Yorker, outside off, driven down to the right of long on for one.

T Natarajan to Moises Henriques
Misfield and a boundary! It is Sanju in the deep. Really agonizing for the bowler. It was outside off. Henriques cuts it to point and takes off for a quick single. The fielder there has a shy at the striker's end but it was well wide of the stumps. It goes to Samson in the deep on the leg side. He fumbles and the ball trickles away to the boundary. 5 runs in total.

T Natarajan to D'Arcy Short

The Natarajan speciality - Yorker, on off, Moises Henriques can only jam it out to cover for a single.

W
T Natarajan to D'Arcy Short
OUT! TAKEN! India in the game. The set batsman is gone. Big wicket for India. Cross seam full ball around off, Short looks to slog it over long on but does not get his timing right. It goes to Hardik at long on who takes it by coming forward a few steps. Australia still need 49 runs in 30 balls.

Washington Sundar to Matthew Wade
Short ball, defended back on the track.

Washington Sundar to Matthew Wade
Tossed up outside off, Wade looks to reverse paddle that one but fails to connect as well as he would have liked. The ball takes the shoulder of the bat and falls back on the pitch.

Washington Sundar to Matthew Wade
On off, clipped to mid-wicket. Matthew Wade comes back for the second.

Washington Sundar to Matthew Wade
Very nicely bowled. Full and around off, Matthew can only drive it wide of the bowler, to long off, for a single.

Washington Sundar to Moises Henriques
Short on off, MH backs away and cuts but finds point. Very well bowled from Sundar. He does not get a wicket today but finishes off well, with just 16 runs fron his 4 overs. The hosts need 46 runs in 24 balls.

Yuzvendra Chahal to Matthew Wade
On the pads, swept to Pandey at deep backward square leg for a single.

1
Yuzvendra Chahal to Moises Henriques
Tossed up well outside off, a good ball from Yuzvendra. Moises too does well to reach out to it and strike it to cover for one. He was down the track as well, Henriques. Does well to reach out and play.

1
Yuzvendra Chahal to Matthew Wade
Tosses this far outside off, Matthew Wade sweeps it uppishly but safely to deep mid-wicket for a single.
16.5
1
Yuzvendra Chahal to Moises Henriques
Full and outside off, Henriques goes inside out over covers. It lands on a bounce to Kohli in the deep. So, just the single.

Yuzvendra Chahal to Matthew Wade
OUT! TAKEN! What a spell of bowling this has been from Chahal. It was the last ball of his spell and he gets a wicket there as well. Matthew Wade has not had a good day. Tossed up around off, Wade sits down and mows a slog sweep. He hits is uppishly and straight down the throat of the Indian skipper at deep mid-wicket. Kohli does not drop this one. The Kangaroos need 40 runs in 18 balls still.

Deepak Chahar to Moises Henriques
Deepak starts off with a slower bouncer outside off, Moises Henriques waits and then strokes it through the covers for one.

Deepak Chahar to Moises Henriques
OUT! LBW! Moises is dismissed. Fullish on middle, Henriques had moved to the off side a touch. He looks to swing it to the leg side but misses to get hit on the pads. An appeal for LBW is put and the umpire, Rod Tucker, raises his finger. Henriques gets to the other end and then flashes the 'T'. It is taken upstairs. Only bat can save Moises Henriques. But there is no bat, as confirmed from Hot Spot and Snicko. Ball Tracker just states the obvious - THREE REDS! The 6th wicket is down for the Aussies. They need 36 runs in 14 balls still.

T Natarajan to Mitchell Starc
OUT! BOWLED! And the yorker Natarajan cleans his left-arm counterpart from Australia. The angle is very good for a left-arm seamer. What a debut he is having. It was a yorker on off and middle, Starc gives himself some room and looks to go big over covers. But he misses and the ball crashes into the sticks.

T Natarajan to Mitchell Swepson
Another yorker, it was outside off, Mitchell swings through the line but gets a toe edge. It goes short of Rahul behind the stumps. A dot. It was not a catch though.

T Natarajan to Sean Abbott
Pretty smart bowling. Saw that Abbott was looking to play the ramp shot. Natarajan bowls it well outside off. Sean Abbott shuffles across and goes through with the shot but misses.

SIX! This is bound to happen. At the end of the innings. Short ball, Sean swings well over the deep mid-wicket boundary for a six.

Mohammed Shami to Sean Abbott
That is cheeky. Full and outside off, Abbott gets across and paddles it over the keeper's head. It falls short of the long stop boundary and three runs are taken. This has become a very popular shot these days.

Mohammed Shami to Mitchell Swepson
SIX! Where does this one go? All the way. Full and around off, Swepson clears his front foot and lofts it over mid off. Looks to be a catch for Pandya at long off.... he stretches but the ball goes well over him in the end.

Mohammed Shami to Mitchell Swepson
FOUR! An effort too late. Back-to-back wins for India at the Manuka Oval. Full and around off, Mitchell Swepson clears his front leg and launches it over covers. Hardik Pandya runs in to his left from long off but cannot cut it off. A boundary results but THE INDIANS WIN BY 11 RUNS!
