OUT! LBW! Well, Rashid has reviewed this but if there is no bat, there is not much hope. It was a length ball, around off, Adil Rashid tried to paddle it around the corner. He missed and was hit on the pads. Maxwell appealed and umpire Joel Wilson raised the dreaded finger. Rashid seemed to realize the mistake in the choice of his shot, because the risk in that stroke if you miss, you are gone. He had a long look at Potts, which means that he did not hit it and then took the review. Sure enough, UltraEdge detected nothing when the ball passed the bat. Ball Tracker then completed the formalities, with the ball projected to be hitting leg stump. Rashid goes for a fighting 27 (34) and England are 201/9, needing another 70 from 61 balls.

Outside off, punched through cover by Olly Stone for a run. Again, Glenn Maxwell showing his worth with the ball - 3 runs and a wicket from the over, taking his figures to 6-1-15-2.

Full and just outside off, Olly Stone pushes it uppishly back to the bowler and almost gets caught and bowled. Lands just in front.

OUT! CAUGHT! Unfortunate end for England and Stone but it is what it is. A short ball, outside off, from around the wicket, Olly Stone actually exhibits good technique, in ducking, to avoid the short ball. But he takes his eyes off the ball and as a result, it comes in, hits the grille of the helmet, then his shirt, goes onto the top portion of the bat and lobs in the air. Steven Smith runs behind from slip and takes a comfortable catch. The Aussies celebrate but Stone is as still as his name. The umpire smiles and eventually raises his finger. Maybe, he felt that the wicket was too obvious. AUSTRALIA WIN BY 68 RUNS AND TAKE A 2-0 LEAD IN THE 5-MATCH SERIES!
