    1.3 edged behind! There is some extra bounce for Farooqi, and Roy departs early. On the shorter side of a length, and angling across from over the wicket. The ball bounces considerably to come just outside off, as Roy looks to cut at it, but gets a top edge. I think the line was too close to cut as well 7/1
    15.3 this time taken by Lakra at fine leg! Farooqi bowled on a short of a length around off and at a change of pace, as Charles went thumping at the ball. It was hit flat and hard, but not all that powerfully to clear the boundary. Lakra, on this occasion, didn't have to move a step either side 140/5
    5.6 taken on the juggle! Avishka's cameo ends, but it was an impactful innings. There was a man placed at deep cover, and he moved forward a few steps to try and catch it close to his lap. The ball popped out, but Waseem eventually took it with his left hand out. Shepherd bowled another slower ball, and this was full and around sixth stump. Avishka went lofting through the line, but couldn't get any power behind it 57/2
    8.4 Salamkheil and Pooran are begging while appealing... and it's given out! But Mustafa reviews. On the shorter side of a length on off from Salamkheil, with the ball turning in to strike Mustafa's front pad. He was playing the reverse sweep, but there's no bat or glove involved, as he was beaten. We're still waiting for ball tracking... and replays confirm the ball would have hit the top of middle stump! So there was some good bounce there for Salamkheil, apart from the turn back in 72/3
    12.1 taken at long-off! Banton there was placed a few steps into the field of play, and didn't have to move while taking this. Joseph angled this across, and bowled full and around sixth stump. Wells went launching it back, but the bat seemed to have turned in his hands. That could be why there wasn't much force in the shot, and hence the ball didn't travel all that far 104/4
    18.6 gone! Another catch for Banton! He is placed at the longer side of the ground, and catches this a few steps into the field of play while also moving to his right. Another slower ball from Joseph, who bowled on a length on the stumps. Janat backed away to try and hoick it, but was beaten by the lack of pace as much by the length of the boundary 167/8
    17.2 comfortably taken by Pollard at long-on! Again, he's placed only about halfway between the circle and the boundary, and yet takes it easily. Farooqi bowls another slower ball, albeit on the perfectly hittable length. It arrived around middle and off, as Paul, after backing away, went lofting down the ground. But his bottom hand came off the bat, and the ball ended up getting skied 153/6
    17.5 Perera comes into action rather quickly! Well taken by him, having been placed at short third. He kept his eyes on the ball, while turning halfway to his right. Perera ended up a few steps behind, and gobbled that up in the end. It was another slower ball from Farooqi, who bowled on the fuller side of a length outside off. Southee looked to clip but got a leading edge, as he seemed to have closed the face of the bat early 155/7
    19.6 another yorker wide of off, and another miss by Milne, who looks to swing. They push for the bye, but Pooran throws it underam at his end to find D'souza well short 176/9
