9.1 to JW Wells, and there's the first wicket. Wells comes down the track to loft like he did the last over but this time he lofts it straight into the hands of the fielder. This was the shot that Strikers wanted Wells to play. Well planned. 64/1 17.4 to TR Birt, fuller ball on the off stump. Birt lofts it high in the air and Cooper running in from long-on makes the catch look easy. 136/3
Aaron O'Brien	4	0	32	1	8.00	7	1	2	0	0
18.4 to TIF Triffitt, fuller on the middle stump. Triffit slogs it. Richardson comes running in from long-on and gets his hands under the ball and raises it for good measure. Good catch. 149/4

14.1 to PA Jaques, fuller ball outside the off stump. Jaques comes down the track in an attempt to slog it away. He gets a top edge to mid-on and has to go back. A slow innings by Jaques comes to an end. 101/2
