- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR77.5 Azhar's given himself room to leg and demolished his middle stump! He attempted an inside-out drive but the ball was too full, he played it almost off the face of the bat, through third man but his wicket got in the way! What drama! 377/778.1 Full length, angled into the toes, Mir swings for the hills but he's not got enough on that! Deep midwicket takes the chance and now all bets are off! 378/8Extras25 (b 10, lb 11, nb 4)TOTAL381/8 (79 Overs, RR: 4.82)Did not bat: BJ GibbonFall of wickets: 1-74 (Gareth Roderick, 16.1 ov), 2-167 (Jake Libby, 38.4 ov), 3-253 (Jack Haynes, 56.1 ov), 4-317 (Adam Hose, 66.5 ov), 5-325 (Brett D'Oliveira, 70.2 ov), 6-350 (Matthew Waite, 73.2 ov), 7-377 (Azhar Ali, 77.5 ov), 8-378 (Usama Mir, 78.1 ov)
