11.1 to Fakhar Zaman, Gifted his wicket away! Tossed up a fuller length ball in the slot, charges down the track and plays with the inside part of the bat, hitting it flat towards straight of long on. Banton comes around from widish long on and completes the catch.. 90/1
17.4 to SM Curran, catching drill for Banton! Length ball on middle-leg, goes for the big heave across the line and mistimes the stroke in the air, did not get enough elevation or power to clear the ropes, Banton comes forward a few yards and gobbles it up.. 136/3

14.5 to T Banton, Banton has holed out! Short pitched ball angling in on the stumps, Banton tries to send it out of the park over the cow corner area, mistimes the big heave and skies it high towards deep midwicket. Nawaz comes forward and holds onto it comfortably.. 101/4
18.1 to R Shepherd, Chips it to deep midwicket! Short pitched ball from around the wicket, pace off delivery and shuffles across to play the cross-bat stroke, swings it away and finds the sweeper fielder at the on-side area. Shepherd gives a disappointing smile and walks back slowly towards the dressing room. Game on!. 143/6
18.4 to KA Pollard, Hello! Double wicket strike by Payne! Short pitched ball outside off, Pollard decides to swing it away over the on-side fences, miscues the swivel pull shot and finds Nawaz near the ropes.. 144/7
18.6 to CR Woakes, Bowled him with the slower ball! A magical over from Payne! Off-cutter ball angling in the stumps, moves away from the wicket and tries to carve it through the covers, gets nowhere near the line of the ball and the bails are flying!. 144/8
403428.50133220
1.6 to JM Bairstow, top edge and the sweeper fielder collects it cleanly! Banged in short pitched ball on the stumps, plays the swivel pull shot half-heartedly and miscues it towards deep backward square leg. Hetmyer did not have to move an inch there to complete the catch.. 14/1
7.1 to Muhammad Waseem, Cleaned him up with a beaut! Hard length ball on the probing channel, hits the deck hard and nips back in just enough to go through the bat-pad of Waseem as he attempts to play off the front foot with intent and knocks the bails off!. 56/2
402315.75132110
17.3 to Tajinder Singh, straight up in the air and Curran holds on to it! Back of a length ball on the stumps, Tajinder throws his bat at it through the line of the ball, skies it high towards mid-on. Curran settles underneath and completes the catch. Some late drama!. 142/5
3032110.6662210
13.5 to N Pooran, Hetty takes a blinder to dismiss Pooran this time! Short of a length ball on the stumps, this one kept a bit low as Pooran tried to drag it down in front of square, clipping it in the air hard and flat towards deep midwicket. Hetmyer sprints across to his left and launches into a magnificent, fully stretched dive, completing the catch cleanly like a hawk securing its prey. Absolutely incredible stuff!. 98/3
