38.5 to SB Styris, Bagai does very well to cling on to that one in the end. He lost it in the sun, despite some big Fly-type sunnies allegedly assisting him, as Styris shot that high and higher, straight up and Bagai had to run forward and, at the last minute, dive forward to - like removing a nice apple soufflé from the oven - cling on with the big gloves. 253/3

21.3 to SP Fleming, the breakthrough! Fleming tried to use his feet to get to the pitch and flicked the ball low towards short midwicket, nicely bowled by Sandher and well taken, low down, by Billcliff. 142/1
35.2 to PG Fulton, Nelson strikes! Well, not specifically Nelson itself, but you know what we mean. That one angles across the righthander and would have gone on to hit leg-and-middle. 222/2
1006726.70225120
40.4 to CD McMillan, great catch! McMillan opened his front leg to give himself room and launched it high towards deep midwicket, but he was hitting against the breeze and the ball held up in the air...Samad ran in from the fence and held a superbly judged catch, making sure the ball didn't come out as he slid on the turf. 266/4
42.6 to L Vincent, what a strange dismissal, a loopy offspinner from Davison dips as it arrives at Vincent who tries to work through midwicket - having started to think about the sweep - and got a leading edge which gently lobbed back to Davison. 278/5

9.4 to JM Davison, got him! That's the blow. Mason's face is an absolute picture of delight as Davison's rout comes to an end. A short ball, Davison tried to target the leg side and didn't get the middle of the bat, Mason standing firm to take a solid catch. 76/1

47.4 to U Bhatti, horrible - a big heave looking to send that into Row Z, instead it hit middle-and-off and the batsman's on his way. 245/7
49.1 to KT Sandher, well bowled and Patel has to hold both hands up in appeal to confirm the wicket. Full delivery and Sandher swooshes at that one, misses, and the ball just clips the off stick on the way through to the keeper. 249/8
49.2 to H Osinde, another bowled, that one clattering into the off stick, the No 11 driving with a straight bat and missed that one completely. 249/9
1005735.70286002
20.4 to GEF Barnett, slider, quicker ball, spinning in and it went on with the arm. That was a fine edge cut through to McCullum, who clung on this time after dropping a difficult chance of him earlier, and that's the second wicket. 110/2
34.6 to A Bagai, nicely bowled, again very wide on the crease, varying his pace and spearing in towards the pads...Bagai comes down the track and virtually yorks himself, the ball takes back leg stump. 188/3
38.6 to AA Mulla, gone this time, planting his front foot down the pitch he's struck in line with middle and off, Billy Doctrove raises the finger as that ball does all the right things. 206/5
602113.50211020
37.5 to IS Billcliff, now he's gone, the ball after reaching fifty he goes for a swing and loses his leg stump...there was a much bigger score for the taking but perhaps his concentration just went a fraction and that's all it takes. 201/4
