2.2 to TR Ambrose, gone! Three down! Birmingham, the defending champions, all over the place. He has just punched a full delivery straight back to the bowler. Driving on the up a little, pretty soft. 12/3 18.2 to R Clarke, swing and a miss! Swiping across the line at a length delivery and loses his off stump. A pretty ugly innings from Clarke, but he was in a tough position. 107/5 | ||||||||

1.2 to V Chopra, fantastic delivery! Superb stuff from Willey. A full, swinging delivery which spears into Chopra's boot and traps him right in front...lovely bowling. 5/1 1.3 to WTS Porterfield, and another! What a start for Willey! Full and straight, doesn't really swing, Porterfield just misses his expansive drive and the stumps are splattered. 6/2 3.2 to IR Bell, and another! Would you believe it! Willey is on fire. A back-of-a-length delivery which Bell was aiming to push into the off side and there's a thin nick to the keeper. 14/4 | ||||||||

3.2 to DJ Willey, shorter ball, and he clubs it straight to deep midwicket! A cutter from Hannon-Dalby (are they slower balls if that's all that is bowled?) and Willey can't get the elevation or placement. 27/1 | ||||||||

8.5 to JJ Cobb, plays around a straight ball! Playing for the turn. Aiming into the leg side, the face closes, the ball goes straight on and strikes middle and off. Lovely flight from Patel. 67/2 10.3 to AG Wakely, and another! Oh boy! Lovely from Patel, Wakely also playing for turn but it's the slider - flicked out the front of the hand - from Patel which catches the outside edge and it's nicely snaffled by Ambrose. 80/4 | ||||||||

9.6 to BM Duckett, nicked and gone! Duckett trying to drive on the up, delivery angled across outside off just back of a length, and Rankin jumps for joy. 74/3 13.2 to SP Crook, picks out deep cover! There was some width outside off, Crook went over the off side, connected sweetly, but couldn't have found Bell with better accuracy. 95/5 | ||||||||
