Commentary

137.6
Root to Pat Cummins, no run, did Pat Cummins get an inside edge onto the pad? I don't think so. Anyway short leg diving forward, couldn't catch it. Went to ground. Need a replay to confirm whether there was an edge onto pad
137.5
Root to Pat Cummins, no run, quicker and on the stumps, defended to short mid-wicket
137.4
Root to Pat Cummins, no run, down leg, padded away
137.34
Root to Pat Cummins, FOUR, beautiful lofted drive. Even though he didn't get to the pitch of it, used his long levers to lift it back over the bowler. Mid-on was just a spectator and escorted the ball to the fence
137.2
Root to Pat Cummins, 2 runs, slips it down leg, flicked past leg-slip and two more by the time long leg gets across
137.1
Root to Pat Cummins, no run, slower and Pat Cummins has all the time in the world to rock back and defend
135.6
Root to Pat Cummins, no run, again slows down the pace, Pat Cummins defends off the back foot
135.5
Root to Pat Cummins, 2 runs, fired down leg, flicked past leg-slip for two more
135.4
Root to Pat Cummins, no run, slower and on off, defended
135.34
Root to Pat Cummins, FOUR, again a poor delivery, half-tracker and spinning in, backward square is halfway from the fence, Pat Cummins swivelled and then hit it in the air, but well wide of the man there. Once it got past him, it was always a boundary
135.2
Root to Pat Cummins, no run, full on the stumps, forward and defended
135.1
Root to Shaun Marsh, 1 run, dragged down, whipped to deep square leg
133.6
Root to Pat Cummins, 1 run, slower and on leg-stump, turned wide of short leg for a single
133.5
Root to Shaun Marsh, 1 run, this time it catches the inside edge, Shaun Marsh pressing forward to smother that, played slightly outside the line of that delivery, that's why it took the inside edge, ran to the vacant square leg area
133.4
Root to Shaun Marsh, no run, flat and outside off, Shaun Marsh goes deep into his crease to defend
133.3
Root to Shaun Marsh, no run, very full on off, smothered
133.2
Root to Shaun Marsh, no run, drifts in on off and middle, catches the outer half of the bat on the forward defence
133.1
Root to Shaun Marsh, no run, tossed up outside off, turns away as Shaun Marsh lets it go
115.6

115.5
Root to Starc, no run, very full and on the stumps, Starc defends into the on-side

115.3
Root to Shaun Marsh, 1 run, pushed to sweeper cover
115.2
Root to Shaun Marsh, no run, fullish and on the off stump, Marsh defends
115.1
Root to Shaun Marsh, no run, is that a dropped chance? Root gets turn straightaway, Marsh was drawn forward in his defence, Bairstow didn't grab that cleanly, may not have taken the bat
