Narps India must go for a win to ensure a spot in the WTC is in their hands.

Mitchell Starc to Jaiswal, FOUR, shot! Starc attempts the inswinger but overpitches on middle, Jaiswal brings the bat down straight and creams the drive down the ground. First boundary of the innings

Cummins gets Rohit and Rahul
25/2

In reply to Chrissy

For Rohit, KL came in at 3.
In the end both positions squandered very cheaply.

Cummins to Rahul, out Caught by Khawaja!! Cummins has struck twice in this over- captain fantastic rising to the occasion once again! A back of a length ball shaping in from outside off, Rahul is in two minds whether to leave or block. Eventually he is late to take his bat inside the line and the ball flies off the toe-end of the bat behind. Khawaja at first slip gets low to his right to take a good catch. A double wicket-maiden for Cummins. Rahul c Khawaja b Cummins 0(5)

Mitchell Starc to Kohli, out Caught by Khawaja!! Kohli has thrown his wicket away! Mitchell Starc takes off in celebration and lets out a huge roar! Kohli could have easily left it but goes went chasing after it. A full ball swinging across Kohli. He plays away from the body loosely and ends up getting a thick outside edge. Carey moves to his right to pouch it safely. India are in some trouble now. He was showing good judgement in leaving balls outside the off stump but once again an error in judgement has cost him his wicket. That outside off channel proves to be his nemesis again.

Kohli c Khawaja b Mitchell Starc 5(29)

Will come down to the end but I see a draw here.

Looks like India playing for the draw here and leave the series even. I don't see them getting 6 an over from here now ...

India just got a headache?

Cummins to Jaiswal, out Caught by Carey!! Australian fans are rejoicing in the stands. Jaiswal is not happy and is having a word with the umpires. The two officials tell him to start walking to the pavilion.

Boland to Akash Deep, out Caught by Head!! Australia review for a bat-pad. Cummins is already celebrating with his mates. Was a back of a length ball that jagged back in sharply, Akash Deep was caught in the crease as he tried to block and seemed to have got an inside edge onto his pads. The ball lobs towards Head at short leg and he takes it safely. Time for the replays. There's a spike on Snicko when the ball is next to the bat. A clear inside edge

Akash Deep c Head b Boland 7(17) [4s-1]
