Toss: Australia, bat
It will be Nathan Hoy to bowl the first over of the game. He's been really sharp all tour long, but has not yet been rewarded with a big haul of wickets. Perhaps today is his day?
0.1 Hoy to Gilchrist: BEATEN! Good length and a bit of movement and Gilchrist was lucky there.
Xavier Rose will take up the attack from the other end. Much like his bowling partner, Rose has not had the success he has deserved in this series.
1.5 Rose to Katich: that's tailing back in... loud shout! Given not out by the umpire, but that was close!
1.6 Rose to Katich: full and pushed to cover - no run.
And that ends the second consecutive maiden of the innings! Incredible!
2.1 Hoy to Gilchrist: turned off the hip and he scampers a single. The first run of the match!
4.1 Hoy to Katich: too short and thumped away past the diving midwicket for FOUR!
5.4 Rose to Gilchrist: pitched up and driven past midoff. Lovely shot - FOUR!
6.1 Hoy to Gilchrist: BANG! Just a little bit of width and punished! FOUR!
8.6 Hoy to Gilchrist: down the legside and it's beaten Chaulk to go for FOUR! A wide goes to the boundary. Oh dear... Hoy is losing his way here...
9.1 Rose to Katich: full face of the bat and that races through the covers for FOUR!
The hero of yesterday, Camps is into the attack for the struggling Hoy...
10.6 Camps to Katich: played at his feet and a quick single. Good run to break up the maiden over attempt.
14.5 Camps to Katich: leading edge! DROPPED! Neil Pickup has dropped a sitter at midoff. Oh dear..
14.6 Camps to Katich: DRIVEN! DROPPED again! Unbelievable! This one was hit harder but once more straight at him, and Pickup has floored a virtual sitter! Two in two!
And as if scripted, it's Pickup who will replace Rose after a good opening spell. He has a lot to make up for...
15.4 Pickup to Gilchrist: he goes back and... HOWZAT?!? Plumb! Pickup has pulled one back. Misjudged by Gilchrist and the CW XI have broken through.
17.3 Pickup to Katich: he backs away and SMACK! Past point for FOUR! Katich not intent on letting Pickup forget those two drops.
17.5 Pickup to Katich: AGAIN! Too short and punished with the cut shot - FOUR.
18.1 Camps to Katich: CRASHED away through the covers - FOUR. Camps has a glance at Pickup. Fifty for Katich...
SM Katich 50 (67 balls), 5 fours, 0 sixes
18.2 Camps to Katich: down the legside and that's another boundary off the wide. Camps falling away too now...
Halsey replaces Camps. Double spin attack.
20.6 Halsey to Katich: missed the sweep and they've appealed for it. Turned down by umpire Bucknor.
22.5 Halsey to Ponting: clipped off his toes... he played against the spin, but he timed it beautifully - FOUR!
23.1 Pickup to Katich: DRIVEN... EDGED... TAKEN! Lovely bit of bowling there. A bit of drift and he has his man driving at a wrong 'un. Smart catch at slip.
23.2 Pickup to Jaques: paddled around very fine... Halsey cuts it off to save a run... good fielding, but there get 3.
24.1 Halsey to Jaques: full toss... driven... brilliant stop! And a mixup here! Goff fires to the 'keeper... direct hit! He's walking! Jaques goes!
24.3 Halsey to Martyn: HOW IZ THAT?!? GONE! Martyn doesn't trouble the score. Halsey picks him up with a googly. What a turn around!
25.1 Pickup to Ponting: long hop dispatched to the midwicket fence - FOUR.
25.2 Pickup to Ponting: late cut and they scramble a single.
25.5 Pickup to Symonds: he's bowled him!!! Australia in shambles now! That one kept low and didn't turn, and Symonds tried to play it off the back foot. 5 down!
