Code:
0.1  Kyle Mills to Dhushantha Ranatunga, Full toss, the batsman doesn't cash in and hits it straight to the man in the deep. Only one.  (1) 
0.2  Kyle Mills to Sameera de Zoysa, Drilled away through midwicket for four, that shot had some power behind it!  (4) 
0.3  Kyle Mills to Sameera de Zoysa, Scorching bouncer, the batsman clearly didn't expect that and just sways out of the way at the last moment!  (0) 
0.4  Kyle Mills to Sameera de Zoysa, Wide, no run.  (1) 
0.4  Kyle Mills to Sameera de Zoysa, The batsman sees the juicy half-volley outside off-stump, and decided that it deserved more than a spanking through the covers, and so thrashes it into the stands instead! 6 runs.  (6)

1.3  Duminda Perera to Martin Guptill, Nice yorker! The batsmen gets a thin inside edge and the ball flies past the legstump and the keeper. Fine leg fields to keep it down to two.  (2) 
1.4  Duminda Perera to Martin Guptill, What an audacious shot! Uppercut up and over third man for six! Incredible!  (6) 
1.5  Duminda Perera to Martin Guptill, Lofted drive, falls into the gap. The ball gets stuck in the outfield meaning the batsmen get only two.  (2)

4.1  Saliya Saman to Martin Guptill, The batsman has a wild slog, and gets enough to send the ball to the fence for four! Not the best looking shot, but it certainly was effective.  (4) 
4.2  Saliya Saman to Martin Guptill, Sloppy fielding, the batsmen were content with one but end up getting two.  (2) 
4.3  Saliya Saman to Martin Guptill, Good short ball, the batsman is caught off guard and top edges it high in the air! The keeper is after it...he's runs hard...and the ball lands just after him! He drops a glove and hurls the ball in to keep the batsman to just a single.  (1) 
4.4  Saliya Saman to Andre Adams, He taps the ball away, calls for a quick singe, in comes the throw, and it's a direct hit! Out by miles! Fantastic fielding!

5.1  Duminda Perera to Lou Vincent, And time for the reverse-sweep! Quite a daring and often needless shot if you ask me, but the batsman pulls it off well enough to get two more.  (2) 
5.2  Duminda Perera to Lou Vincent, Tries to work it off his legs, misses, and the fielders go up in appeal! It has to be out, it HAS to be out! NOOOOO! The umpire is unmoved! Gosh that must have been close.  (0) 
5.3  Duminda Perera to Lou Vincent, Ah, great ball. It bounced more than the batsman expected it to, causing him to check his shot at the last moment and lob the ball into the air for an easy catch.

17.6  Claude Henderson to Tendai Machiri, Neat little late cut, beats the slip and short third man. The batsmen get two.  (2)

18.1  Friedel de Wet to Blessing Mahwire, He's slogged that down to cow corner. Long on runs in to field, and the batsmen get two. The captain is clearly not very happy with his fielder's effort there.  (2) 
18.2  Friedel de Wet to Blessing Mahwire, Full, wide, the batsman flails at it and finds the edge! But the ball flies between the keeper and slip, who just stare at each other as the ball runs away for four! Unlucky!  (4) 
18.3  Friedel de Wet to Blessing Mahwire, He taps the ball away, calls for a quick singe, in comes the throw, and it's a direct hit! Out by miles! Fantastic fielding!

19.2  Garnett Kruger to Tendai Machiri, Short ball, cut away for a run.  (1) 
19.3  Garnett Kruger to Hilary Matanga, Tries to late cut that away but misses it, and the ball thuds into the keeper's gloves. No run.  (0) 
19.4  Garnett Kruger to Hilary Matanga, Good ball, he goes for the cut, it's too close to cut, he's inside edged it, and it misses the stumps by a whisker! The keeper tidies up and there is no run. Phew that was close.   (0) 
19.5  Garnett Kruger to Hilary Matanga, No Ball. That wasn't a bad ball, but the batsmen went at it with everything except the kitchen sink, and got enough on it to send it over the fence! 6 more!  (6) 
19.5  Garnett Kruger to Hilary Matanga, Caught!

0.1  Blessing Mahwire to Alviro Petersen, Down the track, and BOOM! Six Runs! Great batting!  (6) 
0.2  Blessing Mahwire to Alviro Petersen, Excellent bowling, catches the batsman off-guard with a vicious bouncer! Unfortunately for the bowler, the batsmen top edges it over the head of the keeper for six! Tough luck son, maybe you'll get him next time.  (6) 
0.3  Blessing Mahwire to Alviro Petersen, Full and on the toes, the batsman just flicks it past the now-vacant short fine leg region for four runs! The captain is fuming, and it's right after he took the fielder out of there!  (4) 
0.4  Blessing Mahwire to Alviro Petersen, Clipped off the legs, the batsmen get two.  (2) 
0.5  Blessing Mahwire to Alviro Petersen, Sloppy fielding, the batsmen were content with one but end up getting two.  (2) 
0.6  Blessing Mahwire to Alviro Petersen, Oooh! Good ball, yorker length delivery on the legstump. The batsman just barely gets his bat down on time, and the non striker urges him through for a quick single.  (1)

1.1  Gary Brent to Alviro Petersen, No Run, excellent bowling.  (0) 
1.2  Gary Brent to Alviro Petersen, He walks across his stumps trying to paddle it away, but misses it. And the keeper's appealing! There was a sound as the ball passed the batsman, and the umpire is unmoved. Replays show it was off the pad. Good call.  (0) 
1.3  Gary Brent to Alviro Petersen, And time for the reverse-sweep! Quite a daring and often needless shot if you ask me, but the batsman pulls it off well enough to get two more.  (2) 
1.4  Gary Brent to Alviro Petersen, The batsman lines up for a big slog over cow corner, but gets an inside edge, which scoots past the stumps and the keeper for four runs! The bowler has a wry smile, if the batsman keeps that up, it won't be too long till he's back in the pavilion...  (4) 
1.5  Gary Brent to Alviro Petersen, He takes a step down the track and turns an attempted yorker into a full-toss, and dispatches it over long-on for six!  (6)
