00:00207 for 4.
00:29Alin needs to click.
00:33He's got plenty of overs.
00:35His strike rate and average are a lethal combination.
00:38He's really giving the charge well out of the crease.
00:42Tony will get off the mark.
00:44The attack.
00:46They've lost the services of Shane Watson.
00:49Shane Watson.
00:57He's just made it back to the Indian test side.
01:06Oh, it's a great shot.
01:07He'll only get a single, but swiveled beautifully.
01:13It's Lloyd Chapman back in strike.
01:1599 not out.
01:18So far, just 8 runs in.
01:21Do you hear the old-timers in back?
01:27Significant point in that.
01:36Just 6 from the over. 232 for 4 now with 10 left.
01:436, that's soft.
01:47Yes, he had to be careful.
01:48He's had major problems with his line today.
01:50Clint McKay.
01:52The fine leg up inside the circle.
01:54He's, of course, allowed 4 outside now.
01:57He's just drifted down on the onside far too much.
02:01For someone so miserly in his bowling,
02:04he really has had a day where he's been off the money.
02:12He's finding what's right for you.
02:14He's got to get it very early in life.
02:19Complete the single.
02:20They were together, of course, those two in the 1983 World Cup.
02:22Then overthrows.
02:23Just one more, though.
02:24Not too many.
02:29He'll be in a circle as well.
02:379.
02:43Coney's quick.
02:46Gets there easily.
02:50He's got that fine.
02:51He'll get only a single.
02:53Will keep the strike.
02:547 off the over.
03:00Will hit Sharma.
03:01Will get the strike.
03:04Coney pulls.
03:05One bounce over the rope.
03:12It's not a wicket to bang the ball in short.
03:14The ball's not climbing up at all.
03:17So unless you get the ball around the batsman's shoulders,
03:19if you bang the ball halfway down,
03:21you're going to get clobbered.
03:23This is around the midriff.
03:25And Coney picks his spot.
03:28Pulls again.
03:30This time the placement is once again excellent from Coney.
03:37This was much more controlled.
03:40The important thing was to find the gap.
03:41And he's split the fielders in the deep once again.
03:45So consecutive boundaries for Coney.
03:48And this time he got inside the line.
03:51And therefore was able to hit it square up.
03:53One ball to go.
03:57Make that 15.
04:01It's picked away on the onside.
04:02And he finds the man in the deep now.
04:04Put down.
04:09Coney.
04:13Flicking away on the onside.
04:14That's a great effort.
04:17Oh, beautifully played.
04:19Look at that bottom hand.
04:21He's got six for that.
04:23Would you believe it?
04:25It was wide outside the off stump.
04:27He had to reach out for it.
04:29Just managed to get his bat there.
04:32And that bottom hand sent the ball away
04:38Yes, it could have been a wide.
04:42But he had to reach out for it.
04:44We all know that when that bottom hand comes into play, the ball disappears.
04:49And it has.
04:57He gets a bat on that.
04:59And he resigned the onside this time.
05:04Oh, that helicopter is out.
05:07It's gone miles in the air.
05:09And way back into the crowd.
05:14Well, the captain producing something special.
05:17Have a look at the bat speed here.
05:21Wow.
05:22Out of the park.
05:23The helicopter shot.
05:24There it is.
05:25Oh.
05:26The chopper.
05:29And he's watching it.
05:30He knows it's gone.
05:31But he wants to see how far it's gone.
05:33The moment it was a hit of the middle.
05:36Everybody knew it was going to go out.
05:38But how far out?
05:40It's gone over the roof.
05:43The ball's lost.
05:44It's gone out off the ground.
05:47This is a massive victory.
05:49We're miles up.
05:52And a new ball has come out.
05:56Shot ball.
05:57Four more.
06:00Well, the wheels are coming off here for the Australians.
06:0220 of the over.
06:03It's 345 for four.
06:10Well, Faulkner doesn't know what has hit him.
06:12Tried to pitch it up.
06:13Was it for the six?
06:14Tried to pull the bouncer.
06:16It's a one-handed hook shot by Mohandas Singh Dhoni.
06:22And that's exactly what Dhoni does.
06:26Neatly placed on the offside.
06:2950 for the Indian captain.
06:31Another boundary to end the over.
06:3217 of it.
06:33362 for four.
06:40What a half century by the Indian captain.
06:45Deliberately playing inside-out.
06:47No protection on the offside for Nathan Coulton-Isle.
06:56And that's smashed straight back.
06:58The bowler has to take cover.
07:00So does the umpire.
07:01That went like a tracer bullet.
07:04That was hit so, so hard by Mohandas Singh Dhoni.
07:08Well, the umpires need helmets as well.
07:11Have a look at that.
07:12You can see the funny side of it.
07:14Look at the speed at which it's...
07:17Both the umpires were less...
07:20The bowler trying to protect their faces.
07:23Not looking to take a catch.
07:25Have a look at it again.
07:26Look how hard the ball's been hit.
07:28Oh!
07:29Both looking for protection.
07:34That's four ball.
07:37He's just anticipating where the bowler is going to bowl.
07:41Just got the feeling he expected the short ball.
07:45Again, 20 runs of this over.
07:47Still one ball to go.
07:50There's a slower delivery, but Dhoni knew where the fielder was.
07:56He knew that the fielder was in the 30 yard circle.
07:58Just helping it along.
08:00One ball left.
08:05Finds the fielder in the deep.
08:07Will get a single.
08:08He wants to come back for the second.
08:10And will be run out.
08:12So he's sacrificing his wicket in the end.
08:14Looking for that extra run.
08:16But it's been a magnificent performance by the Indians.
08:21After 50 overs.
08:23They've scored 383 for 5.
08:27And the Indian captain departing after playing his hand.
08:31An excellent 62 of just 38.
08:34So India making 383 for 6 from their 50 overs.
