Nathan Ellis is into the attack 

 

Ball 1 Wicket!! Seems like Dinesh Karthik is running out of luck as he is missing straightforward balls and even the DRS is not working in his favour as the ball did hit his pad but from the naked eye it looked like the ball was going down leg. Not to be and India lose its sixth wicket 

 

Ball 2 Four!! Harshal Patel hits it through the line and gets a four past the cover region

 

Ball 3 This is Glenn Maxwell's acrobatics at its best as he saves a certain six and most importantly keeps it to only a single, saving five runs in the process. He took the catch and in the air decided to throw the ball back on the ground as he was over the boundary ropes 

 

Ball 4 Single taken
