Pooran and Pollard joined forces to stabilize the sinking ship, and in the end, Hosein put the cherry on top by smashing three sixes in the final over. The score looks pretty decent now. Chris Green was phenomenal today, 3-9, and then Sams made a great contribution with his clever variations. Rutherford was out of sorts in the last over. He got Pooran on the very first delivery of the last over but then lost his way, failing to nail his slower balls

Rutherford to Hosein, SIX, It was always going to be a gamble giving him the final. Slightly short and slower around the line off, picks the line so well and once again it's in his hitting arc, puts him to the swords and once again bullies it downtown over long off for half a dozen runs

Rutherford to Hosein, SIX, Oh, timing was divine! Pace-off and shortish at middle, he had an eternity to hit, belted over deep midwicket for a huuuuuuuge six. That Pooran wicket didn't cost much. Hosein has done plenty of damage!

Rutherford to Hosein, SIX, short and wide, not much footwork, strong base and he tonks it over long-off for another six, very useful runs

Rutherford to Hosein, FOUR, good length and width offered, plants his front leg and lashes it down the ground, middled it and beats long-on. Hefty blow

Rutherford to Netravalkar, 1 run, over the wicket, fraction short and gets a hint of inward seam movement off the deck towards middle, gets bat behind and defends through the line
Kasinathan: "Green bowled 18 dot balls. But other bowlers have given away 12 wides till now"

Rutherford to Pooran, OUT, short and wide, hoik down the ground and Green charges in from long-off to take a spectacular diving catch. That is a massive breakthrough, Pooran was eyeing this over, looking to get some big hits
