4
18.4: Rasikh Salam to Rishabh Pant, FOUR! Nicely done! Salam drags the length back a bit and tries to tuck the batter up for room. Pant has a heave across the line and picks the gap between deep square leg and deep backward square leg for a boundary.

Pooran gets the front leg out of the way and swings away on the leg side with the angle of the ball. This comes off the bottom half of the bat and Nicholas does not get the desired distance.

Slices it off the outer half to deep backward point, where Krunal Pandya charges across to his left and dives but can't cling on. They cross.

4

It goes flat towards Bethell, who runs in off the ropes and dives forward. The ball drops just under his hands. It clips his fingertips and rolls to his left. Two runs taken. Looks like he has suffered a cut on the fingertips and trudges off to receive medical attention.

1WD
16.5: Josh Hazlewood to Rishabh Pant, Wide! Dug in short, over middle and leg. Rishabh Pant attempts the hook but misses. Too high for the umpire's liking. Wide given for height.

4
16.4: Josh Hazlewood to Rishabh Pant, FOUR! The bat goes one way and the ball the other. Across off, full toss, Rishabh Pant swings with all his might. He loses the grip on the bat and it flies out of his hand behind square leg. The ball gets skewed off the outer half and past backward point for four more.

4
16.3: Josh Hazlewood to Rishabh Pant, FOUR! Gets it away! Low full toss, on the pads, a poor delivery by Hazlewood and it gets the treatment. Pant gets low for the sweep and gets it fine down to deep fine leg for a boundary.

0
16.2: Josh Hazlewood to Rishabh Pant, Into the surface, over middle. Rishabh Pant gives the bowler the charge and has a swipe across the line but the ball skids through to go under the blade.

0
16.1: Josh Hazlewood to Mitchell Marsh, OUT! CAUGHT! Mitchell Marsh holes out! He throws his head back and has a wry smile on his face. Hazlewood goes searching for the yorker but it comes out as a low full toss, outside off. Mitchell reaches out and takes it on the full. He connects well, but neither is there any elevation, nor is it in the gap. Hits it flat and straight down the throat of deep point, where Jacob Bethell takes a reverse cup catch. End of a top knock from 'The Bison.'
