He was accompanied by Steve Smith & Shane Watson who left with some runs to complete their 50s. They gave a good contribution in this game .Warner, Maxi & Bailey managed to score around 20s. Once again Faulkner was the man who finished the match twice. Faulkner was impressive with the ball as well  as he took a crucial and vital wicket of Virat Kohli at right time.
