    9.1 Round the wicket, lobbed up and it's curling away outside off, Eskinazi ebullience comes to an end, he prances down the track and ends up getting a fat outside edge which is held safely Mills at short third; was an entertaining nock. 70/2
    4.1 Slashed straight into the hands of fielder at mid-off; Mills gets the better of him; danger man goes back. Jordan seldom drops them. It was a cracking delivery on a teasing off-stump line, Bairstow stays true to his methods and goes hard, but this time it was slapped straight to the fielder, got a few close ones in his knock 35/1
    18.2 It's already a big total! Flips it on a length into his pads, back of the hand slower one, guided off the thigh to deep backward square to Hosein and there's a mix-up in the middle, tries to sneak another run, Wells tries to scramble back at keeper's end and cannot make his ground, been an excellent knock nevertheless 172/4
    12.2 Slowish yorker tailing in at middle, shovelled straight into the hands of Jordan at mid-off who gobbles it gleefully down his throat; excellent change-up, flummoxed TKC who played a nothing shot in the end, vital breakthrough 96/3
    18.4 Pace-on short ball slanted across middle, he takes him on and lashes him downtown, hits him high on the bat and Jordan, safe as a house anywhere in the field, pouches it calmly at long-on, didn't have to move much, some relief for Brave 173/5

    0.2 Disturbed the furniture! Stands firm deep in his crease, jams the bat down and it's too close to cut, probing line and length on off-stump, ends up making a horrible mess of his stumps, chopped on, and looks crestfallen, worst possible start for Brave 0/1
    3.1 Over the wicket, wrecks his stumps; lapse of concentration; rain getting in his mind? Hard length, curls back into middle and he tried to launch it over midwicket, ball kept a touch low and rattled the stumps, that's a massive wicket because he was getting into his groove and timing the ball exquisitely and needed to carry on, but probably had a drop in focus with the rain situation but, come to think of it, you got to be ready when the bowler is ready 21/2
