"A Josh Hazlewood masterclass with the ball and a batting blitz by Mitchell Marsh carried Australia to a dominant four-wicket win in the second T20I against India at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. Fast bowler Hazlewood took 3-13 and racked up 15 dot balls in a devastating opening spell on Friday as Australia bowled out India for 125 in front of a crowd of 82,438 at the sporting colosseum."
"With Marsh winning the toss and electing to field, Hazlewood had Shubman Gill given out lbw on the first ball. While the decision was overturned on review, Hazlewood followed up with a short ball that crashed into the crest of Gill's helmet. A shook-up Gill slogged Hazlewood to be caught for five, triggering a top-order collapse. Hazlewood removed Suryakumar Yadav for one, the skipper's fourth single-digit score in six matches,"
