Glenn Maxwell (45 runs off 60 balls) was the highest scorer for the visitors.

Australia, resuming the post-tea session at 92/5, never looked comfortable on the turning track here.Maxwell, who seemed good at the crease, also departed soon falling to Ashwin in the 33rd over.

Apart from Maxwell, no other batsmen stood up to the occasion and there was a seemingly unending procession back to the pavilion.
