That's stumps. Barring a miracle Australia should win this tomorrow. New Zealand lost two wickets too many in the end of the day. Taylor has lots on his plate when he comes out tomorrow. New Zealand need another 184 with four wickets in hand.

43.6 Clark to Elliott, OUT, it's all happening for Australia, Elliott completely misjudges his off stump and shoulders arms, the ball lands on a good length just outside the offstump and cuts back in, Elliott offers no shot and timber
GD Elliott b Clark 0 (15m 10b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00
43.5 Clark to Elliott, no run, fullish on the stumps and he drives firmly down the pitch
43.4 Clark to Elliott, no run, full and swinging down the leg side, he tries to trickle it down to fine leg but misses
43.3 Clark to Elliott, no run, moves across his stumps and covers all three of them, he gets behind the line and works it to the on side
43.2 Clark to Elliott, no run, good length on middle and leg, he gets across and defends it away
43.1 Clark to Elliott, no run, lands on a full length outside off, he pushes it back down the pitch
Silly mid-on in place

40.6 Johnson to Elliott, no run, hits a good length on middle and leg, he defends down the track
40.5 Johnson to Elliott, no run, slides down the leg side, he tries to trickle it to fine leg but misses
40.5 Johnson to Elliott, 1 wide, oh goodness the ball lands outside off and moves away so sharply that it heads towards first slip, not Johnson's fault
Grant Elliott comes in. Johnson has his tail up
That ends a very impressive stint from Flynn. His team-mates can learn a thing or two from him
40.4 Johnson to Flynn, OUT, a wicket falls against the run of play, the ball swings in and lands on a fullish length, Flynn drives away from the body but is beaten for pace, the inside edge cannons on to the offstump
DR Flynn b Johnson 29 (98m 69b 5x4 0x6) SR: 42.02
40.3 Johnson to Flynn, no run, another ripping swinging yorker by Johnson, lands on the base of middle and off and Flynn does really well to keep it out, I tell you Wasim Akram would have been proud of that ball
40.2 Johnson to Flynn, no run, lands on a good length outside off and he shoulders arms
Very good partnership developing here MORECRICKET
