00:00Hot day here toss won by MS Dhoni. It is warm out there though, absolutely. This is a good toss to win for India.
00:11Inside edge. Bowling sides are unlucky.
00:13Edge! There we are!
00:15Joel Parris has got his first wicket in international cricket.
00:21Smashed in the air, and that's four.
00:24Bashed. As soon as that hit the bat, it was four.
00:32It's nicely bowled, but that'll be 50 for Rohit Sharma to go with his 171 not out in game one.
00:40It's through, not quite out of the middle, but it'll go for four.
00:45That'll be 50 for Virat Colney. So back-to-back half centuries.
00:49Oh, that's hammered. That's all the way.
00:56Oh, that's another one. That's better than the first.
01:02A serious test for this inexperienced Australian attack.
01:07That's got out of here now. I think he's pushed his luck this time.
01:11Wade, quick, gone. Top of the stumps.
01:17Oh dear. Must be. No. What?
01:23Oh, I know where my money is if you see a replay here.
01:27So the not out is the not out. We're not going upstairs. Is there a flick?
01:31Massive one. There is a big flick on that.
01:35Oh, that's a beautiful shot down the ground. And it's just a straight chip.
01:44And there's Rahane. He's tugged that to the onside. It's a good stroke though. It's a power play.
01:51And there it is. The magnificent innings.
01:55He loved batting at the whack-up. And here he is taming the gather.
02:05First bat of the series. And it's a 50.
02:11Sliced over cover. Finch is out there. But that's gone a long way fast.
02:15Out in the shed. Has he got enough of it? He caught it. He has. Finch gives up.
02:24Keen Legspinner. That's out. Forkner gets his right pinky on it.
02:33Chalmers smashing himself, cursing his luck. Angry beyond angry.
02:40Well hit. That's that full, full toss if you like.
02:47That's a magnificent piece of outfielding too. He is a wonderful fielder, Glenn Maxwell.
02:56They go in Maxwell's direction. And he doesn't drop him.
03:00This is a brilliant outfielder. And that was a catch. Made look very simple.
03:05Really good judgment there from Maxwell.
03:08That might go for four. Very hard to defend that.
03:13Bounce. That's well struck. That low, full toss. You've got so little room to move.
03:22That's high. There's all sorts of protection out here. Steve Smith done drop there.
03:26Slow ball. In the air. Joel Paris comes in and hangs onto it.
03:39The ramp. Has he got enough of it? No.
03:42Boland just sits under a simple catch. These are big wickets at the back end of this innings.
03:47Oh, it's a very, very good final over. He's going to get a wicket. Really doesn't matter.
03:55But that's terrific bowling from big Johnny Hastings. Just four runs coming from the last over.
04:01Eight for 308. India posted. Here's Finch facing Shran and that'll be a wide, I reckon.
04:07Yep. So Australia on the board.
04:11Oh, he's got that away. Won too many short balls for Finch. He's away with a boundary.
04:17Clicked fine. It'll be four more. No one down there.
04:25Oh, that's fine. Leg bars in before them though. Just can't get the line right at the moment.
04:32So the strokes are broken down.
04:35Oh, he's in trouble here, Sean Marsh. He's in trouble. Big trouble because he's dropped a sitter.
04:47I'll tell you what, the crowd will even know it. Play on.
04:53Thick edge this time. So top edge.
04:56Very difficult for first slip when they fly like that.
05:00It's flying off the bat. And yeah, just lost it there for a second.
05:03For Toyota Corolla. Up and over. Yes. Gets there.
05:08Oh, big. It's flicked to the left side for a max.
05:1750 to Finch. He beats Marsh to the milestone. Ashland thought it was going to be a direct hit
05:22because he should have been there to gather and take them off. If not,
05:26Finch brought up 50 last over. Now Sean Marsh's turn.
05:33Cutting and into the gap. The race is on. The white ball wins.
05:41Ravi Dajaja comes into the attack and gets hit out of it. He's got to stay away from that.
05:47That one's just whipped into the mid-wicket gap.
05:54Oh, he's given it. Oh, that's a great effort.
05:59I think it's Barry. It is. It's horizontal.
06:04Oh, would have been so good to see him hold that. Wickets can change that.
06:08And he catches it. He does catch it. That is special.
06:19A cheeky run. He pulls off a moment of magic that may well change the game.
06:24It does change and it's Finch walking back. Have a look at this. It just gets there.
06:27Ahana. I thought he had more to do. That was enough. That is brilliance.
06:33Well, what a bit of timing from thinking there's a half chance to mid-wicket. We're celebrating a boundary.
06:46Oh, he dropped it. The slip put in and the catch put down.
06:55It'll be a nice catch.
06:59Must catch this one, surely.
07:01Oh, well played.
07:12Picked up beautifully by Bailey.
07:17And that goes between them. You wouldn't believe it.
07:20Impossible to pierce that gap.
07:24Oh, well played. Just backed off enough to let his hands get to the ball.
07:28This is it for Robbie Ashwin. Last over.
07:32Nicely played. What about that? It's all in the feet.
07:36That'll run away. How frustrating is that?
07:43Very lucky, Bailey.
07:50Nicely might have got a hand on that on the way through, but it races all the way.
07:54That has gone quickly.
07:57Well, that'll do. There's a wicket. That one shoots maybe a little bit low.
08:01That was certainly what Smith was thinking happened, but he gave a look at his stumps.
08:08So something for India.
08:09That'll do it. They're very handy. Just had enough on it.
08:16Changing the bowling, and this one is high. How long is it?
08:21Long enough.
08:22And he's returned to form tonight, but Bailey keeps it going.
08:30That's into a gap. Not right out of the middle, but struck pretty well.
08:34And it's going to get there, I reckon. No, brilliant.
08:37Great defensive work.
08:40Now over the young side. Has he got all of it?
08:43No, he hasn't. It's four.
08:45Check your local guys. Maxwell. It's in the gap this time.
08:48That'll be his first boundary. And the score's a level.
08:56Well, if he hits, that'll do. Australia win.
09:01Another brilliant run chase here at the Gabba. They win with it over to Spare.
09:06Bailey remains 76 night out. Super innings from him.
09:11Maxwell 26 night out. Contributions right down the order. Finch, Marsh, Smith, all good tonight.
09:18And the Australians take a 2-0 lead.
09:19over, traversing yourselves!
09:21We'll be back on it too.
09:22We'll be back on it again.
09:24We'll be back on it now!
09:25So after all, out of Parlom K
