1.6 to DP Hughes, taken at deep third! Back of a length outside off, Hughes looks to carve it away over the off side, gets a big top edge which is neatly taken near the rope. 7/1
15.4 to J Edwards, spooned to midwicket! Speed gun says 124kph, but it looked quicker. Short ball hurrying him as he tries to pull, gets it high on the bat, it floats to midwicket and a simple catch. 103/6
18.1 to J Davies, chopped on! Davies has to go now! 104kph, flying saucer slower ball, dips at a yorker length wide of off, he tries to drive and gets a thick inside edge that is dragged onto the stumps. 121/7
402927.25900
19.1 to BAD Manenti, top edge straight up, Richardson and March nearly collide but Richardson takes it! Short ball on off, he backs away and tries to pull, he gets a top edge straight up towards short third, the two men converge but they avoid colliding and Richardson takes it comfortably. 127/8
19.5 to SA Abbott, another top edge straight up! Short ball banged in, 141kph, at the body, he's cramped as he tries to pull and a top edge floats straight up to Inglis. 131/9
401834.501000
10.2 to JR Philippe, caught and bowled! Superb slower ball! 109kph, slower ball wide of off, he reaches out to drive, completely deceived by the lack of pace, through the shot too soon and drags it back to the bowler off the toe of the bat. Simple catch. 66/3
14.1 to L Shaw, slices high and straight to backward point! Slower offcutter wide of off, Shaw tries to hit against the spin of the off-cut, slices it off the outside edge and it loops to Marsh on the circle at backward point. 94/4
14.3 to MC Henriques, sliced to Marsh again and he takes a good tumbling catch! Another offcutter slower ball wide of off, he skips out but is deceived as he slices a drive in the air and Marsh dives forward and to his right to take an excellent catch. 95/5
301615.33400
5.2 to SPD Smith, huge appeal for lbw, not given! Wow, this looks close. And they've called the review. Back of a length, straight, Smith plays around it. Above the knee roll...and it's three reds on the top of middle and leg. Massive moment in this match. Huge roar from the crowd. 34/2

9.1 to AM Hardie, caught behind! Driving at a length ball and gets an outside edge. Gave himself room, ball perhaps just straightened a touch. 85/2
15.1 to MR Marsh, leading edge flies to deep third! Marsh can't believe it. He wanted to see it home. Back of a length down leg, he tries to flick it over fine leg, gets a leading edge almost off the back of the bat and it flies all the way to Starc at deep third. 118/3
403318.251320
8.2 to FH Allen, what a catch! That's a specky. Probably too late, but what an incredible catch. Full outside off, Allen nails a drive, but Edwards dives one-handed to his right and plucks it out of thin air. 80/1
403117.75900
16.2 to AJ Turner, holes out to mid-on! Great catch by Smith! Shuffles down to a length ball and tries to loft over mid-on but nails it flat and straight to Smith who takes an excellent catch on the circle. 121/4
