Two new batsmen.
09:11The unit five and over. It's another game now.
09:17Oh, he's ducked that.
09:19It's hit the periscope and fallen safely.
09:24How lucky can you get?
09:27Completely done over and somehow it flies into safety.
09:32Again, they've kept both men back down the ground for George Bailey.
09:37Oh, I think he's got him.
09:39He's not only clipped his thigh pad on the way through to Dhoni's gloves, but he's stumped him as well.
09:46Moment of magic from MS Dhoni.
09:50Yeah, but you'd take a leg side catch anyway.
09:53That's just as good in that scenario.
09:55Oh, he's smashed that.
09:58It's come from nowhere.
10:01Maxwell goes to 11.
10:05Stick or twist.
10:08Out he comes again.
10:10It's flat enough to stay out of the hands of the fielder.
10:13Ten off the last two.
10:15An eventful over. Twelve runs and a wicket.
10:18Now there's 27 to win, off 36.
10:27He's got him.
10:29Nicely bowled, Kumar.
10:31Chipped it back and it took a good catch too.
10:34He judged that well.
10:39Heaves it away. There's the boundary.
10:42One bounce and over the rope.
10:45Faulkner, the finisher. There he goes. He launches.
10:49Here we go.
10:51Hits it through the offside. No, he doesn't.
10:54Hit the stumps. No.
10:56Single.
10:58Had to hit the stumps there.
11:00Give it up. Basman have given it up.
11:03He said finally up inside the circle.
11:06Third man up inside the circle.
11:10Through the offside.
11:12Brad Haddon at his best.
11:16Absolute screamer, this.
11:22He's got a find. He's done it again, James Faulkner.
11:25Boy, he's a handy cricketer, this guy.
11:28Just gets you home, doesn't he?
11:30In Manhattan, they've done a really good job here.
11:33They've added 21 for this last wicket.
11:35They've got Australia over the line.
11:37They're two from two in this series.
11:39Well, it's been a terrific game.
11:41A terrific chase by Australia.
11:43India of Rumban Club.
