George Garton	4	0	23	2	5.75	10	1	0	1	0
19.2 to KW Richardson, getting to be a broken record now. Slower ball again, full and wide, goes to drive down the ground but a thick edge flutters to short third man, diving catch taken by Agar moving to his left at short third man.. 149/8 19.4 to JL Pattinson, you guessed it, another slower ball... sent down on a good length on the body, mistimed pull picks out deep midwicket three yards inside the rope for a simple catch.. 151/9
Daniel Worrall	4	0	26	2	6.50	12	1	2	0	0
17.4 to J Seymour, slower ball full and wide, goes to drive over cover but instead slices a thick edge to short third man on the ring, taken on his haunches at chest height.. 142/4 17.6 to W Sutherland, slower ball full on off stump, Sutherland is through the shot early trying to chip this into mid-on and a leading edge floats up gently to extra cover on the ring. Short charges forward to take a catch at waist height in stride.. 142/5
Rashid Khan	4	0	30	1	7.50	8	2	0	1	0
14.5 to MW Harvey, flights this more on middle and off, goes to sweep and misses, the stumps light up. Stock legbreak this time mixed in as the surprise ball.. 114/3
Peter Siddle	4	0	42	3	10.50	7	2	2	0	0
13.2 to J Fraser-McGurk, leg-stump half-volley flicked straight to Weatherald at deep backward square leg. Both boundary riders for the Power Surge were on the leg side rope and Fraser-McGurk falls into the trap to end a lackluster innings. Catch taken at head height two yards inside the rope.. 92/2 18.3 to J Merlo, slower length ball on middle, charges Siddle but miscues this badly to long-on. Simple catch taken 10 yards inside the rope crouching down to get his eyes in line for a head high catch.. 144/6 18.5 to Mohammad Nabi, slower length ball on off stump, Nabi goes to slice this over cover but instead gets a thick edge to short third man on the ring. Easy catch for Worrall at chest height.. 146/7
Wes Agar	3	0	21	0	7.00	6	0	1	0	0
Matthew Short	1	0	5	1	5.00	3	0	0	0	0
8.5 to SB Harper, splendid one-handed leaping return catch finally breaks the stand! Harper charged down the pitch trying to chip this through the leg side but gets a leading edge that balloons up over Short, who takes a step back before leaping up with his right hand outstretched and is able to clutch on in theatrical fashion.. 65/1

17.4 to Rashid Khan, full on fourth stump, Rashid tries to helicopter whip this over mid-on but instead drives it flat to mid-off on the ring, taken at chest height.. 131/6
James Pattinson	4	0	27	1	6.75	9	2	0	1	0
19.2 to WA Agar, slower ball lands full on fifth stump, Agar backed away for a leg side heave and toes this high over extra cover. Simple catch inside the ring by Nabi.. 145/8
Kane Richardson	4	0	24	1	6.00	9	2	0	0	0
18.4 to DJ Worrall, 126 kph slower length ball on fifth stump, goes to cut this and is through the shot too early to drag on.. 140/7
Zahir Khan	4	0	24	3	6.00	9	1	0	2	0
4.6 to MW Short, quicker ball skids through on fourth stump, Short goes back to punch through cover but gets a thin edge and its well held by the keeper standing up to the stumps.. 45/1 6.2 to J Weatherald, early candidate for catch of the tournament on night three! Zahir flights this full to induce a slog sweep for cow corner. Fraser-McGurk shows he might be better off playing basketball than cricket. He leaps above the rim like he's about to throw down an alley-top and clutches on to a magnificent one-handed catch two yards inside the rope. Incredible hang-time to get that catch. Julius Erving would be proud.. 50/2 10.4 to JW Wells, flighted full on middle and leg, spins in as Wells plays across the line with a flick to midwicket. Big lbw shout upheld. Looked like it was spinning past leg live and the replay indicates something similar. Hmmmm..... 84/3
Mohammad Nabi	2	0	19	0	9.50	1	1	0	0	0
Will Sutherland	2	0	13	2	6.50	4	1	0	1	0
13.1 to HJ Nielsen, slower length ball slammed flat to Harvey at cow corner. A far less theatrical effort than Fraser-McGurk in the same spot earlier. But an important catch nonetheless taken at chest height a yard inside the rope. Five yards either side and its thudding into the LCD ad boards for six.. 96/4 15.2 to GHS Garton, yorker speared in outside leg stump. Garton misses a flick and it caroms off the pads and onto the stumps. This was missing the stumps but Sutherland gets a slice of good fortune with the redirection.. 111/5
