Sreesanth to Maddy,
no run,
nearly starts with a wicket - pitching on a great length, nipping away from the right hander and almost kissing the edge
|
0.2 |
Sreesanth to Maddy,
no run,
movement away again, wider this time, Maddy cuts tamely at it - with no footwork
|
0.3 |
Sreesanth to Maddy,
1 run,
straighter, drops his hands down on it and they run through a single
|
0.4 |
Sreesanth to Solanki,
no run,
straight as you like, forcing the defensive
|
0.5 |
Sreesanth to Solanki,
1 run,
on middle, short enough to be worked into midwicket for a single
|
0.6 |
Sreesanth to Maddy,
1 run,
speared in full, on leg, nibbled out to short cover for a quick strike-stealing single

2.1 |
Sreesanth to Solanki,
no run,
straight, and there was no room to hide and only one thing to do: defend
|
2.2 |
Sreesanth to Solanki,
1 run,
driven out to a straight mid-on for a quick single
|
2.3 |
Sreesanth to Maddy,
FOUR,
outside off, width, and he cuts forcefully through point, puncturing some of the pressure... but only until the next ball
|
2.4 |
Sreesanth to Maddy,
1 run,
slower delivery, low full toss, driven to mid-on, thrown back in - but they were through
|
2.5 |

1 run,
more width, Solanki waits and cuts down to third man
|
2.6 |
Sreesanth to Maddy,

Sreesanth to Solanki,
1 run,
takes some of the pace off it first up, but Solanki is vigilant, driving back out to deep extra cover
|
9.2 |
Sreesanth to Pietersen,
FOUR,
steps back to give himself room to drive strongly through cover
|
9.3 |
Sreesanth to Pietersen,
2 runs,
a huge drive, mid-off scurries round but too late to meet it on the full; the ball plugs and is eventually tidied up
|
9.4 |
Sreesanth to Pietersen,
2 runs,
half-volley outside off and well driven out to long-off, but equally well picked up by Pathan who crashes on to his knees in his efforts
|
9.5 |
Sreesanth to Pietersen,
1 run,
driven out uglily (as uglily as that made-up word) in front of midwicket
|
9.6 |
Sreesanth to Solanki,
1 run,
hit up towards the covers

Sreesanth to Collingwood,
SIX,
sixes are what England need, and Collingwood delivers! That was clean as a whistle, into the midwicket stand
|
15.2 |
Sreesanth to Collingwood,
FOUR,
sweetly timed. Stepped across to clip an off stump full-toss backward of square leg. England are brawling. Sort of
|
15.3 |
Sreesanth to Collingwood,
1 run,
across his stumps again, and thumped into the covers
|
15.4 |
Sreesanth to Shah,
1 wide,
Collingwood makes room, but the wide is still called
|
15.4 |
Sreesanth to Shah,
no run,
extraordinary shot. His first sweep worked, this one ended up as a bit of a muddle. Too much moving around the crease that time
|
15.5 |
Sreesanth to Shah,
FOUR,
he stands still this time, and that's gone straight through deep midwicket. Top shot
|
15.6 |
Sreesanth to Shah,
no run,
Shah's dancing again, and drives down the ground. Sreesanth is miffed and feigns a shy at the stumps as he fields in his followthrough
