Shami 2-47(9.4 ov)

48.4

Shami to Stanlake, out Bowled!! Simple. Straight, quick, full, nips in off the pitch, beats the edge and sneaks through the tiny bat-pad gap, but not before kissing the inside of the front pad to ricochet onto the stumps. 230 is all it'll be, with 8 wasted balls. Stanlake b Shami 0(2)

48.3

Shami to Stanlake, no run, the just outside off yorker. Stanlake tries a fancy sort of a squeeze, but no, Shami's pace is just too quick to connect

48.2

Shami to Siddle, 1 run, too straight, helped away behind square

48.1

Shami to Siddle, no run, full, middle-lined. Knocked back, carefully

46.6

Shami to Siddle, 1 run, in with the angle, gets a tiny feather on the inside edge as he tries to clip, rolls into mid-wicket

46.5

Shami to Siddle, no run, guides it out to backward point. But they surely aren't going on their suicide-singles with Jadeja there .. also Jadeja hits direct, you know, just in case, for future references

46.4

Shami to Siddle, FOUR, wide off-cutter, cheeky. But Siddle's cheekier, he sinks low, sticks out an opened bat face and ramps it away through the empty cordon

46.3

Shami to Siddle, 2 runs, 137.5kph, punched on the up straight to cover, and they are off on a to-be-suicidal single. But then, Kohli can't nail his direct hit

46.2

Shami to Siddle, no run, bumper. Siddle gets out of it, sitting under

46.1

Shami to Zampa, 1 run, short, slower, Zampa waits on it and slaps it through sweeper

42.6

Shami to J Richardson, 2 runs, width, carved away through sweeper

42.5

Shami to J Richardson, FOUR, bouncer gone wrong. Richardson's been good at dealing with these, gets on top, pulls, controls and bisects deep square leg and fine leg quite well -- Rayudu meanwhile, subbing for someone, runs across, and just as he looks to slide, twists his ankle which gets stuck in the turf -- also his right elbow touches the ropes with the ball in his left palm

42.4

Shami to Handscomb, 1 run, 123.8kph, shorter, I0$ sitting up back of a length. But politely swatted to long-on

42.3

Shami to J Richardson, 1 run, checked defence, in front of backward point, where Jadeja is a little too deep, and the dab is a little too soft, to pinch the single

42.2

Shami to J Richardson, no run, 136.4kph, sharply in on off. A steer converts into a defence

42.1

Shami to J Richardson, no run, 134.2kph, good length, say fifth-stump. Richardson tries to cut, gets tied up, and misses

36.6

Shami to J Richardson, 2 runs, nicely into position to drive this full ball off the front foot through cover

36.5

Shami to J Richardson, no run, fullish and outside off stump, Richardson looks to drive and gets beaten, the batsman was late on the shot there

36.4

Shami to Handscomb, 1 run, lets the ball come to him and dabs it to third man

36.3

Shami to Handscomb, 2 runs, very full and outside off stump, Handscomb flicks it to deep mid-wicket

36.2

Shami to J Richardson, 1 run, steeply rising short ball, Richardson hops and manages to fend to third man, played well in the end

36.1

Shami to Handscomb, 1 run, short delivery, Handscomb moved across and pulled to deep backward square leg, Rayudu fires a direct-hit at the bowler's end but the batsman was home

34.6

Shami to Handscomb, 1 run, short of length delivery on the off stump, Handscomb flicks it to mid-wicket

34.5

Shami to Maxwell, out Caught by Bhuvneshwar!! This top edge isn't going fine, work for Bhuvi to do and he takes a brilliant catch. He had to run in some 10-15 metres, not easy to judge those with the big stands in the background, but Bhuvi had his eyes glued on the ball, dived on the move and took it with both hands, ensured the ball didn't pop out when the elbows hit the ground. Full credit to Shami too. He bowled a short ball, got a top edge, but it went for four. Followed it with an even better short ball that forced Maxwell to sway out. Now he's bowled another bouncer to which Maxwell took his eyes off and just hung his bat a hit. Luckily for India, the edge went towards the fielder. Promising innings comes to an end. Maxwell c Bhuvneshwar b Shami 26(19) [4s-5]

34.5

Shami to Maxwell, wide, lovely short ball, but the umpire doesn't like the height on that, Maxwell pulled out last minute from the pull shot

34.4

Shami to Maxwell, FOUR, top edge and you normally don't see fine leg being placed very fine, almost behind the keeper, short ball, Maxwell tries the pull shot, gets away with the edge

34.3

Shami to Maxwell, no run, very full ball, Maxwell toe-ends the drive back to the bowler

34.2

Shami to Handscomb, 1 run, softly taps this short of length delivery to the right of point and sets off

34.1

Shami to Handscomb, 2 runs, good length delivery outside off stump, Handscomb cuts it to deep backward point

9.6

Shami to Shaun Marsh, no run, fantastic line attacked off-stump, on a back of a length and across Marsh, who shoulders arms on account of the bounce. Probably would have taken off-stump if it was a little fuller. Got it to straighten off the seam a little too

9.5

Shami to Shaun Marsh, no run, fuller length delivery on off-stump, Shaun Marsh gets forward and pushes it towards cover

9.4

7.3

Shami to Khawaja, no run, a skidder from a back of a length, a bit of width, Khawaja is on the frontfoot and slaps it hard to Kohli at point who is quick to release and fires in a throw at the non-striker's end. Oozes intensity

7.1

Shami to Khawaja, 2 runs, just short of a half-volley served up just outside off, Khawaja gets half-forward and weighs in on the drive through the covers for a couple

5.3

Shami to Khawaja, FOUR, short and wide outside off, Khawaja shuffles across early and there's a glint in his eye as he flashes that with the flare of Sir Garfield Sobers - slaps it away I0$ of deep point for four

5.2

Shami to Khawaja, no run, back of a length delivery angling towards off-stump, not short enough to pull, Khawaja goes for the shot, poor selection, as he misses it completely and gets struck on the thigh

5.1

Shami to Khawaja, no run, back of a length delivery angling away from over the wicket to create a good amount of width, Khawaja waits for it and scythes it away towards the man at backward point

3.6

Shami to Khawaja, no run, seams away from a short of length this time, sharply, Khawaja tries poking at it outside off, but he's too late on it - gets beaten on the outside edge once again

3.5

Shami to Khawaja, no run, back of a length delivery closer to off-stump, Khawaja stays on the backfoot and taps it on the head to push it towards cover

3.4

Shami to Khawaja, no run, angles across, some extra bounce, Khawaja tries to slap it away off the backfoot, misses as it bounces over his bat

3.3

Shami to Khawaja, no run, late away-movement from a good length! Pitches and jags away with the angle off the seam initially, maintains the seam position, and beats the tentative poke off the backfoot and swings away to Dhoni's left who doesn't collect cleanly
