Akeal Hosein to Bhurtel, out Caught by Mayers!! Another reverse sweep, a top-edge onto the shoulder and the ball pops up to first slip. He walks away disappointed, reckons that there was no bat / glove before the ball hit his elbow, but we don't have DRS here and he'll need to keep walking. Akeal dragged the length back as Bhurtel changed his stance, end of a fine knock from the opener. Bhurtel c Mayers b Akeal Hosein 39(29) [4s-2 6s-3]

Akeal Hosein to Rohit Paudel, no ball, What happened here? A loud shout for LBW, the on-field umpire kept shaking his head, then all of a sudden he's lifted his finger, much to Paudel's confusion. He's then sent it upstairs to check possibly for a front-foot no-ball, it's very tight, nothing behind the line and it's called as a no-ball. Free-Hit coming for the relieved Paudel - don't think it was a great call either, he lunged across a long way on the sweep and the impact seemed to be outside the line of off-stump. There'll be a concussion check as the ball popped up off the pad and hit the vicer of the helmet - they'll take drinks as the check concludes
