9.6
Pandya to Charles, no run, a good length ball outside off, Charles stays back and tries to run it to third man but misses
9.5
Pandya to Simmons, 1 leg bye, jumps back to turns the ball through square leg but misses and gets hit on the thigh
 

Terry: "@Nazir, India had 4 sixes but WI already had 3. They can whack big ones easily"

 
9.4
Pandya to Charles, 1 run, short of a length at the body, Charles plays a short-arm paddle through square leg
9.3
Pandya to Charles, FOUR, banged in short again and now Pandya's length is becoming predictable, Charles stays back and hooks to the backward square leg boundary
9.2
Pandya to Charles, SIX, slashed over short third man and has that carried all the way? I think that ball has bounced just short of the boundary line, centimetres short. Nearly on the half-volley. Charles had backed away from another short ball and slashed hard. The umpire disagrees and calls it a six, fair enough, it was really close.
 

Nazir: "Dot Ball percentage is the key difference. at 8.2 overs WI already has the same number of dot balls (27) as the entire Indian innings" I haven't check that.

 
9.1
Pandya to Charles, no run, the bouncer outside off, Charles had squared up his stance and was too far away from the ball to hit it
 

Sameer: "Boy, has Bumrah worked on his fielding!"
