The game is evenly poised as we head into the second day of this crucial 3rd Test match.
7.2 Gillespie to Mørk: finally! First run for the CW wicketkeeper-batsman. He failed to score off the first 25, but he gets a single to long leg with his 26th! The crowd goes wild.
End of 14th over.
Clark is set to bowl for the first time in this match. His 4-wicket haul in the 2nd Test turned the game decisively for Australia in some ways, though the CW XI held on for the drawn result.
14.1 Clark to Mamesh: defended to the gully... no run.
16.2 Clark to Mamesh: pitched up and SLAMMED back over the bowler's head. No-nonsense cricket from Mamesh there.
Shane Warne gets the ball now. As always, this is a key moment in the innings.
19.1 Warne to Mamesh: legbreak... pushed off the backfoot to the gap in the covers and they scamper a single.
22.6 Clark to Mamesh: short and PULLED away! This young man looks a great talent. FOUR!
24.6 Clark to Mamesh: DRIVEN MAGNIFICENTLY through the offside! What a shot! FOUR more!
End of 26th over.
Symonds to bowl now. He played a loose shot to get out with the bat, so hopefully he will justify his selection better with the ball.
26.6 Symonds to Mørk: calmly forward and a perfect defensive stroke. Maiden over.
27.6 Warne to Mamesh: swept away... fifty for Mamesh! Exceptional innings here, and even the home crowd appreciates it.
T Mamesh 50 (69 balls), 5 fours, 0 sixes
28.1 Symonds to Mørk: flicked to the legside and Lee gathers quickly... DIRECT HIT! This could be tight for Mamesh. The third umpire reviews it...
RED LIGHT!
