- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR10.1 What a soft dismissal! It was a full length delivery around the off stump line, Sehwag went for the big airy drive but mistimed it completely and sends a dolly of a catch to mid-off. It was outside off and Sehwag ended up slicing his drive; the bat-face turned in his hand 67/23.3 Siddle takes out SRT. Full in length, outside off, luring Tendulkar across but it straightens to take the edge. Full length delivery after the bouncer does the trick. Tendulkar played away from the body there, much like in the first game. What a lovely start from Siddle. 21/133.6 almost caught and bowled and Gambhir is run out! Confusion there! It was the slower one and Dhoni was beaten by it and scooped it just over the leaping Siddle. Gambhir had rushed off ; Hauritz swooped on the ball from mid-off and threw in a direct hit at the non-striker's end to remove Gambhir. Australia continue to impress in the field. 216/415.1 Done in by the slightly slower one. It was full, it was straight and Yuvraj couldn't keep his drive down. Hilfy swoops to pick up a sharp catch on his follow through. Australia tighten the screws. 97/349.3 Dhoni falls after a superbly paced knock. It was a full delivery on the off stump line, he tried to whip it across the line but edged it to right of Paine who takes a tumbling catch. Dhoni gets a standing ovation from the crowd. He started off ,dealing in singles, before he turned violent in the end 352/549.5 Another sharp catch from Paine. Raina edged the intended lofted hit to long-on and the ball appeared to be flying over Paine who leaped to bring it back to earth. What a gem of a cameo from Raina, though. Bosh. Biff. Wham bham stuff from him. 353/649.6 PK is run out full in length around the off stump line, turned to thrid man. PK came back for the second run ... Again Paine does a fine job to collect the slightly wide throw and flick it away to the stumps to run out Praveen Kumar 354/7Extras23 (b 1, lb 6, nb 2, w 14)TOTAL354/7 (50 Overs, RR: 7.08)Fall of wickets: 1-21 (Sachin Tendulkar, 3.3 ov), 2-67 (Virender Sehwag, 10.1 ov), 3-97 (Yuvraj Singh, 15.1 ov), 4-216 (Gautam Gambhir, 33.6 ov), 5-352 (MS Dhoni, 49.3 ov), 6-353 (Suresh Raina, 49.5 ov), 7-354 (Praveen Kumar, 49.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR9.1 Ishant strikes first ball. It kicked up high from short of length, Watson was pressing forward before he tried go back and dab it to third man. However, he was done in by the extra bounce. At the last minute, he tried to adjust by taking out the bottom hand off the handle but only succeeded in guiding the ball straight and low to Tendulkar at first slip 41/24.6 The leg stump goes for a walk and PK is thrilled. It was fuller this time and the ball cut back in from outside off. Paine went for the big swing over mid-on and edged it to his leg stump. 20 for 1. 20/110.1 trapped right in front. PK has taken out the big wicket of the Australian captain and the crowd roar their approval. It was a length delivery that cut in from just outside off. Ponting was on the front foot, looking to drive on the up but is beaten by the inward movement. He was struck in line on the off and middle line and he has to go. PK ran straight to Ishant to celebrate, followed by wildly happy Raina and the other team-mates 45/320.6 White has been repeatedly trying to get down the track but has been unable to reach the pitch of the ball. And he has adjusted by jabbing it away,. But this time, he tries to go through with the shot and only succeeds in lobbing a dolly to Raina at straight ish midwicket. 93/430.3 He took out Ponting with a good delivery in the last game; takes out Hussey with a lovely one tonight. It landed on a length outside off and turned in sharply. Hussey chose to go back instead of coming forward and was surprised by the amount of turn. It went right through the bat and pad gap to disturb the furniture. 140/538.3 bowled! Voges gets across too far, exposing the stumps, and tries to sweep from outside off stump but the ball clips his front pad and glove and rolls onto the sticks 194/736.5 He charges out again but this time, Jadeja gets the ball to go straight with the arm, outside off stump, past the big swing, and Marsh is stranded down the track 180/643.3 Clatter. The off stump has been uprooted. Johnson has a slog across the line, misses, and hears the death rattle. 223/844.4 fired in short again, outside off, Siddle tries to upper cut it but edges it to Dhoni. Nine down now. 230/948.3 Hilfenhaus is run out. He went down the track and dragged it to midwicket and set off for a single. He is sent back but too late. Yuvraj flicks it to Dhoni who breaks the stumps. India win by 99 runs and the series stands 1-1. 255/10Extras13 (lb 5, w 8)TOTAL255 all out (48.3 Overs, RR: 5.25)Fall of wickets: 1-20 (Tim Paine, 4.6 ov), 2-41 (Shane Watson, 9.1 ov), 3-45 (Ricky Ponting, 10.1 ov), 4-93 (Cameron White, 20.6 ov), 5-140 (Michael Hussey, 30.3 ov), 6-180 (Shaun Marsh, 36.5 ov), 7-194 (Adam Voges, 38.3 ov), 8-223 (Mitchell Johnson, 43.3 ov), 9-230 (Peter Siddle, 44.4 ov), 10-255 (Ben Hilfenhaus, 48.3 ov)
