- BATSMENRB4s6sSR6.4 slower length ball on middle, goes to flick over midwicket and a leading edge floats up to du Plessis at extra cover. He gets his hands in a slight tangle looking into the shadows but holds on with the crocodile jaw hands effort while falling backward. 29/23.3 back of a length, tries to heave this again over the leg side but a thin edge goes through behind the stumps at head height. 10/19.2 full on seventh stump, tries to sweep this over midwicket but he has to drag this from a long way outside off and the square boundaries are very deep here in Cardiff. Doesn't come anywhere close to reaching the rope. Simple catch 10 yards in from the rope at deep midwicket taken at chest height. 44/311.2 length ball on sixth stump, Miller walks through his shot trying to flick into the leg side and drags it onto his stumps. 53/4Extras3 (lb 2, w 1)TOTAL114/4 (20 Overs, RR: 5.7 per 6 ball)Fall of wickets: 1-10 (Tom Banton, 3.3 ov), 2-29 (Joe Clarke, 6.4 ov), 3-44 (Matt Critchley, 9.2 ov), 4-53 (David Miller, 11.2 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR10.3 snicked off! Clarke clings onto the edge this time. Another googly which Lyth has no answer to. A thin outside edge as he looks to push through mid-off, and a good catch 75/111.4 googly, hacked straight down Higgins' throat at long-off! Legspin does for Faf, as is often the case. Looking to repeat the trick, swinging the leggie down the ground, but mistimes the shot and picks out the fielder, 5 yards in off the rope 84/216.1 skips down, punched the googly straight to Cobb at short extra cover. Wiese wants the single, Brook has no interest and BBQs him! 107/316.4 googly, skids into the pads and deflects onto the stumps! Hose throws his head back in frustration 111/4Extras7 (b 4, lb 1, nb 2)TOTAL116/4 (18.1 Overs, RR: 6.37 per 6 ball)Fall of wickets: 1-75 (Adam Lyth, 10.3 ov), 2-84 (Faf du Plessis, 11.4 ov), 3-107 (David Wiese, 16.1 ov), 4-111 (Adam Hose, 16.4 ov)
