00:00It's another beautiful morning here in St Lucia.
00:29The sun's shining. We had a little bit of rain, but that's given away to some strong breeze across the ground.
00:35And we're at the Darren Sammy Stadium in beautiful St. Lucia.
00:41Plenty of supporters, especially for India, around the ground.
00:47It's a pick clash coming up.
00:50Two heavyweights in world cricket pitted against each other in a must-win game, especially for Australia.
00:56The toss happened a little while earlier, and it was Australia who won the toss and had no hesitation in fielding first.
01:07So this game coming to you live from St. Lucia.
01:10The final game being played here, and it's the last game for both these sides in the Super 8.
01:18It's a big island, and you look at the groups here.
01:22India on top, but they know they can't take it lightly.
01:25They've got to win.
01:27Australia, on the other hand, have to win this game because Afghanistan will play Bangladesh later on tonight.
01:34So all set for play to start in a bit.
01:37We've done with the national anthems.
01:40We've got Ricky Ponting, Sonny Garvaskar with me.
01:42Good morning, gentlemen. Good morning, all.
01:44Good morning, Ravi. Good morning, Ricky.
01:45Good morning, everybody.
01:46Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli will open the batting.
01:49And with their experience, they're expected to score plenty of runs.
01:53And the first six overs, Pant has been batting exceedingly well.
01:55And Suriko Mariado and the way have also batted well.
01:58Hardik Pandya really has been holding up the middle order.
02:01Cheneya hasn't really contributed as much with the bat, but Akshal Patel certainly has.
02:05And the bowling is in the hands of Boomba and company.
02:07Well, it's a good Australian team as well.
02:09Lots of experience.
02:10The openers in this tournament have been outstanding.
02:11They need runs today for Mitchell Marsh.
02:14Mashal back to form last game.
02:15Stornis has been outstanding.
02:16The one change for Australia today is Mitchell Stark back into the line-up
02:20at the expense of left-arm spinner Ashton Agar.
02:23They've got all the work to do now, this Australian bowling brigade with this new ball.
02:27They need to take early wickets against India.
02:30Final Super 8 games for both the sides.
02:34And a must-win game for Australia.
02:36Here's Stark.
02:37Juicy, full toss.
02:42He's missed out there, Roy Sharma.
02:45Oh, yes.
02:46Any batter would have loved to put it away.
02:48Get off the mark.
02:50Get some runs under the belt.
02:52Pretty missed out.
02:53Probably didn't expect it.
02:55The Yorker gone a little too full from Mitchell Stark.
02:59Straight to that fielder there.
03:02This is almost like a benefit match, full toss, isn't it?
03:04Well, that's wide.
03:09Has that carried?
03:10The Australians are appealing.
03:12It's half-hearted goal.
03:13Yeah, Stark just walked straight back to his mark.
03:19It's going to be whether this actually hit the toe of the bat on the full and then into the ground.
03:23The umpires have come together.
03:28A bit of uncertainty out.
03:29I'm sure they'll have a look upstairs.
03:33Stark said he thought we'd hit the ground first.
03:37They've gone upstairs.
03:38TV umpire to director.
03:44We have an umpire review for a bump ball.
03:47I've checked the place on the feet.
03:48It's a fair delivery.
03:49Start off the front on spin mission, please.
03:56Correct, yes.
03:57OK, front on spin mission, coming up now.
04:20Just rock and roll that, please, again.
04:22Just take it back.
04:23Yeah, it appears that the ball has bounced off the tip of the bat.
04:31Yeah, the ball has clearly bounced off the tip of the bat, so I'm ready for my decision on the big screen.
04:42Clearly bouncing after hitting the bat, but you can see what Stark is trying to do.
04:45He's pushing it out wide, just hoping for swing with the strong breeze.
04:49No swing as yet from there.
04:50That's in the air, in the gap as well.
04:56And the first boundary of the innings.
05:00Yeah, it's very full again, as expected.
05:03Pretty much a half volley this one.
05:04It did dip in late, and it wasn't right out of the middle of the bat either from Rohit Sharma.
05:09Vickish inside edge finds the gap between mid-wicket and mid-on.
05:12Races away for four, setting up, waiting for that delivery, isn't he's expecting that?
05:19That's up in the air.
05:29And should be taken.
05:30Yes, taken.
05:32He got it high on the bat.
05:34Was surprised with the short delivery.
05:36And Australia have struck early with the wicket of Virat Kohli.
05:42It was a good running catch by David.
05:44And a good short ball from Hazelwood.
05:47Looked like it caught Kohli off guard.
05:49And it's a very good catch running back.
05:51It's into the wind.
05:52That's the important thing here.
05:53Kohli's hitting this into the breeze.
05:55So it stayed up there for a long time.
05:57Never easy running back like that.
05:59Tim David, the man.
06:01Exactly the start that Australia were after.
06:05Dangerous.
06:05Virat Kohli goes.
06:07India, six for one.
06:16Oh, glorious shot, this.
06:19First six of the game.
06:24What a shot.
06:26Pure timing there from Rohit Sharma.
06:29Very full again from Mitchell Stark.
06:32And not much swing back, but he just waits late.
06:35Opens the face of the blade and caresses that over extra cover for six into the breeze as well.
06:41Made a beautiful sound off the bat.
06:44In there, just manipulate the face of the bat with that bottom hand.
06:49Change of field now.
06:50Slip comes out.
06:52Strengthens up the offside.
06:56And that's the beauty of Rohit Sharma batting, isn't it?
06:59He's not phased by the loss of Virat Kohli at the other end just a few deliveries ago.
07:05If the ball is there to be hit, he's going to hit it.
07:10And again, the result the same.
07:17He will check it though if it's just bounced before hitting the rope.
07:22First impression, hit the rope on the full.
07:24And what a sweet sound it made.
07:26Even better than that first six.
07:30Well, this is going to be a tough one.
07:32Maybe it's a boundary that might have bounced just before it hit that boundary rope over there.
07:39Another closer look now.
07:42And it'll be six.
07:45Beautiful shot again.
07:46Now the pressure comes right back on Mitchell Stark.
07:49This looks to me like he's worried about the boundary on the leg side.
07:53Hitting with the breeze.
07:54He's getting too wide.
07:59Six, all right.
08:02Yes, mate, I just have to pull back his length a little bit.
08:05But this is a good counterattack after the wicket.
08:10Goes again, clears mid on.
08:1216 off the last three balls.
08:21This time he's moved across to the off stump.
08:25Recognizing that Stark might look to go a little wider off the off stump.
08:29You can see that and then looking to play that over mid on.
08:32Didn't quite connect well, but connected well enough to take it over that fielder at mid on.
08:38Like the way he got across his stumps, the anticipating ball on the stumps.
08:45Pitted away on the onside.
08:46Now, a further change in the field.
08:50More, more fielders on the offside.
08:54It's three on the on.
08:58Yeah, the backward square legs come across to a short third,
09:02which allows them to put their third a lot square.
09:05He's at a deep backward point now.
09:08That's bank.
09:10Nice, meaty sound.
09:12Third six of the over.
09:13And this is into the crowd.
09:15He's going to change it up here, Mitchell Stark.
09:16It's too predictable.
09:19Pitching it up, trying to swing it back.
09:20There's not much movement there.
09:21He hasn't used the short ball yet, or he hasn't used a change of pace.
09:25That's right in the slot.
09:28Set himself for it, and a release in the hands.
09:31That's a great swing in the cricket bat.
09:33Finds the middle of the bat, and goes a long, long way back over mid-wicket.
09:3922 runs from the over.
09:41So far.
09:42But I like the way he's guessing where Stark is going to bowl, and setting himself up.
09:53The way he's setting himself up, if he bowls wide, he can still go over extra cover.
09:57But if anything is in line of the stumps, he's going to whack it away on the onside with the field up.
10:02Oh, up in the air, safe.
10:08Another six.
10:12Four sixes in the over.
10:1529 of the last over, and Stark's most expensive over in T20 International.
10:20It's 35 for one.
10:28Mitchell Stark was looking to angle the ball across.
10:30He just tried to go fuller, and he sliced it.
10:37Oh, massive.
10:40He's picked the bones out of that.
10:42That's the biggest six.
10:44It's on the roof.
10:45Tan, tan, tan, is the noise.
10:50Magnificent.
10:51Absolutely magnificent.
10:53Once again, shuffling towards the off stump.
10:56Always intending to hit the ball to the onside, because the offside's back.
11:00What a shot.
11:05206 for Rohit Sharma in T20 International's.
11:09First player to do so.
11:11Landing on the roof.
11:13And as we speak, the rain just picks up.
11:16The cover's coming off.
11:18Rohit Sharma will be disappointed because he was looking in magnificent touch.
11:21Oh, that's gone like a tracer bullet into the fence.
11:35It's sped off the surface.
11:38Down the track.
11:39Luck.
11:42Luck.
11:44Favouring the brave here.
11:4750 comes up for India.
11:57So he takes a single.
11:58Another very good over for India.
12:0015 coming off it.
12:03After five, it's 52 for one.
12:07And Rohit Sharma has reached 50 of just 19.
12:11Sparkling innings this.
12:14And the final super eight clash.
12:18And in a game, that's a must win for Australia.
12:2152 for one.
12:22That's a really good shot, this from Rishabh Panth.
12:36Short ball.
12:36And Hazelwood does ball a heavy ball.
12:38To be able to go on the front foot and just pull it over mid-on, mid-wicket gap.
12:42It's quite an effort.
12:44The intent is there.
12:45Indians have come out firing.
12:46Lands the ball, blows straight away against Amba.
12:56That boundary is unlocked, Rishabh Panth.
12:58Lovely use of the feet.
12:59It's very, very light on his feet.
13:02It's great intent from Rishabh Panth.
13:04They know they can't afford to let Adam Zandt settle into his spell.
13:08Been Australia's best bowler for quite a few years now.
13:11And he says, I'm going to take you on first up.
13:13The left-hander with the ball turning in.
13:15He's got the odds in his favour.
13:20Connects beautifully like everything that's come out of his bat today.
13:25It is one giant sweet spot, that cricket bat.
13:32Pomo.
13:34At the moment, Roy Sharma has got only one thing in his mind.
13:38Do I hit it for four?
13:39Do I hit it for six?
13:40It's a very pleasant dilemma to have.
13:45This one connects dramatically.
13:48The sound of the bat, it doesn't matter whether you're hitting into the breeze or anywhere.
13:54Oh, at the moment, Roy Sharma hit the ball anywhere.
13:56Yeah, like you said, Harsha, the sound off the bat.
14:00It's a loud crack.
14:02Roy Sharma in amazing form today.
14:07It was predictable from Stoinis.
14:10Roy's stepping out the ball before and hooking to the leg side.
14:13This time he decides to hang back in the crease.
14:15He clears that front leg.
14:16He's only got one thing in his mind.
14:19He's not worried about the breeze.
14:21It's only 66 metres out that side.
14:22Now on inside out, this is sheer class.
14:31We've seen Roy Sharma play the pull shot so many times.
14:34But if you want to see class written all over a shot on a cricket ground, this is the shot to watch.
14:40Oh my God, I've seen a few shots in this World Cup.
14:43For me, this is definitely the best shot so far.
14:46He made it look too easy.
14:48It's the free-flowing rhythm from the bat coming through.
14:51Hands going nicely through the ball.
14:53Marcus Stoinis, you haven't done too badly there.
14:55Bad luck.
14:56You're bowling to a firing Roy Sharma here.
14:59Wow.
15:02Oh, this could be danger.
15:04And it is for Rishabh Pant.
15:08Hazelwood comes under, takes the catch.
15:11Australia get one more.
15:12Not the one they wanted, but they'll be very happy with the Pant wicket.
15:17Rishabh Pant just looking to knock it around on the leg side.
15:21Just when he started getting momentum in this innings,
15:24looks to play one off the stumps and gets the leading edge.
15:26The bounce of St. Lucia.
15:28Or rather probably the stackiness of the pitch that
15:31Vince and Harsha Boghly were speaking about.
15:34Simple catch.
15:34Hazelwood doesn't miss many.
15:37India lose their second wicket.
15:41Rishabh Pant.
15:43Goes for 15.
15:44India 93 for 2.
15:51Finds a gap on the offside.
15:53It's a bit of a chase.
15:55It's too far away.
15:56100 comes up for India.
15:58In very, very quick time.
16:00In uncomfortably quick time for Australia.
16:02100 foot 2 in just 8.4 overs.
16:08Just all lights his day.
16:13Tall man fielding inside the boundary.
16:15Inside the 30 yard circle.
16:16Mid Stark and it just cleared him for four.
16:18It was a well-directed short ball from Marcus Stoinis.
16:22And Rohit Sharma's looking to go up and over.
16:25Backward square.
16:28It's on him quick.
16:29Hits high on the bat and it just gets over Mitchell Stark.
16:33Goes with the outstretched hand.
16:34To find margins in this game.
16:39When it's going your way, you have to make the most of it.
16:42Rohit Sharma's definitely doing that today.
16:49Goes through with the pull shot.
16:50And one bounce inside.
16:52It looked for a while.
16:53It might clear the boundary too.
16:55Who just might have held up in the wind.
16:57But he's gone on to 87.
16:59Just 35 balls.
17:01This is some rollicking start by India.
17:09From where he picked that up.
17:11To get the boundary.
17:13Only Surya Kumar Yadav can do that.
17:15It's an incredible follow-up.
17:25He's just extended the arms and it goes all the way.
17:30127 for two.
17:38Got him.
17:40Stark goes through.
17:42Rohit Sharma.
17:43And the crowd goes quiet.
17:46He's been dominating.
17:49But Stark has the last word.
17:52That's a very good delivery.
17:56Angling in from around the wicket.
17:59Almost to Yorker.
18:03He was looking to play it.
18:07To the onside, was he?
18:09Yes, you can see that.
18:10Almost to Yorker.
18:11Oh, bit of an inside edge.
18:13On to the pads.
18:14And then on to the stumps.
18:17Well, a fabulous innings coming to an end here.
18:22Give me a bit of ill luck there.
18:2592 to him.
18:26And a total of 127 for three.
18:2812 overs.
18:28That's really well played.
18:29That's a really well played.
18:42Massal.
18:45On to the embankment.
18:46And when he hits the ball, it's got to go for a six.
18:53He's got that power.
18:55And the timing as well.
18:57Ball turning into him.
18:59Into the arc.
19:03That is a wonderful shot.
19:04Yeah, and that's what he's in this team for.
19:10Good selection, I thought, by India.
19:12As this tournament goes on, the wickets are going to get slower.
19:14There's going to be more and more spin bold.
19:16And to have someone that can hit spin, like Shivam Dubé, in the middle, is an absolute bonus.
19:20Grunched down the ground.
19:28Brute force from Shivam Dubé.
19:33There's not much margin for air up.
19:34This is a very, very good batting wicket.
19:36And a fast outfield.
19:38Tempted Yorker from Stoinis.
19:41Didn't quite get it full enough.
19:47Surya Kamaryadev into the action as well.
19:50Raining sixes here in St. Lucia.
19:56150 up for India.
19:57154 for three.
20:01Was that the slower one?
20:03Yes, it was.
20:07Yes, you can see the slower one.
20:10It was halfway down the pitch.
20:12And Surya Kamaryadev just waiting for it.
20:15Between both fielders, the placement is perfect from Surya Kamary.
20:24Here's the precision.
20:26He's played that shot so late, knowing that there are two fielders there.
20:31Behind point in the 30-metre circle.
20:33Look at that.
20:36Between those two fielders, no protection, a boundary.
20:39Good start for India.
20:40Wide ball.
20:46And caught behind.
20:50Disappointing for Sky.
20:52He's on the charge.
20:53But Australia have an important breakthrough.
20:55There's an interesting interaction here as well between Mitchell Stark and Marcus Stoinis.
21:04Stoinis ran up to him after the last ball.
21:07It looks, by the look of it, told him to get it out there.
21:09Ball wide.
21:09Take the pace off.
21:11It's a little nick and it just balloons through to Matthew Wade.
21:14That's what he's doing there, Mitchell Stark.
21:18He's actually clapping down in Marcus Stoinis' direction.
21:21That's a big breakthrough for Australia.
21:23Very dangerous once again.
21:25Surya Kamaryadev, he's gone for 31.
21:27159 for four.
21:32He might have got a wicket here.
21:34Oh, he's put it down.
21:35Australia.
21:37Australia, what's with your catching in this year's tournament?
21:39That's a soda by the modern standards.
21:50There's a lot of breeze up there.
21:52Just wonder whether the fielder, beside Mitch Marsh here, has put him off at all.
21:58Hazelwood getting close.
22:00Just never gets it in the middle of his hands.
22:02Runs coming in once and two so far, but that's a welcome boundary for India.
22:13Before this, the last 15 balls, 19 balls, it produced just 15 singles at 1-2.
22:18Marcus Stoinis will bowl the 19th.
22:23And he will travel because that is a sensational shot.
22:26Just look at that shot again and again to realize how special and how difficult that shot is.
22:32Look at the distance he's covered to reach him.
22:35He's always had a great back swing, not Dick Pandya.
22:39Nice high back lift, but again, guest right here.
22:43He's wide from Stoinis.
22:45He's reached well there.
22:47Underneath it, the weight was on the back foot.
22:51Get into that position to get the elevation.
22:53Terrific shot.
23:04And goes straight down.
23:05This will clear the boundary two for another six.
23:08He's a superb striker of the ball and that half-century in the previous game
23:12just put him in the perfect frame of mind.
23:15That's good batting.
23:17He understands that Marcus Stoinis is looking to go wide.
23:20He's trying to stay away from the boundary with the breeze to the leg side.
23:25Ball before he gets across his crease.
23:28Freeze his hands over cover.
23:30This is just as good.
23:31His ability to get his weight through the ball, that's right out of the middle.
23:35Just a little chip, just a little chip.
23:42It finds the fielder.
23:44David Warner's in the deep there, and Shibam Dubé's got to go.
23:48Yeah, he said it's just a chip.
23:53It's not one that he's looked to try and clear the ropes.
23:56He tried to tuck it into the leg side.
23:58But it's good execution from Stoinis.
24:02He gets the ball straight enough.
24:04Doesn't allow that big swing arc of Shibam Dubé.
24:10It's a good catch from Warner.
24:11Had to make some ground.
24:13Ball travelling into the breeze is never easy to judge.
24:17Dubé's gone for 28.
24:18India 194 for 5.
24:20There's a fielder in the deep with the wind, takes it sailing over.
24:29It wasn't the most powerfully struck ball, but he just hit it up in the wind.
24:34And it was his friend.
24:35200 comes up.
24:38Cummins will be disappointed with the line that he's bowled there.
24:42Into today's arc from around the wicket.
24:45Doesn't have to over hit it.
24:47Just got to fall in the middle and get it up in the breeze.
24:50Let the wind do the work.
24:52Should be targeting the wide line.
24:54Make Jadeja hit out towards the offside.
24:56Last ball coming up already.
24:58204 on the board.
24:59Cummins.
25:02Hardik.
25:05Just a single and that equals the highest total against Australia.
25:08T20 World Cups.
25:09205 for 4.
25:11This is 205 for 5.
25:13It's been a wonderful batting performance.
25:15This by India.
25:16Hardik finishes 27 of 17.
25:18But the star was that man.
25:20Rohit Sharma within innings for the ages.
25:24India had 15 sixes.
25:26That could well be the issue when Australia come out of bat.
25:29206 to get from 20 overs to stay in the tournament.
25:32What a game we've got coming up.
25:34What an afternoon we're having here in St. Lucia.
25:43Land that's been blessed by nature.
26:00A cricket-loving country.
26:03And at the Darren Sabi cricket ground.
26:05One of their proudest sons.
26:06We've seen an extraordinary display of batsmanship.
26:10Now we're looking forward to see if Australia can match what India have done.
26:14We've got a fabulous afternoon ahead of us.
26:17Let her inspire you, they say about St. Lucia.
26:20Now who can be inspired here?
26:21Rohit Sharma was India where they put on 205.
26:25Now Australia to stay alive.
26:26206 to win from 20 overs on a ground that's in 15-6 is hit already.
26:36What are we seeing in the first over?
26:37Arshdeep Warner.
26:39Fight on!
26:40The one area that David Warner has really worked on, Ricky, is the fact that he was always
26:49a very good offside player, but then his stroke player on the leg side as well.
26:54I think that's a result of where teams bowl to him now as well.
26:57He's had to develop a stronger leg side game for that reason.
27:00Because he's so strong, like most left-handers are.
27:02Point, backward point.
27:04Teams actually always start now with a deep backward point to him to take one of his boundary options away.
27:10Oh, it just beats Rishabh.
27:15He's going in the direction of the ball and DK, he'll understand sometimes those bottom edges can be so cruel to the keeper.
27:21Yeah, he was going the wrong direction.
27:23But I think Rishabh Panpul know he could have stopped that.
27:25Just a touch late in getting down.
27:27That's what happens when you just stand up a little more than you should.
27:30You've got to understand he's coming back from an injury and hence,
27:33it's not that easy to be constantly low with the glove low to the ground.
27:38Going in one direction.
27:40Just a touch late and that's all it takes.
27:43Ball to run away from you.
27:45He's kept so far really well.
27:46He's phenomenal in the IPL, I thought.
27:48Some of the catches that he took and he's been good in this World Cup as well.
27:55Oh, the edge!
27:56The edge!
27:57India get the perfect start that they wanted with that lovely away swing movement.
28:04That's a beautiful, classic left arm swing bowler's dismissal of a left-handed top-order batsman.
28:16Beautiful release here.
28:17Good length.
28:18Look at that seam position.
28:19It's spot on.
28:22Lack of footwork from Warner and good catch.
28:26Surya Kumar Yadav to his left.
28:28Massive breakthrough.
28:30His fifth wicket in the power play in this World Cup for Arshtide.
28:32And the experience of David Bourne is gone.
28:36Australia lose their first.
28:38They're six for one.
28:38Now, Rishapand falls just short.
28:47I just wonder, in his feet, whether he just slipped a little bit.
28:57How's that come with a glove?
29:01Neil, he stumbled going for the catch.
29:04And then, once he realised they couldn't get there, he just patted the ball away.
29:07But Mitchell Marsh had taken off halfway down the wicket.
29:10Look for all money, like Rishapand was going to get this.
29:13It's extra bounce.
29:13It's off the glove.
29:16It lands safe there.
29:18He just taps it away.
29:18Have a look at Mitchell Marsh's.
29:25He's got that over the infield.
29:27That should make its way to the boundary, even if it doesn't exactly speed its way there.
29:31But it doesn't matter.
29:32It's a four and a welcome one.
29:37One of Mitchell Marsh's strength, the fact that he can play the full shot, just a shot of length.
29:43It's been a paying shot for him over the years.
29:45Our team's slightly erring in length, and that's all Mitchell Marsh needed.
29:49It's going to bring about a change in the field as well.
29:51Beats the field.
29:58And that's a shot we see Marsh play so often.
30:01Standing up tall, punching through the line.
30:03Yeah, and what makes it better is that it's a slower ball as well.
30:08He's taking the pace off that arch deep.
30:11Waited very late.
30:13There it is.
30:13There's that slower ball again.
30:14He waits and waits and waits, and then there's the timing.
30:19Hits it underneath his eyes and his head.
30:21Yeah, look, almost off his back knee.
30:22Beautiful timing, beautiful placement.
30:28Nice little confidence boost for the Australian captain.
30:32Soon after he was put down, had to be taken by Arsdeep.
30:35Briefly suggested.
30:38And now Mitch Marsh up in the air.
30:40Fielder, where is the fielder?
30:42He's lost the ball.
30:45He's lost the ball.
30:46He has no idea where it is.
30:47It doesn't matter because it's gone the distance.
30:49He came running in, and absolutely no idea where the ball was.
30:5422 for 1.
31:03How good was that shot?
31:04As soon as he hit it, you kind of knew that it was going the distance.
31:07Didn't realize it'd go outside the ground.
31:09That's the power this man possesses.
31:11We've seen a few go outside the ground today.
31:14Ashur Patel didn't have a clue where that was.
31:16That is a dead off the mark.
31:22He is now in a typical Travis Head style, just slashing at the ball.
31:31Boomerau would know that this is not the best ball to bowl to Travis Head.
31:34He's very strong on the offside, especially when he gets room to cut a ball.
31:39That's when he's at his most dangerous.
31:41He makes his own room, doesn't he?
31:46One of those players that you say stays, legs sort of the ball.
31:48Look where his feet are there.
31:49He's actually giving himself room outside leg stump.
31:52Understanding that Boomerau wants to bowl straight.
31:54Look where he's standing.
31:55Even both of his toes are on that leg stump guard.
31:57Now through the onside, Australia mounting a counter-attack here.
32:03Straight after that chance.
32:06They've gone 4-6-4-4.
32:10Yeah, I think we'll start to see some variation now from Boomerau.
32:12That swing is not there.
32:15Slips coming out to mid-wicket.
32:16I think we might see a Yorker, might even see a slow ball change of pace.
32:20He's a very one-paced hitter, Travis Head.
32:28One more boundary.
32:34Travis Head has started to upset Boomer's length here.
32:39And Australia on a roll.
32:40The familiar side for a lot of us Indians.
32:46Found a way to keep our bowlers at bay.
32:49And he keeps continuing.
32:54Now he connects.
32:55And makes it look easy.
32:58He had to shorten his length and he was waiting for it.
33:01It's cat and mouse.
33:03It's actually hard for the left arm off spin.
33:05It's a ball from this end of the right hand.
33:06It's because the breeze is pushing everything in.
33:10I think this is all about length.
33:12I said he can't afford to get too full.
33:13In fact, he probably has to try and get really full.
33:15Almost get it under the swing of Mitchell Marsh.
33:18Otherwise, it's going to be a very easy hit.
33:20Just like that one there.
33:25He's got to start now, Marsh.
33:2622 or 14.
33:30Just look at his back and he just collapses enough to get that gap.
33:33Overshot square leg.
33:34Oh, just fast.
33:40Just fast.
33:41And because there's not much support behind him, it'll go for another four.
33:44So, missed out on two sweeps, connected on two.
33:48This very difficult assignment that Akshar Patel has.
33:51Well, it's a hot spot right there.
33:53This particular field and the way that Akshar bowls.
33:55That is the hot spot.
33:55You're better off having your best fieldsman in that exact spot.
33:58So close, yet so far.
34:08Disdain.
34:09Absolute disdain from Travis Head.
34:1250 up and 50 up in style.
34:14Mentioned earlier that if Australia had to come out there to come out smoking in the first six.
34:18And make sure that they keep that required rate.
34:23They go ahead of the required rate.
34:25Because it becomes difficult to catch up.
34:29This is a lovely strike.
34:31Nice follow through as well with the bat.
34:33Good balance.
34:40Launched.
34:42Into the stands.
34:43Travis Head on the child show in St. Lucia.
34:48Aussie fans loving it.
34:5165 for one.
35:00Again, it's a nice easy swing from Travis Head.
35:03Just gets us such a solid base.
35:06He's looking to play both sides of the wicket.
35:08He's so dangerous.
35:09Talk about his offside play.
35:11But when he's in a mood like this, he's really calm.
35:16This has to get bad on ball.
35:21Straight down the ground.
35:23And reach the boundary for four.
35:25He hits it so hard.
35:27Does Travis Head.
35:28One of the best options for him would be to pull his offcutters into the pitch.
35:34Not give Travis Head pace of the back foot.
35:37The strike.
35:37His only option then would be to go for the big one over mid wicket.
35:44Clears that front leg nicely.
35:46To pick his spot.
35:47It was pace off on that occasion.
35:53It's just a fraction too full.
35:55Hardy could be looking to use a cut shot almost as a defensive option.
36:00Make him hit it out to the offside.
36:02Saw more Sixers leg side.
36:05Travis Head's leg side.
36:06Than offside in the first innings from India.
36:09Such a long boundary into the breeze.
36:10Six runs.
36:17Well, Travis Head is not going to die wandering here.
36:20He's on the charge against an Indian bowling line-up that are feeling the pressure.
36:25Yeah, and that's the area that he wants to target with the wind, the shorter boundary.
36:32This time it's just sitting up into the surface, but it's too straight.
36:38You know, all you've got to do is get it up in the air.
36:42Sir Akuma Yadav had no chance at the deep mid wicket boundary.
36:44What a catch.
36:53That looked to be sailing over the ropes.
36:57And Atchah Patel grabs onto a blinder.
37:01What a catch.
37:03He was in off the rope.
37:06And Mitch Marsh nails this, but it's just too flat.
37:11And at the time, he's jumped to perfection.
37:13And he's dragged it in with both hands.
37:17That's outstanding.
37:19This is simply magnificent under pressure.
37:22This is flat as a tank coming at you at great speed.
37:27Not only has he timed his jump to perfection,
37:31he had to get as tall as he could and reach out.
37:34And he's plucked it out of thin air with that right hand.
37:38And Mitch Marsh will be wondering,
37:41what else can I do?
37:42He goes for 37 of 28.
37:46And Australia losing their second wicket again.
37:49It's 87.
37:5087 for two.
37:57Crunched away.
37:58One of his favourite shots.
38:00Travis Head gets four.
38:02He's enjoying Hardick's pace here.
38:06Seeing it more difficult to get called it yet.
38:07Have a way at the other end.
38:08Oh, a miss field.
38:17That brings up 50 for Travis Head.
38:2250 of 24 delivery.
38:24Six fours and three sixes.
38:27Brilliant innings.
38:28Brilliant innings.
38:29This has taken the attack to the opposition.
38:32Naksha Patel.
38:36They're just showing.
38:38That is human.
38:43What a 50 this is.
38:45Australia just doing it right in the chase.
38:49Mentioned 10 overs, 100 foot two.
38:51They're just about there.
38:58Through.
39:00And Travis Head is leading the way for Australia here.
39:05The second 50 in the tournament.
39:06Third overall in the format.
39:07Looking good.
39:15Right, Jadeja.
39:17Oh, it goes past the fielder.
39:19100 comes up.
39:21In what is turning out to be a stirring run chase.
39:24What a shot from Glenn Maxwell.
39:27First ball.
39:29Stays are into the attack.
39:30Pushing it through at nearly 100 kilometers an hour.
39:33This is class batting.
39:35He knows where the gap is.
39:36He waits really late on this.
39:38Opens the face of the bat and runs it between the two men inside the circle.
39:46And now turns left-hander.
39:48And goes the distance.
39:49This is very inventive.
39:52It's when he bats like this.
39:53You look at Maxwell and you say, oh, he's special.
39:57He is.
40:00Who can forget that double hundred he got in the World Cup against Afghanistan.
40:03On one leg.
40:05And here he's got two legs, two hands, two eyes.
40:07He's everything.
40:12And he does it again.
40:15Glenn Maxwell is turning it on here in St. Lucia.
40:17Now Travis Head, Travis Head, oh, just over.
40:27Longhoff looked interested for a while, but this is Travis Head, 125 for two.
40:31Oh, no, Jamal, this is top bowling from Kuldeep Yadav.
40:41Though as Maxwell looks at the replay, he'll say he offered a little bit of help to Kuldeep
40:46too by walking out to play the kind of shot he did.
40:48Yeah, strange shot from Maxwell.
40:53Almost just walked out of his crease.
40:55Trying to hit him straight down the ground or across the lines of your wicket is a good piece of bowling.
41:01It's a googly from Kuldeep Yadav.
41:03Maxwell beaten all ends up.
41:04There's a left arm leg spinner for India, strikes a massive blow.
41:11The dangerous Maxwell is on his way.
41:14Australia 128 for three.
41:15Oh, just yanks it.
41:22Literally yanks it.
41:23That ball was headed somewhere else.
41:25He dragged it from outside off.
41:26Travis Head to hit with the win.
41:32Straight in.
41:35Straight in.
41:37Once again, it's the reverse sweep that finds the fielder.
41:41He could not have found the fielder better
41:43than he's ended up finding.
41:47Well, it's the shot that he's played a lot through this tournament.
41:51In his career until this world comes.
41:52He played 28 reverse sweeps.
41:54He played eight in the one innings against Scotland.
41:58First time he's tried it today.
41:59He's picked out the man.
42:00It's Hardik Pandira at backward point.
42:02It went in, it went out.
42:03It goes back in again.
42:06And unfortunately for Australia and Marcus Stoinis,
42:08he's got to go back in the shed.
42:10Big breakthrough for India.
42:12And Akshay Patel.
42:13Stoinis gone.
42:15135 for four.
42:22Now he's found the gap.
42:24He's found the gap on the offside.
42:25Travis Head just keeps going, keeps going.
42:28Australia need him to.
42:34Oh, he misses.
42:35And that'll go for four.
42:37That didn't miss the stumps by much.
42:38This is Travis Head's highest score.
42:44And this is World Cup previous high 68.
42:49See a full ball.
42:52Completely missed.
42:52Rishabh Pant was expecting Travis Head to hit that ball.
42:56By the time he realized that he missed him, he's touched too late.
42:59That's up with the egg.
43:07Could change of pace.
43:09Raj Sharma takes the catch.
43:11And that's the big wicket.
43:14With that of Travis Head.
43:17Beautiful change of pace.
43:19From just with Boombra.
43:20Has done the trick.
43:21He batted brilliantly.
43:25Took down Boombra.
43:26And one over in the power play.
43:28But with the old ball.
43:30Boombra is a different beast altogether.
43:32For the second time now in two balls.
43:34Ball is the slower one.
43:35Travis Head completely beaten.
43:38Speaking to Finchie before about how tough it is to play Boombra.
43:40And he said the slower one is probably the toughest ball.
43:42And you can see why.
43:44Travis Head goes out for a well-made 76.
43:47Australia in trouble.
43:48150 for five.
43:53Here he goes.
44:00Yes.
44:03Good sharp catch.
44:05Kuldeep Yadav diving forward.
44:07And under pressure.
44:08India pulling off some fine catches.
44:12That's a really sharp chance.
44:14And Pies will have a look at it.
44:18But from our vantage point.
44:19It looked like a clean catch.
44:27Takes the ball above the ground.
44:29Hands.
44:31Yeah.
44:31Hands it underneath the ball.
44:32Is that the only angles that you have, Deepak?
44:35That's the only angles.
44:36Okay.
44:36Yeah.
44:37Ball is clearly carried.
44:38So I'm ready for my decision on the big screen.
44:44I'm ready for my decision on the big screen.
44:46Yes.
44:46Looked out all the way.
44:49Good spot catch by Kuldeep Yadav.
44:53Another wicket for Ashdeep Singh.
44:55And India closing in now.
44:57Australia losing wickets at regular intervals.
45:001-5-3-4-6.
45:04That's well struck.
45:05And again, the fielding is good.
45:09No, it just goes into the boundary line.
45:19That's up in the air.
45:22And it's cleared the fence.
45:25Much needed this for Australia.
45:26I think a video of how big David could hit a six is.
45:35This one felt like a mishit.
45:37Still comfortably clearing.
45:39Virat Kohli at long off.
45:42Not the best ball.
45:44Ashdeep Singh crying for a Yorker.
45:49Yesterday a full toss.
45:51It's just the power of the players now.
45:53He's got long leavers.
45:54Tim David.
45:55So strong.
45:56And that's nowhere near the middle of the bat.
45:58Still hitting that probably 85 metres.
46:01This goes to show how impressive this skill is.
46:05Of being able to strike from very early in your innings.
46:10It's a different skill against an old ball with five fielders on the fence.
46:14Learning in the power play is a totally different skill.
46:16You've got two players you have to beat that are in the deep.
46:21Such a great skill.
46:22That's why every franchise needs players like this.
46:26That's why it's in the deep.
46:27That's why it's in the deep.
46:28That's why it's in the deep.
46:29Straight to Jaspreet Boomra.
46:32and India closing in Tim David the man dismissed and the seventh week it goes
46:41down for Australia
46:45it's not the best ball is ever bold our state see but he won't care
46:51I have full toss and it's a good sharp catch again it's a stinger for boomer
46:56short the Tim David he has to go for 15 Australia in
47:04trouble 166 for seven that's what's rock we'll go for six
47:19that's exactly the reason why boomerah last over didn't try a slow one to a
47:22right-hander Tim David didn't get anything slow but I believe boomerah
47:27thinks there's a chance to get a wicket looking for that but the wind really
47:33helping back coming here he literally made contact without any balance the ball
47:38ended up going tangent 10 15 yards inside outside the boundary he's not seen a
47:45yawker is that
47:52right on Kira
48:01it's all caught on the boundary yes take it
48:05in fact put down
48:10today Joe for all people thought it was carrying to him
48:15just falling short I just got his hands to
48:20that's the effect of the wind in the Caribbean and a couple of times bowlers
48:24have missed their run-up because of that and this one Jadija just thought it's
48:26coming straight to his hand he positioned himself in such a way that it was coming
48:30straight in and the ball just dipped on him
48:32that's why you see this world cup there will be plenty of catches dropped by good
48:36team and last ball of the game
48:39so it's India once again
48:42it's a comprehensive win they won by 24 runs
48:48and they've marched into the semi-finals and will make their way to Guiana to take on England
48:55so there you go in the chase they lost Warner early but then as long as head and marsh were together they were up with the run rate Australia and even when marsh got out Maxwell came and played a breezy innings of 20 but once he was dismissed at one front was the turning point of the contest and they started losing wickets at regular intervals boom rose what back and he struck with the wicket of head
49:02so India doing well to restrict Australia to 181 for seven and an all-round bowling performance
49:24Strict Australia to 181 for 7.
49:29And an all-round bowling performance.
49:30Arksteep started it off with a big wicket of David Warner,
49:33and he ends up with 3 for 37.
49:35Brilliant display, but it's that man Boomerang.
49:37One of the turning points as well was a two-over burst from Axel Patel.
49:42Australia just couldn't get him away.
49:43Run rate skyrocketed from required 10.5 up to 13.5 pretty quick.
49:51Full deep. Outstanding once again.
49:53Big wicket of Maxwell.
49:56Only going for 24 in a high-scoring affair.
50:00He should be very pleased with his performance.
50:05That's the confirmation.
50:06India batting first.
50:07Get 205.
50:08Thanks mainly to Rohit Sharma.
50:11And in reply, Australia 181 for 7.
50:13India comfortably win by 24 runs yet again in the Super 8 stage.
50:20So there you go.
50:21India have qualified for the semi-final.
50:23They'll fly to Guyana to play against England.
50:26Now, it's wide open in the group here.
50:29Afghanistan and Bangladesh play against each other later.
50:32If Afghanistan win, they go through.
50:35If Bangladesh win by 62 runs or more,
50:40then they have a chance to qualify as well.
50:43So Australia still very much in it as well.
50:47All depends on what happens later tonight.
