    4.1 and it gets worse. What kind of a shot is that? It's a good length delivery on off, Shaw stands in his crease and looks to hoick the ball over midwicket. No feet movement, no regard for the fielder at long-on. Exuberance, I suppose. But all he can do is splice the ball to long-on. That was not a very pleasing innings. 24/1
    10.3 cleaned him up! Iyer tries to make room and cut, but Ngidi bowls straight on off stump. Iyer misses, Ngidi hits. Crashes into the top of off stump 78/2
    10.6 full outside off, and Pant tries the big heave towards midwicket. Slices it though, and that's gone straight down third man's throat. Lungi gets Pant 81/3
    13.5 but he's gone this time! What a terrible way to get out. Full on leg, and he tried to play the reverse sweep. The quicker ball sneaks under his bat, and crashes into the leg stump. Pays the price for playing a pre-meditated shot 94/4

    14.4 short on middle, and that's been top edged! Bhajji makes no mistake at mid on. Quicker ball, and his inexperience to the pace shows. Not as good a performance as last time for Abhishek. The ball got big on him, and eventually cramped him for space. Looks like it's the time-out as well 97/5

    6.5 flighted on off, and turning away from Watson. He tries to lift it over Mishra, and this time it doesn't have the power to go over long off. Straight down Boult's throat in the deep 46/1
    9.6 good catch by Maxwell! He's hit that well, but he's met the ball too early. Rayudu came charging at the bowler but it was an offcutter. So Rayudu was through the shot a fraction of a second earlier than he would have liked. Therefore, the ball met the bat with its bat face already pointing up. That means the ball will always go higher up than further back. Hangs in the air for a long time. Maxwell takes a good reverse-cupped catch. 70/2
    13.1 he's picked out deep midwicket. And Lamichhane is pumped! That was a googly that Raina picked as soon as it was released because of the line - it was down leg. So Raina cleared his front leg and looked to smash that over midwicket, but he did not get underneath it well enough. All he did was pick out the fielder. 90/3
    17.6 that's the game! A stunning over this from Boult. Not just because he has conceded just five and taken out MS Dhoni, but his execution has been awesome. A low full toss from Boult, on middle and off. Dhoni broings out his bottom hand and whips the ball flat. But not enough distance. Iyer runs in and takes a good catch. 113/5
    14.3 top-edged sweep, down to short fine leg. It's always risky sweeping a wristspinner for this very reason. The googly ALWAYS produces extra bounce because there are more revolutions on the ball. So you'd rather go from bottom to top while sweeping. But Billings tries to keep this down, takes a thick leading edge straight to the fielder. Also, he had to drag the shot from well outside off. 93/4

    19.2 a full delivery outside off, Bravo backs away and chips a lofted drive towards cover. Shankar backtracks and takes it comfortably. 125/6
