Leggie Rishad to bowl his third over with Bangladesh needing the spinner to strike again.

Warner continues to be positive. He reverse sweeps the second ball, getting it over point for a four as the asking rate goes under six.

He clips the leggie through midwicket for a single before Maxwell whips the spinner against the turn over midwicket for a powerful shot which carries all the way for a six.

He slogs the next ball again through midwicket for two runs but misses out on a full toss last ball, driving it gently to the fielder at mid-off.

13 runs from the over brings the equation under control with Australia needing 48 from nine overs.

Warner raises his fifty in grand style from 34 balls as he flicks Taskin's full delivery over square leg for a six.
