- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR1.6 leading edge and gone, caught at point! it was on the middle stump, he was looking to flick it away like he's been doing so far, on replays it looks like there was some movement away to the off side and the leading edge's taken it straight to the fielder 13/18.2 gone, caught and bowled, soft dismissal this! floated up to the bat this one, he was looking to drive it down the ground but can only lob it back to the bowler and Mishra has got number four 55/46.4 what a catch! sensational from Sammy! Watson's gone! that was shorter again and he goes for a pull yet again, gets it right out of the screws and would have gone for a six any other time, only this time it's a charged up Sammy who jumps high, as high as he can and plucks out a beauty! 50/27.4 what a poor stroke, now why would you do that? it was on the off stump from round the stumps, it was on a length and with the run-rate needed at less than 6.5, he could have done better than tried to slog it away, misses and the off stump and sent flat on the ground 53/39.6 bowled him, this is hara-kiri from the batsmen, was on a length and there was a bit of an inward cut, he looks to play it through the off side and in doing so leaves a lot of gap between the bat and the pad, sneaks through easily and bowled 57/515.5 that's gone, fast, furious and swinging back, easily beats the bat and thuds straight into the pads, hitting it right in front of the stumps and the stand's broken, another turnaround? 102/6Extras4 (w 4)TOTAL135/6 (19.2 Overs, RR: 6.98)Fall of wickets: 1-13 (Rahul Dravid, 1.6 ov), 2-50 (Shane Watson, 6.4 ov), 3-53 (Dishant Yagnik, 7.4 ov), 4-55 (Ajinkya Rahane, 8.2 ov), 5-57 (Stuart Binny, 9.6 ov), 6-102 (Sanju Samson, 15.5 ov)
