0.2 to BJ Haddin, oh a huge wicket that, just feathered an arm ball through to the keeper as he tried to guide to third man. 0/1

3.1 to MJ Lumb, first ball from Coulter-Nile, brilliant yorker catches him plumb in front. 22/2 15.6 to SPD Smith, oh how unlucky is that! Backs away and inside edges a flick shot into the pads and back onto the stumps, that would have missed leg by a foot. 142/5 18.1 to DJ Thornely, full outside off, chips out to deep cover, straight to the man on the rope. 168/6

19.2 to NL McCullum, backs away and it goes straight through him as he tries to go over cover. 174/7

Brad Hogg	4	0	22	2	5.50	7	1	0	0	0
9.4 to NJ Maddinson, short on leg, bit of extra bounce perhaps but not a great ball, rocks back and pulls straight to deep backward square leg. 78/3 13.6 to MC Henriques, dumb shot there, should have just seen Hogg off. Full outside off, backs away and slices the drive as he tries to go deep, caught at gully. 113/4

4.1 to SE Marsh, full outside off, inside edge onto the stumps, not a great ball really, but it does the job. 32/1 4.2 to MR Marsh, oh what a nut, full on off, swings straight through the gate and takes middle peg, great delivery. 32/2 4.5 to PD Collingwood, he's done it again! Full and swinging back in at leg, too quick and beats the bat, no doubt about that for the umpire. 34/3
