Aus 117-4 (55 ovs) vs India 250 | Scorecard

Lot of bounce and turn for Ashwin from the rough as Handscomb is hit on the body while trying to defend. But he keeps using his feet as he drives the fifth ball to long-on for a single.

Shami comes back into the attack and he starts with a short ball. Handscomb growing in confidence as he pulls powerfully through midwicket for a four to take his score to 31.

Head has done well to keep out Ashwin, look to play late and not trying anything fancy with tea round the corner.

Shami has a confident appeal catch down the leg side turned down against Head with the impact looking a bit high but Kohli decides to go for the review.

It is a waste of an appeal as the ball goes off the thigh pads and has missed the bat.

The next ball is slightly short as Head punches it through the covers and get three runs.

Shami produces a cracking delivery to beat Handscomb all ends up, the ball moving away late and drawing the batsman into the poke beating going past the edge.
