- BATSMENRB4s6sSR17.5 fuller ball outside the off stump. Wells slogs it to deep midwicket where Sheridan pulls off an incredible catch, inches from the rope 153/34 Wells looks to have eaten up Cosgrove's share of luck too. Cosgrove is making room to defend the yorker. He makes a lot of room and the intended defense ends up as a steer to the leg stump. Supreme over by Nannes 25/19.4 fuller ball on the middle stump. Birt looks to sweep and misses. He is hit in front of the line of stumps and has to walk back. What's with the batsmen wanting to sweep Pakistan spinners and failing? 83/2Extras14 (lb 7, w 7)TOTAL174/3 (19.5 Overs, RR: 8.77)Fall of wickets: 1-25 (Mark Cosgrove, 3.6 ov), 2-83 (Travis Birt, 9.4 ov), 3-153 (Jonathan Wells, 17.5 ov)
