Axar Patel to Will Jacks, FOUR, misfield and four! Surya to blame at extra cover! Flat and wide, Jacks reaches out, slaps it hard but was straight to the Indian captain. It sneaks right through his hands

Axar Patel to Will Jacks, SIX, that's into the top tier from Jacks! Much fuller deliveries have been pulled into the crowd today, and this is actually short from Axar. Sliding in on leg, Jacks rocks back and nails it over square leg

Axar Patel to Jacob Bethell, 1 run, run out chance missed! Bethell cuts straight to Hardik at backward point, he's on the back foot and slow to take off but Jacks is already committed to the single. A rocket throw comes in at the bowler's end and misses. Bethell was well short. He would've been short even if Axar stayed close to the stumps and taken the bails off. But because it was such a powerful throw and bounced just in front, he had to jump back to gather, and then tried flicking it onto the stumps. Missed!

Axar Patel to Will Jacks, no run, darted in flat on middle and leg, good length ball, Jacks hangs back and tucks it to midwicket

Axar Patel to Tom Banton, out Bowled!! Slows it up and gets the reward immediately. So well bowled by Axar who is understandably pumped. Previous delivery was 90kph, this is tossed up at 84kph and sneaks right through as Banton misses the slog-sweep. It drifts in from round the wicket, sneaks through and crashes into leg. Maybe it was a bit too full to be playing that shot anyway. Probably the lift that Axar naturally gets deceiving him in the air. Tom Banton b Axar Patel 17(5) [4s-1 6s-2]

Axar Patel to Tom Banton, SIX, Axar welcomed to the crease with a big six! Lovely use of the feet from Banton, gets close to the pitch and then goes inside-out over extra. Just held his shape nicely and didn't go too hard. Pure timing!
