19.3 to AC Parore, you wouldn't believe it, really, welcome to the Twilight Zone, Birmingham. 46/6
23.4 to DJ Nash, he's out, a bit of controversy, moved a long distance, umpire Bucknor says he got a little touch, Nash disagrees, and the replay tends to side with Nash on this one, but it matters not. 52/7
23.6 to DL Vettori, a beauty, a yorker, ta ta Vettori, quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack (that's 8 ducks). 52/8
