Aus 465-9 (119 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

Jadeja continues as Lyon hits the first ball towards point for a single and a watchful Boland happy to block the remaining five deliveries.

Akash Deep from the other end. Lyon gets a single first ball before Boland takes one off the next to get off the mark.

Another run for Lyon to fine leg and Boland gets two runs off the next courtesy of an overthrow to make it five runs from the over.

The two lower order batters not throwing their wickets away, instead looking to collect the ones and twos and take Australia closer to 500.

Lyon looks to have Jadeja over midwicket but mistimes it to long-on for one.

Jadeja strikes again as Boland is given out leg before wicket before he reviews immediately. There is a clear inside edge before the ball strikes the pads as the decision is overturned.

Siraj replaces Akash Deep. Lyon inside edges the first ball and rushes for a quick single as non-striker Boland clashes with Siraj, who tries to rush to his right to collect the ball but no drama this time around.

Siraj gets Boland leg before wicket with a full delivery which strikes him in front and again there is a review.

The full incoming delivery beat Boland on the inside edge but it is doing too much and going down to miss the leg stump.

Boland gets two on-field decisions overturned in the space of two overs to the umpires in a spot.

The last pair have put on 10 runs from 29 balls so far to frustrate the Indians.
