1.6 to NM Carter, down the track, a pre-meditated swipe, and a thin nick through to Ramdin! There's the breakthrough, and Carter's spell as a pinch-hitter has not come off in this tournament. Still, after his 11 from 27 balls yesterday, maybe his early removal is a blessing .... 12/1
3.2 to EC Joyce, outside off, a full length dragging Joyce forward, a simple regulation nick, and that's out! And look at Rampaul go! He's hurtling off into the outfield, doing a Monty, as they say in the trade. And T&T are on fire!. 16/2
19.4 to NJ Dexter, that's a great riposte, but he's made a game of it. Full and straight, a perfect yorker from Rampaul and Dexter's off stump goes flying. Still, a cracking innings that has given Middlesex a fighting chance. 116/7
19.5 to SD Udal, he doesn't have to do any running at all! Short and straight, Udal swipes across the line, but finds a little tickle through to Ramdin. One ball to go .... 116/8

7.3 to AJ Strauss, gone! And the pressure makes Strauss crack! Down the pitch, a loose swing, and he doesn't even feign an attempt to regain his ground as Ramdin whips off the bails. Middlesex are in big trouble. 28/3
9.2 to T Henderson, that's horrible. A mighty moo from Henderson, but the ball was too full for such extravagance, and his off stump is plucked from the ground!. 38/4

13.2 to DJ Malan, great catch, and Malan goes! The ball was a bit of a gimme, full and on the pads, but he flicked it straight into the hands of short fine leg! Jaggernauth was the man, and he hardly had time to blink before flinging the ball into the air in jubilation. Middlesex are back in the mire. 56/5
16.4 to EJG Morgan, got him! A great catch from Sherwin Ganga at short fine leg, taking off to his left to intercept a flick over the shoulder as Morgan attempted a sort of switch hit. He had all the time in the world for the shot, to be fair, as it was a pretty rank long-hop, but Stewart's variety earned him that breakthrough. 77/6

0.3 to WKD Perkins, gone! Full length, Perkins drives, and Murtagh snaffles the return chance in his midriff! Now we have a contest. 0/1
18.5 to D Ramdin, Ramdin goes for the glory shot, and he could have paid the price ... his foot is in the air as Scott whips off the bails, and a matchwinning innings has just been brought to an end. A fantastic knock though, and only a miracle can save Middlesex now. 116/5

1.1 to LMP Simmons, that's plumb, full length, in line of middle, and Simmons topples across his stumps as the ball strikes him. No hesitation from umpire Taufel, and suddenly T&T are in trouble. 1/2

10.1 to S Ganga, and he's got a golden arm! First ball, lobbed onto a good length, Sherwin leans back to smoke it out of the ground, and Tim Murtagh on the midwicket boundary doesn't have to move. 46/3
10.5 to D Ganga, two Gangas in the over! That's a massive wicket, good leaping delivery beats Daren's urgent drive, and Scott gathers well to whip off the bails. The decision is referred but he's clearly out. 49/4
