Head hits half-century to rally Australia

December 07, 2018 12:12

Aus 176-6 (79 ovs) vs India 250 | Scorecard

India looking to race through their overs and get up to the 80-over mark without much damage so they can take the second new ball with their pacers rested.

A much better over from Vijay this time around as he concedes just a single.

Cummins is nearly done in by Ashwin as he offers no shot but the ball turns sharply and nearly hits the stumps.

Vijay has settled into a good rhythm as he bowls in a good channel, forcing Head to defend and he also misses out a full toss hitting it to the fielder at midwicket.

Just a single from the last four overs including a maiden as the spin duo of Ashwin and Vijay look to build the pressure with some tight bowling and then look for wickets with the new ball.

Cummins comes forward to Ashwin as he gets the inside edge which falls just short of KL Rahul at short leg.

The veteran spinner continues to keep things as he sends down another maiden over, the fourth in the last five overs.

Vijay continues as he drops short and also offers some width and Head cashes in as he cuts it behind point for a four.
