another drive, but still no run
tapping a drive into the off side
Gilchrist's eyes were bigger than his stomach, spooned into the air and down the throat of the mid on

down the wicket, whacked to the mid on, a single is received
tucks it off the pads and behind square
nudges to backward point, Gilchrist sent back, should be an easy run out, but India can't buy a wicket, no one available at the bowler's end
swiveeling corkscrew pull shot behind square leg
and again, goes the big tonk, sealing the Man of the match award
