5.4 OUT! TIMBER! 'YOU MISS I HIT,' SAYS JOFRA ARCHER! Both the Australian openers are back in the hut now. Varies his pace and length, on full and attacking the stumps, Travis Head clears his front foot to open the off side but the ball stays a bit low as well. Travis Head swings it hard but gets deceived by the low bounce and the ball whizzes past his inside edge into the stumps. Australia are two down now but they have got a sensational initiation. 74/2

| David Warner | 39 | 16 | 2 | 4 | 243.75 |
|
5 OUT! BOWLED'EM! What relief for England as Moeen Ali strikes and David Warner departs after a fiery cameo. Quick and short at the stumps, bowled flatter and this one skids through. Warner backs away to cut but the ball stays low and sneaks under the willow before castling into the stumps. Warner has done his job one will feel but now England have a chance to bring some control back into this innings. 70/1

| Mitchell Marsh C | 35 | 25 | 2 | 2 | 140 |
|
13.5 OUT! STUMPED! Jos Buttler almost made a mess of that one but England do have a breakthrough. Liam Livingstone keeps bowling the leg-breaks to the right-handers and flights this one up nicely on a length and drifts it in from around off. Mitchell Marsh is drawn forward but the ball turns away after pitching and beats the bat. Buttler misses the stumps on the first occasion but the replays show that he did enough on the second attempt and Marsh could only get his back foot onto the line and not inside it in time. 139/3

| Glenn Maxwell | 28 | 25 | 3 | 1 | 112 |
|
14.2 OUT! CAUGHT! Straight to the man and England are back in it. Again that flatter trajectory from Adil Rashid, bowled short this time and over the middle stump. Glenn Maxwell goes on the back foot and bends his back before trying to muscle the ball over deep mid-wicket. Maxwell gets no elevation and hits it flat to the man at deep mid-wicket. Phil Salt takes a fairly simple catch and Australia have lost two wickets in the space of four deliveries. 141/4

| Marcus Stoinis | 30 | 17 | 2 | 2 | 176.47 |
|
19.4 OUT! IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! Jordan gets his 100th T20I wicket. Bangs it short in length, into the body of the batter, Marcus Stoinis tries to pull it over mid-wicket but he does it playing it too close to the body, hence, fails to generate the requisite power and finds Harry Brook at deep mid-wicket. A good crucial cameo from Marcus Stoinis comes to an end. 200/6

| Tim David | 11 | 8 | 0 | 1 | 137.50 |
|
16.5 OUT! IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! Tim David departs now. Lands this one on a length, and outside off. Tim David takes a good stride forward for an expansive lofted shot over covers but hits it flatly and doesn't get the requisite distance. The ball sails flat and into the safe hands of Liam Livingstone patrolling the deep covers. A crucial wicket for England. 168/5

19.5 OUT! RUN OUT! This is turning out to be an excellent final over for England. Slower short-pitched bumper on the stumps line, Pat Cummins gets deceived by the pace off and doesn't connect the swipe across the line. Matthew Wade wants to be on the strike for the last delivery and he is already more than halfway towards the striker's end. Jos Buttler grabs it behind the stumps and throws it towards the runner's end where Chris Jordan collects the ball and flashes off the bails. Pat Cummins is not even in the frame. 200/7

7.1 OUT! BOWLED'EM! Adam Zampa in a big game for Australia yet again and he gets that vital first wicket for his side. Zampa starts from over the stumps and straightaway goes to the flatter trajectory, bowling it fractionally short and trying to skid it onto middle stump. The ball just turns away ever so slightly and goes through quickly, Phil Salt looks to cut off the back foot but is beaten all ends up and the ball knocks over the top of off and middle. 73/1

| Jos Buttler C Wk | 42 | 28 | 5 | 2 | 150 |
|
9.5 OUT! CAUGHT! Adam Zampa has the last laugh here though and Jos Buttler cannot believe it. Zampa keeps bowling it relatively full but pushes this one a bit quicker through the air and around off stump. Buttler goes for the reverse sweep one too many times and ends up chipping the ball just over point where Pat Cummins just leaps up a bit and takes a sharp catch. Buttler was looking really good but Zampa has got Australia back on top here. 92/2

10.5 OUT! TAKEN! STUNNER FROM STARC! Marcus Stoinis bowls a cross-seamed delivery, on a length around off, Will Jacks flatly airs it over mid off but doesn't get the requisite distance and timing to sail it over the fence. As a result, the ball carries in front of the long off region where Mitchell Starc runs forward and takes a stunning low diving catch to dismiss the dangerous Will Jacks. 96/3

14.1 OUT! TAKEN! Jonny Bairstow's struggling stay comes to an end and Australians celebrate! Josh Hazlewood breaks a budding partnership just at the right time. Short in length, skids through on top of off, Jonny Bairstow goes for a pull shot but loses his shape and the ball slices off the willow, high up in the air straight towards Glenn Maxwell stationed at deep mid-wicket who takes a very simple catch running forward. 124/4

| Moeen Ali | 25 | 15 | 0 | 3 | 166.66 |

15.4 OUT! TAKEN! Top catch in the deep from David Warner and Australia have executed the plan to perfection. Full and wide from Pat Cummins, bowled from around the stumps and forcing the batter to hit to the longer side of the ground. Moeen Ali walks across to the off side and slashes it away up and over backward point. Warner looses the ball in the sun a bit but does well to settle himself and reverse-cup it nicely. 128/5
