A 38-BALL FIFTY FOR MCMULLEN! He is keeping Scotland in the hunt. It has been a wonderful innings so far, judging the pitch pretty quicky. Gets there with a gentle flick through mid-wicket and returning for a brace. Can he do an Inglis and bat through? Well, nearly through in Inglis' case.

OUT! TAKEN! Expertly held by Tim David! A massive blow to Scotland. Abbott bends his back and digs it in short, outside off. Brandon McMullen shimmies down the track and tries to slap it away on the off side. He has to reach out and it means that he ends up dragging it down the ground towards long on.

Short and at the batter, Mark Watt pulls it in front of square on the leg side and gets to the other end.

OUT! IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! The change of bowling has worked nicely for Australia as they strengthen their grip on the game. Stoinis comes from over the wicket for the right-hander and goes fuller and slower, at the stumps. Michael Leask sets himself deep in the crease and slogs across the line. Gets undone by the slowness of the delivery and spoons it off the bottom half of the bat. It goes only as far as deep mid-wicket where Jake Fraser-McGurk settles under it and does the rest.

OUT! BOWLED! Another bowling change, another wicket for Australia! Green comes from around the wicket and takes pace off as he bowls it on a good length, on middle and leg. Mark Watt tries to work it away with the angle on the leg side. Plays outside the line of the ball as the ball catches the inside edge onto his thigh pad and then it deflects onto the stumps. The wheels are coming off for Scotland now.

OUT! CLEANED HIM UP! You miss I hit, says Cameron Green! Two in two for the Aussie all-rounder and he is on a hat-trick now. Green switches to over the wicket for the right-hander and bowls it at pace, full and aimed at the off pole. Chris Sole clears his front leg and swings through the line to go down the ground. Misses the line of the ball completely and it goes through to clatter into the off pole.

Oh, dear! We have seen better hat-trick balls, let's just put it that way! Green goes searching for the yorker but gets it wrong. Ends up bowling a waist-high full toss, on the pads. Wheal gets beaten on the inside edge as he tries to clip it away on the leg side and wears it on the pads. A sheepish look on the face of Green as he appeals for LBW. Clearly going down leg.

Full and on leg, knocked down to long on for a single by Wheal.

On the pads again and it is full, Chris Greaves turns this wide of deep backward square leg for a brace.

Gets a leading edge that goes straight up in the air towards cover. Xavier Bartlett calls for it and settles under it after running a few steps in front to complete the catch near his chest.

Serves it on a good length, on off does Stoinis, Brad Currie guides it off the back foot through covers for a single.

OUT! STRAIGHT TO THE FIELDER! Marcus Stoinis wraps things up! Australia put the series to bed with a clinical win. Stoinis spots the batter back away towards the leg side slightly and he follows him. Bowls it full and around the pads. Chris Greaves tries to swat it behind square on the leg side. He could not have picked out the fielder any better. Helps it away off his pads and it goes straight into the hands of Aaron Hardie at fine leg who takes the simplest of catches near his left knee. Marcus Stoinis ends with four wickets to his name. His figures read 3.4-0-23-4. Australia win by 70 runs and take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the series!
