Shepherd to Narine, no run, close shave! Slower full length delivery angling towards off, Narine has a mighty big swing at it but misses. That almost brushed the off-stump
16.4
Shepherd to Narine, no run, Narine shuffles a long way across his stumps and Shepherd bowls it full and outside the tramline. The batter tries to carve it behind square but misses. It's rightly not wided by the umpire

Shepherd to Holder, 1 run, shortish delivery on off, Holder pulls it to deep mid-wicket
16.2
Shepherd to Holder, no run, full delivery angling in, deflects off Holder's pads and rolls towards short mid-wicket. There's a mix-up as Narine had set off but he returns back home safely
16.1
Shepherd to Holder, no run, a chirpy appeal for caught behind! Skiddy short of length delivery angling down leg, Holder looks to tuck it across but misses. Holder was expecting a wide but the umpire shook his head. Pooran was able to put off the umpire with that appeal

4.5
Shepherd to McMullen, no run, good length delivery shaping in, McMullen keeps it out watchfully
4.4
Shepherd to Alishan Sharafu, byes, 1 run, well bowled! Length delivery that cuts in sharply with extra bounce, Alishan Sharafu made a bit of room but still got cramped for space. Got beaten on the inside edge and the ball flew past the leg-stump
4.3
Shepherd to Alishan Sharafu, no run, Alishan Sharafu uses his feet and moves leg-side in the process. He slaps this one but it's straight to point

4.2
Shepherd to Alishan Sharafu, no run, fullish delivery shaping in on off, driven off the inner half towards wide mid-on
4.1
Shepherd to McMullen, 1 run, that was struck fiercely but just a single results! A shortish delivery on off, McMullen nailed the pull to deep square leg and the fielder had to crouch quickly to stop it

Shepherd to McMullen, no run, length delivery shaping in on middle and leg, McMullen blocks it to the off-side. A wicket and only 3 runs off the over
2.5
Shepherd to Hales, 1 run, good fielding from Pollard! On a back of a length on middle and leg, Hales punches it crisply to mid-on. Pollard moves to his left and dives to save certain runs for his side
2.4
Shepherd to Hales, no run, back of a length delivery, Hales fends it down the track
2.3
Shepherd to McMullen, leg byes, 1 run, a big appeal for lbw turned down! A fuller length delivery shaping towards leg-stump, McMullen plays down the wrong line and is pinged on the pads. It was a good shout but it might have just angled down leg. Ball-tracking shows that hitting was umpire's call so it doesn't make a difference

Shepherd to Phil Salt, out Bowled!! Knocked him over! 134kph skiddy back of a length delivery seaming in on middle and leg, Phil Salt backs away a bit and tries to swipe it across but gets beaten on the inside edge.
