13.1 Shakib Al Hasan to Virat Kohli, 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 pavillion... (4)
13.2 Shakib Al Hasan to Virat Kohli, Uppercut over the slip fielders and away for four! Cheeky shot! (4)

14.4 Nathan Lyon to Glenn Maxwell, 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)
