18.3 to BCJ Cutting, ohooww..! Full on off stump, smacks it firmly to long-off, Kane out there holds on to a clever catch, he was almighty close to the rope. 146/5 18.6 to JR Hopes, full and wide yorker, tries to give it a whack but ends up dragging one onto his stumps. 148/6
Adam Zampa	3	0	13	1	4.33	8	0	0	0	0
7.3 to PJ Forrest, length ball on off stump, skids through and he was caught on the crease napping, thuds in front of stumps and an easy decision for the umpire. 60/1
Johan Botha	4	0	25	1	6.25	10	0	1	1	0
13.1 to CA Lynn, Ohooo..! Down the track and goes for the almighty heave, lot of elevation, Pollard runs across near the rope, catches it and flicks it back to Head.. Good work from the duo. 97/4
