Bresnan to PA Patel,
4 leg byes,
some swing straightaway, appeal for lbw, landed on leg stump and was moving further down, Parthiv tried to clip that fine, missed but it kissed the pads on the way to the fine-leg boundary. Replays show it pitched mostly outside leg and would have clipped leg, only just.

Bresnan to PA Patel,
no run,
at the other end, Parthiv is happier facing Bresnan, who hits a good length on off stump and is defended to cover
|
4.2 |
Bresnan to PA Patel,
no run,
fuller from Bresnan, not much width but Parthiv still found room for a drive to extra cover
|
4.3 |
Bresnan to PA Patel,
no run,
Bell at backward point saves a couple of runs as the left-handed Parthiv hops onto one leg to cut
|
4.4 |
Bresnan to PA Patel,
no run,
great line! It looked like the cross-seamed delivery from Bresnan, and it really got big on Parthiv as he propped half forward at it. Past the outside edge
|
4.5 |
Bresnan to PA Patel,
1 run,
sliced in the air through gully! There's no-one there though, and Parthiv is quite safe as he slashes on the up

Finn to PA Patel,
no run,
great wheels from Finn, another bristling length delivery is kept out by Parthiv. Finn has really come on as a bowler this summer
|
5.2 |
Finn to PA Patel,
no run,
a little fuller, but still offering nothing for the drive as Parthiv stands at the crease to defend to cover
|
5.3 |
Finn to PA Patel,
no run,
Finn continues to nudge 90mph as this one is sent down fuller still, and is driven to mid-off
|
5.4 |
Finn to PA Patel,
no run,
right up to the bat this time, and dug out off the toe end to cover
|
5.5 |
Finn to PA Patel,
no run,
beaten on the outside edge! Parthiv shuffles at the crease but moves neither forward nor back, and there's plenty of daylight between bat and ball
|
5.6 |
Finn to PA Patel,
no run,
and again! Finn zones in on the perfect line to the left-handed Parthiv, who is left poking and prodding outside off

it's in the air ... and safe! Parthiv aimed a wild swipe at a full delivery aimed at middle and off, slicing across it but getting enough on the ball to beat the off-side field

well, Parthiv had an almighty swipe at this outside off, similar to the shots I play in park cricket. Similar result too, as the ball trickled down to third man

Dernbach to PA Patel,
no run,
Parthiv looks for that pick-up pull that he plays so well on occasion, but the length wasn't quite right and he didn't come close to putting this away. In fact, the inside edge bounced just past the stumps!

Dernbach to PA Patel,
1 run,
Parthiv waits in his crease for a slightly slower length delivery - one of Dernbach's many variations no doubt - and guides it to third man
|
14.3 |
Dernbach to PA Patel,
no run,
Parthiv looks to break free! He dances down the track at Dernbach and swings with gusto, but hits only fresh air
|
14.4 |
Dernbach to PA Patel,
no run,
just short of a good length, but Parthiv is content to defend off the back foot
|
14.5 |
Dernbach to PA Patel,
no run,
slower one! This time Parthiv was looking for the pull to midwicket, but he's undone by the lack of pace
|
14.6 |
Dernbach to PA Patel,
1 run,
slow yet again. This time it is picked, Parthiv paddling through square leg

looped down on middle and off, and a bottom-edged cut rolls to cover

Swann to PA Patel,
OUT,
a first-over wicket for Swann! It's been a while since he managed that. Parthiv was trying to take advantage of the attacking field, but got underneath an attempted chip down the ground, getting much more height than distance. Bresnan ran back from mid-on and made no mistake. Odd innings from Parthiv. He switched between cautious defence and all-out attack without much success.
