Australia allout for 395 runs
Round one of the battle between the world's top-ranked teams could not have been more magnetic on a first day when the sides swayed between being in control and needing to catch up.

It felt as though the brutal start had never happened and that the batting side reaching 400 was as certain as the wind picking up in the afternoon.
