    0.6 unplayable line and length from Anderson, and a fat low nick to second slip! Bending in towards the off stump, straightening off the pitch, kissing a committed defensive edge and Crawley's gone for a duck! 0/1
    2.3 action replay from Anderson but this time it's first slip who completes the catch! Angled in, nipping half-a-bat's width, Cox is trapped on the back foot as the ball scuds into Wells' chest in the cordon, and Jimmy's got two in nine balls! 1/2
    13.1 Lamb joins the slaughter now! Denly had resisted Anderson as best he could, but he's pinned plumb in front by a full-length delivery, nipping back in for good measure, the finger goes straight up! 19/6
    4.6 Make that three for none in three overs! And the ball that got the first two is so good that Anderson just serves it up once more. Straightening at pace on an off-stump line, kissing the edge through to the keeper. Unplayable skills from a man who's hurtling towards 1000 first-class wickets 5/3
    10.3 Jeepers, it's four for three now, and 999 all told! A subtle variation on the usual theme... fuller length, swinging in towards a firmly placed forward defensive, and another skimming edge to second slip! 17/4
    12.6 edged, gone and five for Anderson, 1000 first-class wickets for Anderson! He's completed it from the James Anderson End as well! And he's done it with an unplayable, trademark outswinger! In the channel, as with every ball of this spell, Kuhn is committed by the line, bamboozled by the movement, drawn into the snicked push, and the keeper does the rest! 19/5
    22.3 clobbered straight at long-off! Stevens had the right idea, but this time his execution lets him down. A yahoo through the line, but he can't connect perfectly, and Kent's sorry innings is all but done 51/9
    14.3 gloved down the leg side! Anderson can do no wrong, even when he gets it wrong! Fired past the pads, Milnes jabbed reflexively, as if he couldn't believe his luck, and managed only a feather to the tumbling keeper! 24/7
    16.5 edged and gone and Anderson has seven! Another relentless inswinger, following the edge of the bat even as Podmore attempted to cover the movement, and another skinned edge! This is truly extraordinary, even by the standards of an extraordinary player! 34/8
    26.2 edged, and that will be that! A flat-footed push, a simple nick. Lamb has three, but that's not the story 74/10

    15.6 round the wicket, dangled outside off, and dabbed with an open face to a tumbling second slip. Both the openers are gone now as Kent find some late resolve 67/2
    13.2 outside off, swinging away, a bit of a lazy back-cut and a scuffed edge to first slip. Davies rather gives it away after a solid start 64/1
    16.1 two in two balls! Aggression from Wells as he takes on the short ball, but he's only managed a steepling top-edge to square leg. Big lift for Kent 67/3

    27.6 round the wicket, coming in on the angle, an ambitious slashing cut and that's skidded through the defences. Kent are fighting hard now 93/5
    26.1 Stevens is in on the act now! Back of a length, outside off, a fierce slash to second slip, and a sharp head-high take 89/4
