    4.1 Stone strikes straightaway! Shortish ball on the sixth stump channel, pace on delivery and Nissanka plays the pull shot away from the body, miscues the stroke and skies it high towards the short fine leg area. Phil Salt moves to his left side, settles underneath and gobbles it up under the night sky. the 40/1
    14.3 Sharafu takes a screamer! Pace off fuller length ball angling away outside off, shuffles across and extends his arms, drags it away from the body and hits it flat towards deep midwicket. Sharafu comes forward, sprinting and dives in fully stretched, pouches the low catch and holds onto it. 131/4
    7.1 And Chawla finds the breakthrough! Back of a length ball outside off, moves onto the back foot and plays a poor shot, a back-foot punch aerially straight to the safe hands of Alishan Sharafu at short cover. Soft dismissal! 70/2
    12.3 Another soft dismissal! Flighted length ball on middle-leg, Ali shimmies down the track again and tries to go over the midwicket area, deceived by the googly ball and outside edges a straightforward catch for Russell at short third. 112/3
    15.3 straight up in the air, and Holder completes the catch! Generously flighted googly ball on the fifth stump line, gets down on one knee and goes for the big heave across the line, clips it in the air towards the cover area inside the circle, Holder settles underneath and makes no mistake. 135/5
    16.5 slower ball does the trick again! Widish length ball outside off, Dickson throws his bat at it, extends his arms and only manages to chip it in the air to Narine at cover inside the circle. 143/7
    15.4 Cleaned him up with a beaut! Tossed up a flighted wrong-un ball on the fifth stump line, plays through the line of the ball with no visible foot movement, the ball turns in and sneaks past through the gap between bat-pad, hits the timber and sends the bails flying. 135/6

    7.2 soft dismissal! Bringing his length back a fraction short on middle-leg, turning in on the pads, Salt plays the on-drive without any foot movement and chips the ball with hard hands to the short midwicket fielder. 61/1
    14.3 Gurbaz celebrappeals but neither the bowler nor the umpire is interested. Vince sends it upstairs. Widish yorker ball outside off, Hales throws his bat at it and attempts to shovel it away, hitting the ground with the bat. Replay confirmed a faint edge as the ball passes the outside edge of the bat before Hales strikes the ground. Excellent game awareness from Gurbaz, and Hales' brilliant innings finally come to an end. 125/3
    9.4 Beaten by the googly and gone! Generously flighted wrong-un ball pitching on the off stump line and turning away, Livingstone hops out of the crease and goes for the big heave again like the previous over, only this time he misses the line and length completely, deceived by the googly ball and having no intention to return to the crease either, turns back and watches how Gurbaz clips the bails off. 80/2
    16.3 dragged onto the stumps, game on! Slower back of a length ball on middle-leg, he shuffles across for a paddle scoop but gets an inside edge onto his thigh pad, parrying the ball onto the top of the leg stump. Rutherford stands in a daze, offering a dry smile of disbelief before slowly trudging back to the dugout. 136/5
    15.2 squares him up with a peach! Slower through the air, googly ball pitching on middle-leg and turning away from the batter, Sharafu walks forward to negate the flighted ball across the line, closes the face of the bat early and completely misses the ball, disturbs the furniture and Shamsi is pumped up! 128/4

    18.3 chips it in the air and Vince grabs it! Slower bouncer ball around the fifth stump line, plays the swivel pull shot and mistimes it in the air. Vince moves forward a few steps from the cover area and grabs the catch with the reverse cup technique. 158/6
