Commentary
Shoriful Islam to Will Young, no run, did that carry? Back of a length delivery in the channel, seaming across the batter nicely. Will Young pushes at it with hard hands and gets a thick outside edge to wide slip.
Shoriful Islam to Will Young, no run, back of a length delivery on middle and off, Will Young works it to short mid-wicket
End of Over 0: N/A runs, N/A wkts
Mehidy Hasan Miraz to Nicholls, no run, floated full delivery drifting in on off, Nicholls leans ahead in defence
Mehidy Hasan Miraz to Nicholls, no run, on a back of a length and coming in with the arm, kept out watchfully
Mehidy Hasan Miraz to Nicholls, FOUR, nicely played! Nicholls uses his feet, gets close to the pitch of the ball and hits it over the bowler's head for a one-bounce boundary. Brilliantly done
Mehidy Hasan Miraz to Nicholls, no run, on a back of a length on off, Henry Nicholls camps back and pushes it to mid-off
Mehidy Hasan Miraz to Will Young, 1 run, turning in from a back of a length around off, Will Young camps back and punches it to long-on
Mehidy Hasan Miraz to Will Young, no run, tossed up full delivery around off, turning in, Will Young switches his stance and goes for the sweep but misses and is struck on the pads. It was turning too much and would have spun down leg
End of Over 0: N/A runs, N/A wkts
Shoriful Islam to Nicholls, no run, pitched up outside off, Nicholls leans towards it and dabs it towards point
Shoriful Islam to Nicholls, 2 runs, pitched up delivery around off, Nicholls covers the line and push-drives it nicely through mid-on. The fielder gives it a chase and keeps the batters down to a couple
Shoriful Islam to Will Young, leg byes, 1 run, short of length delivery around leg-stump, Will Young looks to work it across but it deflects off his pads towards fine leg for a leg bye
Will Young, right handed bat, comes to the crease
Shoriful Islam to Nick Kelly, out Bowled!! Knocked him over! Shoriful Islam is cock-a-hoop! Back of a length delivery seaming in on off, perhaps keeps a tad low. Not quite the length to go for the pull shot but Kelly does go for a full-fledged one through mid-wicket. Ends up getting a thick inside edge and the ball crashes into the leg-stump. Kelly's rusty stay at the crease comes to an end. Nick Kelly b Shoriful Islam 7(23) [4s-1]
Shoriful Islam to Nick Kelly, THATS OUT!! Bowled!!
Shoriful Islam to Nick Kelly, FOUR, that will give Kelly some confidence! On a length outside off, Nick Kelly leans towards it and drives it beautifully on the rise. Beats the dive of mid-off to his right and gets the desired result
Shoriful Islam to Nicholls, leg byes, a chirpy appeal for lbw! Back of a length delivery angling in on middle and leg, Nicholls uses his feet and tries to work it across but it deflects off his pads towards third man. It was too high and going down leg as well
The two batters are taking some hydration. A change of gloves for Henry Nicholls as well
Shoriful Islam [2.0-0-2-0] is back into the attack
End of Over 0: N/A runs, N/A wkts
