9 OUT! TAKEN! The 89-run partnership is broken. How badly Australia needed this wicket? Excellent from Glenn Maxwell though, smart thinking! Similar delivery as the previous ball, Glenn Maxwell just changes his line and drags it wide of off. George Munsey goes for the slog-sweep again but toe ends his shot to deep mid-wicket where Nathan Ellis runs in and takes it low to the ground. 92/2

1 OUT! DRAGGED ON! Ashton Agar strikes in the first over! Unfortunate for Michael Jones. Ashton stays around the wicket and slips in the arm ball, short and on off and middle, coming in with the angle. With a deep point in place, Michael Jones gets on the back foot and tries to get it to the man in the deep there to rotate the strike. Pays the price for working it against the angle as the ball keeps coming back in. Catches the inside edge which deflects back onto the pads and then goes onto hit the stumps. 3/1

11.2 OUT! TAKEN! Cleverly bowled by Adam Zampa and he gets the reward! End of a special knock by Brandon McMullen. Zampa loops it up nicely and entices the batter into a big shot. Throws it up full and near the tramline on off, Brandon McMullen reaches out to go through the off side and gets drawn into the shot. The ball spins away and catches the thickish outside edge that goes low to short third where Mitchell Starc dives in front to take a good low catch. 111/3

14.3 OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! Glenn Maxwell should consider himself extremely lucky here. Gets a wicket off a full toss and the smile on his face says it all. Gets the length wrong and dishes out a thigh-high full toss, on middle, there to be put away, Matthew Cross smacks it towards deep mid-wicket but this is hit against the wind and it does not have enough bat on it to clear the fence. Ashton Agar near the ropes takes a safe catch. 136/4

|
16.5 OUT! TAKEN! A dolly for Starc in the deep! Superb over so far from Ellis! Too full and on middle, holds a bit onto the surface. Michael Leask is early to his lofted shot and gets just height on it. The ball goes into the night sky but in the hands of Starc near long on. Another wicket and Australia will love to run into the bowling group then. 152/5

15.4 OUT! TAKEN! Safyaan Sharif fights back after being hit for 3 sixes. Scotland will breathe a huge sight of relief. Comes from around the wicket and goes really full, outside off, Travis Head stays low and tries to get underneath it to go over long off. Fails to get the elevation and hits it straight down the throat of Michael Jones who does the rest. End of a brilliant knock by Head. 140/4

| David Warner | 1 | 4 | 0 | 0 | 25 |

1.2 OUT! TAKEN! The dangerous David Warner goes. It was there to be hit actually, was in the arc for David Warner! Fuller and angling across the batter, outside off, just David Warner was very early to his lofted driven shot. He slices it up and to cover. Richie Berrington runs across to his right, keeps his eyes on the ball and takes it safely. 2/1

| Mitchell Marsh C | 8 | 9 | 1 | 0 | 88.88 |
|
5.1 OUT! STRAIGHT TO THE FIELDER! Talk about having an immediate impact! Safyaan Sharif strikes with his first delivery. Bends his back and digs it in short, over middle, Mitchell Marsh stands tall and shapes up to launch the pull. Takes the risk of hitting against the wind and gets this one high on the bat. It goes only as far as deep mid-wicket where the substitute fielder, Charlie Tear takes it safely. 34/2

| Glenn Maxwell | 11 | 8 | 0 | 1 | 137.50 |

8.2 OUT! CASTLED! An absolute seed by Mark Watt! Glenn Maxwell stands there in disbelief. Watt comes from around the wicket for the right-hander and spears it in, on a short length, on off and middle, the ball holds its line as Maxwell shapes up to work it across the line. It actually catches the outside edge of the bat and goes through to peg the off-stump back. A timely breakthrough for Scotland just as Australia were starting to put their foot down. 60/3

| Marcus Stoinis | 59 | 29 | 9 | 2 | 203.44 |
|
17 OUT! BOWLED'EM! Mark Watt gets his man but Marcus Stoinis has done his job. Watt slips in a quicker delivery, full and angling in, on middle, Marcus Stoinis plays outside the line of the ball as he tries to employ the reverse sweep but gets beaten on the inside edge and it rattles into the stumps. Both set batters back in the hut but the equation in Australia's favour. 155/5
