Six!
Back of a length, around middle, Maxwell opens up and pulls it along the ground to deep mid-wicket for a single.
Fuller, around leg, Inglis drills it to mid on and runs off for a quick single. MOVES TO 98.
On a good length, just outside off, Inglis pushes it wide of cover for a single. 13 runs off the over. Australia need 44 runs in 36 balls.
SIX! UNBELIEVABLE! Carse offers pace this time on a good length and around off, Josh Inglis changes his stance and reverse scoops it over deep third man for another biggie.
SIX! JUST SUPERB! Slower again but back of a length and angling into the body, Josh Inglis picks it up as he swivels and pulls it over deep square leg for a biggie.
PACE OFF! Goes fuller and slower and keeps it wide outside off, away from the batter's reach. Josh Inglis goes to chase it but misses.
Hard length, follows the batter, around leg, Inglis makes room and manages to keep it down back to the bowler.
Full and around off, Inglis stays low and drives it hard but straight to cover.
FOUR! AND ANOTHER! Wood goes fuller and around middle and leg, Glenn Maxwell again makes room by going to the leg side and looks to loft it down the ground but gets it through the inner half of the bat over mid on for another boundary. Australia need 57 runs in 42 balls.
FOUR! DISPATCHED! On a good length and outside off, Glenn Maxwell makes room and opens up to thump it over cover for a boundary.
On a good length, on the pads, Inglis gets it off the gloves as he tries to pull it towards square leg and he runs off for a single.
Hard length, around middle, Inglis turns it wide of mid-wicket and runs back for the second in quick time.
A loud appeal for LBW but is turned down by the umpire! On a good length with pace, around leg, seaming in, Josh Inglis hops up and looks to flick it away but gets beaten on the inside edge and wears it on the front pad. Probably, going down the leg side.
Halt! Mark Wood slipped in his follow-through on the previous delivery. It seems the landing area is a bit slippery due to the dew, and some dust is being applied.
Slower length ball, touch outside off, Josh Inglis chops it out in the gap towards deep backward point for a couple of runs.
BEATEN! Hard length, in the channel, a hint of away movement, Glenn Maxwell looks to guide it as he opens the face of the bat but gets beaten on the outside edge.
On a good length, around off, Maxwell dabs it to point.
Glenn Maxwell walks out to the middle.
OUT! CAUGHT! GONE! THE PARTNERSHIP IS BROKEN! Brydon Carse runs in hard from around the wicket and bowls on a good length, touch outside off, Alex Carey gives himself some room and looks to loft it over mid off but gets it through the cue end of the bat as the ball goes straight to the mid off fielder where Jos Buttler makes no mistake as he pouches it with both hands. Australia are 282/5 and they need 70 more off 50 balls.
