"@John Harry Potter at 7? Is he the keeper? Or the seeker," chuckles Yash. "Oh well..." I assume this is Potter-based humour but it's sadly lost on me
7.6
Stokes to Duminy, 1 leg bye, low full toss, thumps the pads and Stokes likes it... but again outside the line of leg
7.5
Stokes to Duminy, 2 runs, slugged up into the night sky, Duminy advancing down the pitch and getting under it... Willey runs back from mid-on but drops an incredibly difficult one-handed chance coming over his shoulder! Did extremely well just to get there, in fairness
"With the exception of Tahir, everyone has been average. No brilliance and no sacking potential." Where do you get these reasonable opinions, Kyle? I'm not sure this is the forum for you...
7.4
Stokes to du Plessis, 1 run, touch back of a length, 140kph outside off, jabbed down in front of cover point for one
7.3
Stokes to du Plessis, no run, pitched up in the channel, opens the face and crunches a drive to backward point
7.3
Stokes to du Plessis, 1 wide, short ball, swirling down the leg side
7.2
Stokes to Duminy, 1 run, pushed across the batsman, who drops back and dabs a single to third man
7.1
Stokes to du Plessis, 1 run, touch straight and worked off the legs for one
"England fan can pray for rain now. They are ahead of D/L," suggests riad. I'll try and get an official line on that...
