Hinds to Overton, 1 run, tight line, angled in at the right-hander, but Overton opened the face and levels the scores with a nudge to deep third
It's too late for miracles, right? Hinds returns with the contest on the line

Hosein to Livingstone, OUT, hacked straight to wide long-on! Akeal has a fourth, but it's surely too late now... Another ball sticks in the pitch as Livingstone looked for the glory finish. He wellied it, high on the blade, straight down Shepherd's throat... Four balls left for Akeal to complete the steal!

Joseph to Livingstone, SIX, pace on this time, but nailed over midwicket! That sat up outside off, and Livingstone was all too eager to climb through his pull! Hard and high, and very handsome!

Joseph to Livingstone, 2 runs, pace off again, feels the wrong option, raw wheels might be better. Livingstone waits on the back foot, and thumps into space in the covers. Gosh, direct hit would have been out from Hetmyer!

Joseph to Livingstone, FOUR, low full toss, that's a poor ball and Livingstone pings it off his pads! He was looking for the slower-ball yorker, but got that badly wrong. One bounce through backward square

Hosein to Livingstone, 1 run, punched on the up to deep point, three off the over. It's England's to lose still... but it's tighter than they'd envisaged after six overs of this match!

Hosein to Mousley, OUT, on the back foot, slammed at cover! Akeal has another and this time Hetmyer does cling on! Stooping forward as the ball skids low. England are in danger of blowing this now...

Hosein to Livingstone, 1 run, short, but not as short as Livingstone thinks! It's another wild hack across the line, high on the blade, not remotely timed, but Hetmyer - getting peppered in the deep - can't cling onto a diving chance at midwicket
