15.2 to MK Pandey, slower ball magic. Pandey was looking to smash this as well, but is found short because there is absolutely no pace on it. He was looking to find the sightscreen, instead he slices the ball off the bottom of the bat to long-off. 127/3
17.3 to KM Jadhav, full and wide outside off, Jadhav tries to get under it and slice it over the three men square on the off side. Doesn't get enough power behind it because it comes off a bit slowly. Hami M completes a simple catch. 150/4
19.1 to STR Binny, starts off with a short one, Binny swings hard. But he doesn't time it. Big hit is comfortably taken at deep midwicket. Slower balls people, slower balls for the win. 166/5

9.2 to AM Rahane, does him in flight! Excellent bowling from Cremer. Loops it up to draw Rahane onto the front foot and think about hitting against the turn. And then a hint of turn and the slow pace of the deck takes care of the rest. Leading edge loops over to point. 82/2

17.4 to AG Cremer, instant relief for Mohit. Its the fuller, slower ball on off stump. Cremer goes for the slog too early. Misses. Bowler hits. 98/7

9.2 to H Masakadza, hes been sweeping quite well. But with pace off the ball, and him getting under the ball a bit too much, Hami M has guided the ball down the throat of short fine leg. 64/2
9.6 to E Chigumbura, through him! Thats the arm ball from Axar. Skids through before Chigumbura knew what was happening, middle pole out of the ground. 66/3
15.6 to Sikandar Raza, made his intentions a bit too early by running down the track. Axar bowls the flatter ball, cramps Raza, who tries to defend. Offers a gap between bat and pad, the ball hurtles through and knocks leg stump. 90/6
402927.25110210
8.1 to CJ Chibhabha, excellent take from Pandey running to his left from long-on. Chibhabha ran down the track to smash it down the ground. But he gets it off the very bottom of the bat. Too much height, not enough power. Pandey covers a lot of ground, slides as well, keeps his eyes on the prize and wins it. 55/1
10.5 to CK Coventry, pops a simple little catch to short midwicket. Its a short ball, he could have picked his spot. But instead he forgets to keep the flick down and throws it away. 68/4
