3.38pm: Australia are bowled out for 219 in 77 overs. Vastrakar picks up four and Rana and Deepti share five wickets among them. McGrath is the only batter to score fifty. But from 168 for 8, Australia's tailenders did well to stretch the score past 200. Stay tuned for India's innings.

Farhan: "Australian tail has wagged us out of many probable wins, let's hope we clear them off in a jiffy today."

Jigar: "Seems Aus batters have come up with a pre-determined mindset to play more sweeps and reverse sweeps.. They are more dangerous playing traditional shots. Pitch is not looking that threatening when batting with straight bat.."
