Shami to D Miller, FOUR, bowled full and wide with no sweeper cover. Miller says "Thank you" and clobbers it over cover - Nice extension of the arms
16.0 -
Zaheer to W Saha, FOUR, make that 16 off the over. Follows Saha as he stepped to leg, Saha goes through with the swat and places it in the gap between long-on and deep mid-wicket
15.5 -
Zaheer to W Saha, FOUR, another dross delivery from Zak. Short and directed down leg, Saha flicks up and over backward square
15.4 -
Zaheer to W Saha, FOUR, the knuckle ball from Zak, but was too short. Saha stays back and swivels to cream the pull square on the leg-side
14.5 -
Mishra to W Saha, FOUR, Nadeem - The culprit this time. Wristed hard and wide of long-on and he makes a meal of it, by making a fumble despite putting in a commendable dive (to his right)
14.2 -
Mishra to W Saha, FOUR, a terrible mix-up between Morris and Brathwaite. No one called. It was a real tough one though. Saha targeted the extra cover boundary and went for the loft after stepping down the pitch. Gets it off the toe-end and Morris from long-off covered good ground to get there. He dived full-length to his left but couldn't reach. Brathwaite from sweeper overruns and fails to slide the ball back
12.3 -
Mishra to W Saha, FOUR, Saha looks in good nick. Greyhounds down the pitch and leans nicely into a drive, raced through extra cover. 50-run stand is up too
11.4 -
Brathwaite to Stoinis, FOUR, that's a one-legged pull. Waltzes down the pitch and still goes through with the pull. It was dug in short, takes the bottom half. The key was placement there, there is a big game between long-on and deep mid-wicket
7.5 -
Shami to W Saha, FOUR, and Saha is off the mark in style. Gets width and the length he wanted, steered late behind backward point and third man ain't getting there
5.3 -
C Morris to Vijay, FOUR, that's a halwa (Google please!) for Murali Vijay. Full, down leg - Dispatched with utter disdain - Picked and flicked behind square
3.2 -
C Morris to Stoinis, FOUR, more tosh from Morris! Down leg again and this time Stoinis gets his timing right. Half-turns and pulls along the ground in the same region
3.1 -
C Morris to Stoinis, leg byes, FOUR, horrid first delivery from Chris Morris, back of a length going down leg. Stoinis fails to get bat on the flick, brushed the pads and raced away to the fine leg fence
2.5 -
S Nadeem to Stoinis, FOUR, dropped it a bit short and Stoinis makes him pay. Makes room slightly and cuts with sublime timing in front of backward point. That's T-I-M-E-D
2.2 -
S Nadeem to Vijay, FOUR, arm-ball sits up on off-stump, Vijay clears his front leg and punches with authority wide of mid-off. Class!
2.0 -
Shami to Vijay, FOUR, on the legs and that's nicely put away by Murali Vijay, twirled his wrists and timed the flick wide of mid-wicket
1.5 -
Shami to Vijay, FOUR, Zak isn't 24 and he ain't chasing that either. Full and inviting a drive, Vijay walks across the stumps and goes hard. Shami half-stops in his followthrough but a poor effort from mid-off meant that's a boundary
19.4 -
C Morris to Axar, SIX, misses the yorker and dishes out a full toss. Axar just swings it through the line, straight down the ground for a maximum
19.0 -
Shami to Axar, SIX, how many times Axar Patel does that? First ball six. Did that against KOL in the last game. Short and at a comfy height, he doesn't need any sighters - Swivels and rockets the pull over the deep backward square fence
16.1 -
Mishra to Maxwell, SIX, if Morris can't get there, no one can! The legbreak outside off, Maxwell thumps it powerfully. Not off the middle, but had enough muscle behind to beat Morris's leap at wide long-off
11.1 -
Brathwaite to Stoinis, SIX, slower half-volley and Stoinis has picked the bones out of it. Waits inside the crease and lifts it high and over the long-on fence. 84 metre six
8.2 -
S Nadeem to Stoinis, SIX, Stoinis goes downtown! Charges down, gets to the pitch of the delivery and wallops a 85-metre six straight down the ground
18.1 -
Shami to W Saha, out Caught by C Morris!! Morris is having a good outing. Clever stuff from Shami - The off-cutter just outside off, Saha wanted to lift it over mid-off. No pace on the delivery and timing won't do for such shots. You need to get some power behind. Tamely chipped in the air towards an onrushing mid-off who accepts it gleefully. W Saha c C Morris b Shami 52(33) [4s-7]
18.0 -
C Morris to Maxwell, out Bowled!! No heroics from Maxi today. He went too far inside the crease in a bid to slog one through the leg-side. Morris missed the yorker. Ends up serving a indipping full toss on middle - Beats Maxi's batswing and pings the middle stump. Maxwell b C Morris 16(11) [6s-1]
13.5 -
Zaheer to Stoinis, out Caught by Samson!! And Stoinis's stint comes to an end. How good is Zaheer Khan by the way? Why did he retire? Only he must know. Deceives Stoinis with a slower ball as he preempts the slog. Down the pitch and off the toe-end. Long-on runs forward and takes it around mid-riff. Well-judged grab that! Stoinis c Samson b Zaheer 52(44) [4s-3 6s-2]
7.0 -
S Nadeem to Amla, out Amla Run Out!! Did PUN drink "run-outs" during the strategic break. Absolute ruckus! Amla cuts this to backward point and set off for a single. Stoinis says "No mate, I ain't coming" (Guess work). Sent back and Zaheer's throw was spot on - Right above the stumps and QDK completes the formalities. Amla run out (Zaheer/de Kock) 1(5)
5.4 -
C Morris to Vijay, out Caught by Brathwaite!! You cannot keep him out of the game - Carlos Brathwaite. Vijay shapes up for a heave over mid-wicket. Bowled fullish around off, Vijay bat-swings and mistimes - Off the toe I reckon. Carlos at mid-wicket moves to his right, keeps his eyes and snaffles with both hands. Tumbles after... Vijay c Brathwaite b C Morris 25(16) [4s-4]
16.2 -
Mishra to Maxwell, 2 runs, high in the air and safe! Maxwell goes for another biggie and ends up slicing it in the air. Zaheer and Samson converge from mid-off and extra cover respectively. No one got there in time
17.1 -
C Morris to W Saha, 2 runs, fifty for Saha! It has been a knock of patience and luck. Gets there with a shimmy and a neat drive through extra cover. Fielder in the deep sends a flat throw but Saha was well in
13.2 -
Zaheer to Stoinis, 1 run, no leg byes given so that means Stoinis gets to his fifty. The off-cutter on leg-stump, Stoinis heaves and misses. Didn't get an inside edge according to me, but the umpire thinks otherwise. Off the pad and rolled to short third man
6.1 -
S Nadeem to Stoinis, 1 run, straighter one on off-stump and Stoinis swipes it to deep square leg. Drama again! Stoinis wants two and Amla doesn't. The throw came in sharp but Nadeem didn't pick the ball. Stoinis wasn't even in the frame
4.3 -
Zaheer to Stoinis, 2 runs, he dabbed this towards third man and wanted a second. Third man sends in a good throw and QDK is quick to dislodge the bails, but Stoinis had dived in to save his wicket
