Jeremy Coney
Ex-New Zealand captain on BBC Test Match SpecialThe shorter ball again has done for Maxwell. It was a cue-ender. It was the natural way Neesham was going in his follow-through but it is a good catch.

Maxwell c & b Neesham 0 (92-5)
Wow! Another great catch!
Maxwell pulls a short one, but is a bit early on it and the ball loops up to the bowler's left. Neesham is alive to it and he dives to claim a brilliant, one-handed effort!
On TMS nowpublished at 15:10 British Summer Time 29 June 2019
It's back to the 80s on TMS now with Jeremy Coney joining AB in the box - they were opposing captains for a time when New Zealand had a really good side including Sir Richard Hadlee, John Wright and the late, great Martin Crowe.
Aus 92-4published at 22 overs
Mitchell Santner is on for Sodhi with his left-arm spin, but he concedes nine runs off two deliveries - hit for four by Khawaja, then conceding four wides to add five to the score.

Here's Glenn Maxwell - is he going to bat in the way he usually does or knuckle down and eke the runs out?

Allan Border
Former Australia captain on TMSThere was just a little bit of away movement off the seam. That is a big wicket. Stoinis can be dangerous. Australia are in a little bit of strife.

Stoinis c Latham b Neesham 21 (Aus 81-4)
Just when the rebuilding job looked to be getting going, New Zealand winkle out the dangerous Stoinis!
Neesham gets one to move away from the right-hander, it takes the edge and Latham pouches a regulation catch behind the stumps.

Allan Border
Former Australia captain on TMSThe top order was always going to miss out at some stage. This might be the test that Australia need.
Aus 77-3published at 19 overs
Sodhi, bowling from the Pavilion End, is getting some turn but isn't worrying the batters too much as they nurdle four from his fourth over.
One of the all-time greats is on TMS right now - they've been joined by former Australia skipper Allan Border. He'd relish this kind of situation.

In among all the reaction to Guptill's stunner, at the other end of the scale was this howler from Trent Boult.
We've all been there, Trent...
Aus 73-3published at 18 overs
Neesham sends down a decent first over, conceding just one from his brisk medium-fast offerings.
Aus 72-3published at 17 overs
Usman Khawaja has been the onlooker while the thrills and spills have taken place at the other end - he's almost gone unnoticed and has 24 from 36 deliveries. He manages to work Sodhi around to keep ticking over, though.
Jimmy Neesham will replace Ferguson at the Nursery End.

Relatively low-scoring thriller, anyone?

The players are taking a drinks break after a breathless first 15 overs, and Ish Sodhi will resume from the Pavilion End.

This is incredible to watch with the pace of Lockie Ferguson.
Aus 68-3published at 15 overs
Oooh! Stoinis drives Ferguson up towards Kane Williamson at mid off, and the New Zealand skipper dives forward - but the ball just drops to the turf in front of him.
The bowler responds with an entirely predictable bouncer, but concedes just one from the over.
