43.3 Australia 278-4

WICKET! Smith (73) b Malinga

Another wicket! Finch goes and Smith follows. Malinga brings out the yorker from around the wicket and smashes into the outside of off stump.

[15 June 2019 13:37 · Callum Rice-Coates]

44.0 Australia 280-4 Glenn Maxwell 5 Shaun Marsh 1

Two new batsmen at the crease then for Australia. They'll be hoping for some big hits in the final six overs. That was an excellent over from Malinga: just five runs and a wicket come from it.

[15 June 2019 13:40 · Callum Rice-Coates]

44.2 Australia 290-4 Glenn Maxwell 15 Shaun Marsh 1

Maxwell goes big! He cracks one down the ground for four and then smashes a six in the same place, leaning back and hitting a baseball-like slog over long-on.

[15 June 2019 13:42 · Callum Rice-Coates]

45.0 Australia 302-4 Glenn Maxwell 27 Shaun Marsh 1

A costly over from Pradeep. He invites Maxwell to hit three more boundaries and Australia bring up their 300. Twenty-two runs come from the over.

45.3 Australia 304-4 Glenn Maxwell 28 Shaun Marsh 2

[15 June 2019 13:47 · Callum Rice-Coates]

46.0 Australia 306-4 Glenn Maxwell 29 Shaun Marsh 2

Just four runs from Malinga's penultimate over. After a slow start, he's bowled well in the latter stages of Australia's innings.

[15 June 2019 13:52 · Callum Rice-Coates]

46.5 Australia 310-5

WICKET! Marsh (3) b Udana c Siriwardana

Marsh, frustrated by Udana's clever variations, goes for a big shot but can only pick out Siriwardana on the boundary. He managed just three runs from nine balls, so it might be a blessing in disguise for Australia. Carey is likely to be better suited to this situation.

[15 June 2019 13:59 · Callum Rice-Coates]

48.0 Australia 317-5 Glenn Maxwell 34 Alex Carey 4

Another solid over to finish for Malinga. Just seven off it and, crucially, no boundaries. 

[15 June 2019 13:59 · Callum Rice-Coates]

48.1 Australia 317-6

WICKET! Carey (4) run out Udana

Brilliant work from Udana, first to stop Maxwell's push down the ground and then to spin and hit the stumps at the other end with Carey out of his crease.
