Michael Neser to Roston Chase
OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Michael Neser gets his first wicket and breaks a gritty stand of Chase and Da Silva. The ploy to push Carey close to the stumps has done wonders here for the Aussies. It is a length ball, around off, turning away a touch. Chase stays back and tries to flick it away. Although, all he gets is a thick outside edge. Alex Carey though gets a bit fortunate as the ball hits him on his shoulder, but still not taking away his presence of mind to gather the ball, as he goes down on both knees. It needed something special to break this stand and Carey just provided us with a moment of brilliance.

OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Another blinder fro Alex Carey here.

OUT! TIMBER! Nathan Lyon gets his first wicket. Australia now only need 1 wicket for a win here. It is tossed up, wide of off. Alzarri Joseph steps down the ground and looks to go big over the bowler, although he gets beaten by the sharp turn as the ball grips and turns in. The ball goes through to rattle the stumps.
