Australia have felt the heat in Kolkata, fielding in oppressive conditions during the second one-day international against India.
The visitors were exposed under the sun during the hottest part of the afternoon after India won the toss and decided to bat in Thursday's ODI.
While a maximum of 32 degrees was recorded, it felt much hotter with the apparent temperature reaching 42.
Wicketkeeper Matthew Wade required assistance early in the innings after showing signs of heat stess.
Kane Richardson came from the ground after bowling four overs, getting some respite from the conditions before returning to bowl a further six overs to finish with 3-55.

Pat Cummins bowled beautifully but inevitably begun to struggle with ice packs and towels brought out to the tall quick.
He finished his 10 overs with 1-34.
Spinner Ashton Agar cramped up after bowling nine overs, picking up 1-54.
The temperature also rose in the tone of the contest as Marcus Stoinis and Virat Kohli exchanged words.
It didn't seem to fluster the Indian skipper as he picked up another boundary in front of point from Stoinis's next delivery.
Wade joined in at the end of the over, but tensions didn't boil over before Kohli was out bowled by Nathan Coulter-Nile for 92 off 107 balls.
Kohli has a history of run-ins with Australia, famously declaring he had no friends in the opposition dressing room after a fiery Test series earlier in the year.
He later clarified, saying his comments only extended to a select group of Australian players.
