3.1 Smart thinking from Somerset, not that smart by Guptill. They saw him drive well in the last over, brought the third man up and sent long-on back. Trego bowled straight, Guptill couldn't stop himself going for the lofted drive, and found out the long-on to perfection. Guptill is stunned, but he should have known better 14/3

1.6 Adams is not pegged in the crease, and flicks across the line of a straight delivery. The umpire's finger shoot sup immediately. Adams doesn't look pleased. Height didn't seem an issue to me. The line is good too. Pitches outside off, hits him in front of middle, would have taken out leg 8/1

2.5 and another left-hand batsman is gone lbw to the round-the-stumps angle. This is short of a length, Quiney pulls across its line, the ball seems to have stayed a touch low. Pitched just outside off, hits him in front of middle and off, and would have taken top of middle 14/2

10.1 from Kartik, short of a length, bunted into the on side, he thinks he has hit it softly enough, and charges back for the second. Arul Suppiah charges in from deep midiwcket, picks up and throws in one motion, goes at the end of Hopkins, who struck the ball and is thus slower, and hits the stumps direct. The full-length dive is not good enough. Good work, Arul 63/4

9.1 and Bates has struck with his first ball back. Trego gives him the charge, makes room, and smashes this cover-drive, smack off the middle of the bat, but straight to Guptill at short extra cover. Lovely catch. Too close for comfort, was Guptill, when batsmen connect with their drives 54/3

19.5 from Bates, low full toss, driven to deep cover, they take risking the new batsman by going for the second here. The throw is not accurate but is quick enough to catch him short. Hildreth has played a good hand, but Somerset needs one more run here 125/6
