- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR11.5 good length ball outside the off stump. Mayank comes down the track and looks to go against the turn. He doesn't get it off the middle. The ball lands in the hands of the fielder at long-off. Similar dismissal to that of Anmolpreet, but the fielder didn't have to run yards 46/26.5 the aggressive instinct gets the better of him. Fuller and flighted on the middle stump. He is invited to play the lofted stroke as there is a fielder at mid-on.
