    16.5 into the pitch, hoicked to deep midwicket! Harrison, Linde's sub, makes no mistakes as Jacks' splendid knock is undone. Another slower ball, and the lack of pace meant Jacks had to get his timing spot-on, and didn't! 148/3
    3.1 short ball, long-hop really, snicked to the keeper! Muyeye couldn't believe his luck as the ball left the hand, but some extra bounce outside off screwed up his alignment. Ben Cox gathers! What an introduction! 31/1
    13.5 faster, flatter, wider, finds the edge! A cunning follow-up from Rehan, Cox climbed into a massive hack through the off side, but his feet weren't close enough to the action, and his namesake gathers a thin but palpable snick, right off the toe. Good take too, from a solid base 118/2
    18.5 full again, another massive wipe off the toes, Banton plucks the chance inside the rope! Super take, turning his body inside-out, and keeping his feet in play as the ball sailed past him into his waiting hands 164/4

    19.3 yorker again, inswinging once more, Curran attempts a repeat single... Cox swoops and this time he reaches the stumps while the bat is in the air! 165/5

    7.2 aims down-town, picks out long-off! Sowter is winning this in the space of seven balls! Banton had no choice, he had to get something started against this legspin onslaught, but Sowter's tidy lines offered nothing to work with... Invincibles are rampant! 37/3
    6.2 goes for the launch down the ground, doesn't get the power! Root's scratchy knock is finished. He knew he had to get something going, but he picked out Jacks on the boundary's edge at long-on, who reverse-cupped the ball superbly, reaching back over the rope. Root examines the toe of his bat as he leaves... as well he might 36/1
    6.4 skids through, pings the middle stump! Rehan gave himself room for the cut, but Sowter's skiddy line did him all ends up! Rockets are deep in the doo-doo now! 36/2
    11.3 slower, wider, Billings is sure he's got the stumping! Zampa hung it outside the arc, Willey's back foot drags as the ball beats his edge, and the skipper's fast hands did the needful! Had to be quick, as that toe was down in an instant 71/4
    19.5 nails the pad, up goes the finger! What a fitting way to seal the three-peat! It looked leg-sided, albeit a very full length, but I doubt anyone will bother reviewing. This one has been all over for half an hour! 142/8
    13.2 short ball, hoisted to Sowter at deep square leg! Pace off from Curran, Linde tried to impart some welly, but couldn't get the elevation. And ecstacy from the fielder as he judges his catch well, keeping his feet inside the line 84/5
    17.2 steps across to off, hacked to the leg-side, Mahmood gathers, turns, pings down his stumps! Whiteley had to run, at least he's got Stoinis on strike. But the end is nigh once more 122/6
    19.1 blatted off the full length, straight at a very, very straight mid-on. Hain came for the single, got sent back... gone by a mile 136/7
