England vs West Indies, 2nd T20I at London, , Sep 25 2011 - Ball by Ball Commentary

a sliding delivery goes on with the arm as Dernbach steps back to clip to leg ... they push hard for the second run, Swann calling Dernbach across immediately, but the throw is on target and Christian has the bails off in a flash. Dernbach is short, he's out, West Indies win! They had all wandered back to their positions, they didn't think it was that close. A wide smile spready across Sammy's face as the decision flashed up on the big screen, which is wonderful to see

cracked hard to extra cover off the back foot

a typcially ungainly slash into the off side from Dernbach, and they're back for the second as the return throw hits the keeper's pads and rolls to fine leg

beaten on the outside edge! Dernbach leaned tentatively foward but the ball gripped and ripped past his defensive bat

another run out! Swann pushed to cover once more and Borthwick charged out of the blocks. Swann went nowhere, and by the time Borthwick turned back the ball was already being thrown back to Sammy. West Indies close in on a morale-boosting win.

full on off stump, Swann comes forward to drive but hits the field

now he does get the single

beaten once more outside off! Borthwick had a slash but couldn't get a touch on it. Swann wanders down to give him a calming word in the ear

collision! Borthwick nudges into space close to the wicket and Swann wants a single. He's sent back as Sammy sprints after the ball, captain crashing into captain as Swann scurries back to his crease, getting in the way of the shy (a manoeuvre which will be outlawed in a few day's time). Sammy is down and looks to be in a little pain, but both men offer raised palms in apology. No harm done.

beaten outside off! Sammy slings down an offcutter that bounces a little more than expected, the ball rising past Borthwick's poking bat

clipped off the toes to midwicket, and there's a roar of disapproval from Sammy as he dives over the ball without stopping it, giving away a single

the match turns again! Buttler has been run out by a fantastic piece of fielding by the West Indies captain. Borthwick had tried to work another single through mid on, but Sammy charged round even as Buttler wandered out of his crease. He was quickly sent back by Borthwick, but Sammy fired in the throw and rattled the stumps with Buttler inches short. West Indies celebrate!

pushed through mid-off for one

nicely whipped into the leg side, they think about a second run but wisely turn it down

Smith trundles in from round the wicket, and draws a defensive stroke from Borthwick with a straight length delivery

although this has tilted things slightly further in England's favour! Smith floated one up very full and wide of off, and Borthwick just caressed it through cover. Didn't over hit it, just made sure to get his balance and timing right

another slower one - a legcutter by the looks of things - and Buttler hangs back to flick it off his pads

the slower one from Russell, a low, dipping full toss, and it's worked into the leg side

shovelled through cover! Buttler must have very strong arms, he's absolutely hammered this drive. The shot was on as the ball slipped out as a long half-volley, but he really nailed it. And placed it too

much better. Russell hits a length and Buttler nudges to cover
