00:00all set for the first ball Meredith Tomonzy heard from Preston Momsen taking
00:20a look at the surface historically it's it's a very good pitch here for batting
00:28pulled by hairs and it's gonna be the first boundary the outfield is always
00:33quick at the Grange and if you're just wondering as to how partisan this home
00:39crowd are gonna be you've already got an indication warm applause around the
00:44Grange venue this goes up into the air should be taken simplest of catches for
00:53the skipper Mitchell Marsh who is delighted to get the back of hairs and
00:58find an early breakthrough and it's Bartlett with that breakthrough
01:02Australia on top early edged away gonna be edged for four the fans getting into
01:14the action pulling pulls and pulls in front to square beautifully for four
01:25that's a lovely way to get him into double figures the biggest cheer of the
01:32day greets the first maximum or what a strike that is from George Munsey I said
01:38he's in the form of his career he really is once he goes bang and gets a
01:47good piece of it puts into the advertising hoardings it's another
01:51maximum his second Scotland second they're just starting to get moving
01:55starting to find the face of the pitch Oh back-to-back this one's even bigger
02:03he's at his belligerent best here George Munsey he's never played better
02:09and when he goes well so to do Scotland that's much more like it
02:17tries to get enough of it won't go all the way but will be three consecutive
02:22boundaries as Meredith has taken to task in his second over five have been bold
02:27on the charge 47 for one
02:33Munsey is loving pace on the ball the Scottish crowd are enjoying every second
02:38of this the 50s come up in grand style in the power play taking a brilliant
02:48catch and Australia strike back with the wicket that they needed
02:52Munsey falls to a leap in English it's a big breakthrough for Sean Abbott he's
03:02gonna get off the mark in some fashion it's always quick the eight field and
03:06Meredith won't be able to cut it off it's a boundary to end the over but
03:10Scotland have lost both of their openers the power play may be honors even it's
03:1456 for two that is McMullen at his best lovely shot down the ground he really
03:28is all-class by inside out this time but there is a fielder underneath it and so
03:41McMullen now has to take the wall back to that pavilion it looks good while he
03:48was there but the Australians they just keep coming
03:56well he's got every piece of that Barrington he's probably their best
04:01player of spin and that guy well congratulations so you are in on the
04:06action he gets a prize give him a whiskey
04:13again that one in the air but couldn't get there in time it's another boundary
04:22well that will help push the momentum along for Scotland
04:29Danny has moved across his stumps a couple of times Matt cross this time he
04:35does get hold of it himself into position to put that one away helped
04:40around the corner hold of that one for more for Barrington this time it's gone
04:56straight up in the air and it's going to be taken comfortably on the boundary
05:01Bartlett make sure of it so Barrington it's been fine from him but it comes to
05:09an end full delivery it's dug out beautifully it's gonna be for Barrington
05:23already departed picked up into the leg side does he get enough of it no he
05:29doesn't picks out the man Xavier Bartlett who takes another catch it's
05:34one across his go-to shots and there's silence across the grange as Australia
05:38have a fifth anyone to watch for the future to as Zampa returns and strikes
05:45immediately least felt as though he might have got outside the line I'm not
05:49sure if he did and David McLean has no hesitation in getting the finger up but
05:54all of a sudden the wheels are coming off for the Scots
05:59where's this one gone oh he's got a good piece of it soars all the way maybe
06:06even over the stands Jarvis he's a precocious talent Disney and that has
06:12brought the crowd back to life just what Scotland needed mark what gets it up to
06:19the perfect start for the final three that is straight as an arrow you cannot
06:25hit any straighter than that over the heads of our cameraman the Cotter's
06:32dragged to the leg side and picked out the man very clever from Abbott's he's
06:41out thought Jarvis there by taking all the pace off and all Jarvis could do was
06:45drag it too long on another one goes what hits it straight to Marcus Stoinis
06:54who takes a good catch Stoinis hanging on the edge of the circle as you often
06:59do in the last few overs I think what's going to be disappointed it was into the
07:04slot all he could do was give a t20 I wicked on come back to Riley Meredith
07:12this goes absolutely nowhere it's gonna be Mitchell Marsh who will get there
07:18didn't look too likely at first he was waiting for someone else to call it he's
07:23ended up getting the hard yards in and getting his hands underneath it Charlie
07:28Castle can only scoop it up he's the latest to fall Scotland well folding
07:33away rather tamely here they're gonna be bonus rooms and some cheers finally
07:42around the grange it's been a little while and inside edge gets them to 149
07:47everyone may count jets final delivery of the Indians is going to be scampered
07:56by despite the direct hit from English two umpires have a look at each other
08:00they're happy with the height of that and it will be an extra to the total to
08:05round out the first inning in Scotland will have to be satisfied they'll
08:09certainly be no more than that 154 for nine from their 20 overs there is the
08:15wasn't innings that necessarily Scotland will be overly pleased with but they've
08:25got something on the board this goes a long way up midwick it goes back Charlie
08:32Castle he holds on and Scotland they strike early and Fraser McGurk on his t20
08:40debut he's got to go for a third ball duck so nearly two in the over and two
08:49in two instead it just squirts away it was a nothing shot for Mitchell Marsh
08:54expecting the ball to come on much quicker than it did and it runs away for
08:58the first boundary of the chase last thing you want to do is give Travis head
09:05width though because he'll pounce on that well fielded with one pence in the
09:10crowd cannot allow him to free his arms that's a stylish stroke to get off the
09:14mark driven at a catchable height but Barrington can't get anything on it and
09:22it races to the rope back-to-back boundaries fuller this time you men
09:27outside the circle problem is head pounces on width almost an action replay
09:33from a few balls prior for more cutaway and it finds the gap there's almost an
09:43eerie silence isn't there every time Australia hit a boundary but this is a
09:47fine stroke only a fraction wide but head so good square the wicked he is
09:52profited already three or four times there big blow towards the leg side now
09:59there is a man out there but it's over his head then it goes all the way for
10:03six because bidon has come up into the circle they'll club you down the ground
10:11this is a batting exhibition from Travis said he's putting on a show here in
10:16Edinburgh and flicks it away to the leg side all this is quite brilliant it's 20
10:24from the over may well have been held in the crowd to go with it three have been
10:28bowled Australia they are flying 38 for one first bowl against Australia he's
10:35driven ever so elegantly not too much wrong with the delivery but the perfect
10:41cover drive Marsh now joining the party
10:46pulled and pulled powerfully we've seen something quite brilliant here from
10:52Travis said he's on an absolute heater he's flown to 37 off 13 and doesn't
10:58really matter the length of the line right now everything must go monstrous
11:06smoked all the way gonna be six more and head is flying towards 50 the crown is
11:12good it's put down in the crowd witnessing a clinic of the highest
11:17quality from Travis said 50s come up inside four overs and you can add to
11:26that it's going to be four more head goes to 47 Australia in cruise control
11:33it's 57 for one the change in bowling that has gone miles look out in the
11:41tennis courts it might just a sword into them back of a length Mitchell Marsh one
11:46of his favorite strokes smokes it away for six not where you want to bowl to
11:53Mitchell Marsh gonna be back-to-back sixes that is absolutely massive it's
11:59out of the entire venue driven through the covers well this is quite remarkable
12:09six six four to start the over Marsh getting into the act in a big way with
12:13Travis said there's silence across the grange more rooms and it may well be six
12:21yes it's gonna soar all the way Marsh is such a powerful ball striker deliveries
12:28here Scotland surely stay bowls it into the surface it's pulled so powerfully it
12:33splits the two men in the deep it won't be six more but it will be four more
12:37it's over still as a ball to go it's gone for 26 it's gonna be four more you
12:47won't believe it he split the same gap again McMullen can't cut it off 30 from
12:52the over Australia immaculate Scotland being blitzed away it's 87 for one the
13:01runs just keep coming and there's a world record that could well fall here
13:05hundreds only being gone past in the para play once in history that was a
13:11hundred and two as Travis said he goes to 50 17 balls it's taken but boy today
13:21now it's gonna be more runs and this might go all the way it's six more well
13:27they're being blitzed away here Scotland
13:33just over the head of the man George Munsey I think it is at mid-off and the
13:40hundred has come up inside the power play it's the second time in the history
13:45of t20i cricket that it's happened
13:49oh no fortune going their way and with it goes the world record Australia have
13:55just posted the highest power play in the history of t20 international cricket
14:01it goes past South Africa's a hundred and two that came last year everywhere
14:09the ball goes it's just going to the rope and they're making it look so easy
14:12these two hitting the ball with reckless abandoned Scotland they don't know where
14:17to turn they don't know where to look they look shell-shocked and rightly so
14:24well the world record will fittingly complete with a boundary nobody has ever
14:31made that many in a power play and Travis said has been the driving force
14:34behind it with six bold it's 113 for one
14:39he may well have picked up a wicket from his first ball pace comes off but
14:46everything changes Michael Leese takes a very good catch and as I welcome Preston
14:50Momsen to the box finally some really for Scotland to end well an outstanding
14:57sensational second wicket partnership
15:02now this one's been hoiked away and hoiked all the way it's a slog sweep
15:08right into his hitting arc it's six more Travis head zoning in and what would be
15:13a remarkable hundred here fishing here at the Grange he's gonna try and keep
15:18going but there's a man there and it's held well taken by Michael Leese again
15:25he maybe should have it to in two balls but mark what has got to in the over
15:31again Travis head this is cut away it's gonna be cut away for four gets it
15:37intentionally open over the head of backward points good batting from
15:40English big pool shot now there is a man out there but it's gone miles over his
15:47head this one's out of the ground as well I thought the wickets might have
15:51slowed Australia but they're just continuing to go at a supersonic speed
15:56more awesome ball striking bigger picture Jack Jarvis back into the attack
16:03and he's clicked away for four more English making use of that bit of
16:08fortune that life that he had and it's four more driven really pleasingly seen
16:16some very conventional cricket strokes amidst the chaos and that is the
16:21perfect extra cover drive that is gonna be that Australia they have soared to
16:30victory in the most impressive of fashions a terrific Travis head
16:37masterclass one of the best innings you will ever see in t20i cricket he
16:42threatened maybe to be the fastest hundred of all time a world record
16:46power play the highest ever made in six overs by any team in an international
16:52and some finishing touches applied by Marsh and then English and a maximum
16:59from Marcus Stoinis guides the visitors home there's no winter in Australia they
17:04are fit and foreign and ready to go they have blitz Scotland away and gone one
17:09up in the series to take the win by seven wickets
