Siddle 0-39(10 ov)

34.6

Siddle to Fakhar Zaman, FOUR, good delivery, but it's been hit equally well by Fakhar. Siddle targets the off stump from a fullish length, Fakhar drives it hard through cover

34.5

Siddle to Fakhar Zaman, no run, short ball, left alone

34.4

Siddle to Fakhar Zaman, no run, spraying down the leg-side yet again, Fakhar misses the flick and gets hit on the pad

34.3

Siddle to Fakhar Zaman, no run, short of length delivery just outside off stump, Fakhar defends off the back foot

34.2

Siddle to Fakhar Zaman, no run, good incoming fullish ball attacking the off stump, Fakhar drives with a gap between bat and ball, finds Marsh at point. Siddle would want to bowl more deliveries in the same zone and hope for one to sneak through

34.1

Siddle to Sarfraz, 1 run, Oh Siddle. Leg stump line again, Sarfraz flicks it through backward square leg

32.6

Siddle to Fakhar Zaman, no run, leg stump ball is defended to short mid-wicket

32.5

Siddle to Fakhar Zaman, no run, shortish and outside off stump, Fakhar sways out

32.4

Siddle to Fakhar Zaman, 2 runs, that length won't trouble him. Short and rising just outside off stump, plays that late dab very well, got on top of the bounce this time and steered it to past gully

32.3

Siddle to Fakhar Zaman, no run, and again, length ball on the off stump, Fakhar wanted to drive this through the off-side, the bat turned in his hands and it rolled towards mid-on

32.2

Siddle to Fakhar Zaman, no run, bouncer on the stumps, Fakhar ducks under it

32.1

Siddle to Fakhar Zaman, no run, again that incoming angle from round the wicket almost troubling Fakhar there, manages to drive it down to mid-on

32.1

Siddle to Fakhar Zaman, no ball, Siddle stretches that extra bit and the umpire penalizes him. Just over the line for this length ball that was defended down the pitch

30.6

Siddle to Sarfraz, 3 runs, this is great batting by Sarfraz. Not afraid to play the shots, playing with a positive mindset if the ball is there to be hit. Leans forward to this full ball and drives wide of cover, rushes back and dives to be home for the third run. 17 runs off that over

30.5

Siddle to Sarfraz, 2 runs, full and outside off stump, Ahmed drives it with an angled bat and gets it through cover-point

30.4

Siddle to Sarfraz, FOUR, where's the slip, Tim? This would have gone straight to him. Not great captaincy, the opposition is 98/5 and there's a bit of grass to aid seam movement, yes runs are flowing but you got to attack. Short of a length delivery outside off stump, nips away off the pitch and takes the outside edge as Sarfraz tries to guide and ends up poking at it

30.3

Siddle to Sarfraz, no run, pushed into off-side

30.2

Siddle to Sarfraz, FOUR, poor line from Siddle, not quite getting the radar right post lunch, down the leg-side, tickled fine to the fine leg boundary, back-to-back fours

30.1

Siddle to Sarfraz, FOUR, width on offer outside off stump and Sarfraz uses the pace on the ball, guided away to third man

28.6

Siddle to Fakhar Zaman, no run, this time he gets into a very good position to on-drive the full ball to mid-on

28.5

Siddle to Fakhar Zaman, no run, there's that lazy feet movement and there's a huge gap between bat and pad, that's what Siddle's aiming at. Good length delivery just outside off stump, Fakhar under-edges the cut towards point

28.4

Siddle to Fakhar Zaman, no run, gentle appeal for LBW, Siddle knew it was slipping down the leg-side, angled in on a good length, Fakhar fell over on the flick shot and wore on the front pad

28.3

Siddle to Fakhar Zaman, no run, nice incoming delivery from round the wicket, heading towards off stump, Fakhar defends off the front foot after covering the line

28.2

Siddle to Sarfraz, 1 run, fullish and outside off stump, Sarfraz drives square of the wicket on the off-side

28.1

Siddle to Fakhar Zaman, 1 run, angling into the pads, worked away to deep square leg

11.6

Siddle to Fakhar Zaman, 1 run, length ball angled in from round the wicket, Zaman works it to deep square leg

11.5

Siddle to Azhar Ali, 1 run, still nipping around. Full ball on off, comes in with the seam and takes a thick inside edge down to fine leg

11.4

Siddle to Azhar Ali, no run, back of a length on off, solid in defence

11.3

Siddle to Azhar Ali, FOUR, almost a late decision from Azhar to open the bat-face and run it past gully, or he made it seem that way given how late he angled the bat. Back of a length outside off, he was in control of what he was doing

11.2

Siddle to Azhar Ali, no run, short of length outside off, bunted into the off-side

11.1

Siddle to Azhar Ali, no run, length ball outside off, left alone

9.6

Siddle to Azhar Ali, no run, short of length on off, stands tall and defends

9.5

Siddle to Azhar Ali, no run, full ball on off, defends to mid-off

9.4

Siddle to Azhar Ali, no run, back of a length, nipping in on off and middle, turned to short midwicket

9.3

Siddle to Azhar Ali, no run, back of a length on off, blocked down the pitch

9.2

Siddle to Fakhar Zaman, 1 run, good single. Knocks this ball in front of cover and the calling is on point

9.1

Siddle to Fakhar Zaman, FOUR, white ball, red ball, doesn't matter. Fakhar Zaman is Fakhar Zaman. Length delivery outside off, he gives it a big slash and the outside edge flies over the cordon

7.6

Siddle to Azhar Ali, no run, these are some interesting leaves from Azhar, with the ball nipping in sharply. But maybe he's also trusting the bounce in the pitch from a good length. Teased Siddle right through the over

7.5

Siddle to Azhar Ali, no run, good length ball outside off, almost a foot wide, well left

7.4

Siddle to Azhar Ali, no run, another nip-backer that flies past the top of off stump as Azhar shoulders arms. This is lovely stuff from Siddle, probing away relentlessly, getting some to move off the seam and some others to go straight on

7.3

Siddle to Azhar Ali, no run, short of length outside off, left alone

7.2

Siddle to Azhar Ali, no run, length ball that nips in and is way too close for comfort to the off stump, with Azhar shouldering arms. Collective gasp from the Aussie fielders

7.1

Siddle to Azhar Ali, no run, short of length outside off, left alone

5.6

Siddle to Azhar Ali, no run, length ball coming in with the angle on off, Azhar softens his bottom hand and turns it into the on-side

5.5

Siddle to Azhar Ali, no run, length ball on off, blocked into the off-side

5.4

Siddle to Azhar Ali, no run, full ball on off, Azhar is very watchful as he defends towards mid-off

5.3

Siddle to Azhar Ali, no run, darts in off the seam, takes the inside bat-shoulder and pops up off the thigh. Well short of gully. This is a good start from the Aussie pacers

5.2

Siddle to Azhar Ali, no run, short of length outside off, left alone

5.1

Siddle to Azhar Ali, no run, length ball on off stump, good forward stride from Azhar in defence

3.6

Siddle to Azhar Ali, no run, Australia have gone up for a review. They're looking quite confident, which could very well be misplaced as the impact appeared to be outside off. On top of that, there's a massive inside edge. Bizarre that no one spotted it. These whole last five minutes have been bizarre. Length ball, nips in sharply towards off, and Azhar has done well to get bat on it. His forward defence was tight, hardly much gap between bat and pad as he prodded forward which saves him

3.5

Siddle to Azhar Ali, no run, full ball at the stumps, defends to mid-on

3.4

Siddle to Fakhar Zaman, 1 run, short of length on leg, pulls it down to fine leg

3.3

Siddle to Fakhar Zaman, no run, length ball around off, Zaman prods forward and defends towards mid-off

3.2

Siddle to Fakhar Zaman, no run, back of a length on middle, stands tall and blocks

3.1

Siddle to Fakhar Zaman, no run, length ball on middle, defended to mid-on

1.6

Siddle to Fakhar Zaman, no run, length ball just outside off, defended towards gully

1.5

Siddle to Fakhar Zaman, no run, big toothy grin from Siddle, probably amused with Zaman's approach. Full ball around middle, Zaman is heavy on the bottom hand as he drives to mid-on

1.4

Siddle to Fakhar Zaman, no run, pushes this one across the left-hander with the angle, Zaman lets it go

1.3

Siddle to Fakhar Zaman, no run, length ball around off, defends with a straight bat to mid-off

1.2

Siddle to Fakhar Zaman, no run, almost a half-volley on off, 130kph, jammed off the inside half to mid-on. Big gap between bat and pad from Zaman with both of these drives in this over

1.1

Siddle to Fakhar Zaman, no run, full ball just outside off, 128kph, Zaman drives without much timing to mid-off
