    2.1 What a way to start the season..Davis strikes first ball and that's the big wicket of McCullum. He bowls that from round the wicket and kept it shortish and flat on the middle stump. McCullum stays in the crease and anticipates this ball to turn in, plays the wrong line and gets an outside edge which settles into the hands of Sammy. This ball held the deck touch and grips around. 14/1
    9 Great bowling from Nitish, this lad has some serious guts..He once again tosses it up and wide across of Amla and invites him. Amla accepts as he goes for the kill once again by backing away as he tries to go for another inside out shot over cover. This one skews of the toe end which went over point region and ends up into the hands of Mayers 58/3
    5.3 Munro goes, Sammy picks another catch..Short ball from Watson around the middle stump, this one climbs too much on him as he goes for the pull, top edges and skies towards the square leg region. Sammy ran across to his left and dives full length and holds a good catch. 38/2

    17.2 and the plan worked with the shortish balls, they picked Akmal though..nevertheless a wicket! Akmal was way early for that pull and was beaten comprehensively by the lack of pace and also this one climbs touch extra. He goes with the shot and gets a top edge before ending himself in a very awkward position, Watson ran across the pitch and holds the dolly. 124/4
    18.1 good catch by Miller..effort ball from Morkel, hits the deck hard and rises from a back of a length. Bravo backs away touch and tires to punch that uppishly over the cover region..This ball hits the bat quite high and skies to the left of extra cover. Miller back tracks and plucks it out nicely.. 131/5
    19.4 another full toss and this produces a wicket..This was on the middle stump as Cooper goes for a big heave over the midwicket region, much height rather than the distance as Miller once again runs back a few yards and takes it near the ropes 149/6

    11.4 Oh Charles.! It was slower, wider on of stump. Charles play the reverse sweep and it takes the toe end of the bat. McCullum premeditates the shot and moves to his right, jiggles and snaffles it on the second attempt. Oh wait.. they are checking for no-ball, nothing behind the line I reckon but the benefit of doubt goes to the bowler. He has been adjudged out. 93/2
    5.5 and Watson walks back..big big wicket! This was slowish full ball on the leg stump, he rolls his wrist onto it and it came quite slower than the anticipation. Watson tries to work it on the leg side, ends up with a leading edge down to mid-off where Narine holds it. 47/1
    13.1 this game is not over yet. Two in two so far for the magician. Length delivery on off, tad quicker too. Andre rocks back for the cut and edges one behind 104/3
    18.1 he has knocked him over. Slower length ball on middle and off, Hussey goes for the heave across the line, misses the ball and it just kisses the off bail. He was completely beaten there. 147/4
