2nb
Shahzad to Smith, (no ball)

Smith steps across the off side this time, it slips down leg, it's not a wide but it's high, how many high full tosses have we had?

Fletcher to Ervine, OUT

low full toss on the stumps, Ervine slaps it down the ground but finds long-on poor ball but it gets a wicket, Ervine whacking this straight to the fielder who holds the easy catch and throws the ball into the ground in frustration, a lifeline for Notts?

but now a full toss, Vince steps to leg and carves it backward of point, third man up so finds the rope, a career-best T20 score now from Vince
