    3.5 looks for the big heave through the line, but it's a pace-off delivery, and Smith gets right underneath that one! A steepler into the covers, and Smith's dangerous knock is done 35/1
    4.3 looks to tumble to the off-side, attempts a flick, straight into Billings' hands! 39/2
    6.4 slower ball, what a stunning catch! In truth, Will Jacks made a meal of it, like Stokes on this ground in the World Cup. He went the wrong way initially, then over-corrected, but stuck up a mitt at mid-on, and plucked it down in his reverse-cupped right hand! It was looped into the arc, a tempter for Pope to launch down the ground. He got a good piece of it, but not quite a good enough piece! 49/3
    11.5 goes for the slog-sweep, massive top-edge! Billings calls early and takes the tumbling catch running out to the square leg umpire. Pressure, pressure, pressure... Williamson tried to break the shackles and paid the price! 74/4
    13.4 hard and flat, straight to cow corner! That was a seriously muscular slog-sweep, but Ferreira launched himself into the ball as it came at him, and absorbed it into his tumble. Brilliant fielding, and Spirit slide further 88/5
    19.2 steps into the length, gets too far underneath it! Overton was targetting the straight boundary, but TC's lack of pace did for him... Cox picked it up in the end, and pouched it safely as he trotted in from long-off 142/6
    19.4 tries to reach the wide line, can't connect, but both batters end up at the same end, as Curran whips off the bails. Dawson gets himself on strike, thinking he was running regardless for the last ball of the innings ... or not, as his team-mate failed to realise what he was up to... well this is a tedious delay. Endless replays to decide that Higgins did actually leave his crease, so he is the one to go 148/7

    8.1 blazed on the pull, Pope clings on at cow corner! Solid contact, hard and flat, similar to the Ferreira catch earlier. Pope does very well to intercept a fast-travelling ball, and Jacks' knock is done. Dawson gets him for the fourth time 69/2
    1.1 full length into the pads, Muyeye winds into a lusty pull and picks out backward square! A first-baller, and straight down the fielder's throat! 5/1

    13.3 goes for the ramp, bowled him! Cox anticipated the fuller length, but couldn't line him up in time! Through his legs as the bat flings across the line, Overton is pumped up! 127/4
    12.3 chases the wide one this time! He probably didn't need to do that, but Curran backed his eye, but Dawson's angle took the ball out of his arc. Gleeson tumbles under the leading edge and holds on at point 114/3
