Cummins scored 49 runs off 63 balls to take Australia past the 400-run mark in Melbourne and take his side to a dominant position in the match. Cummins was eventually undone by a delivery from Ravindra Jadeja where the right-hander lost his shape a little and Nitish Kumar Reddy took a stunning running catch to dismiss the Australian captain. Australia take commanding position in Melbourne: After the dismissal of Cummins, Steve Smith put on a good partnership with Mitchell Starc to put Australia on 454/7 at lunch on day two in Melbourne.
