18.1 K.ROACH to D.VETTORI, Good shot, bad placement. Won't get a run for that. (0)
18.2 K.ROACH to D.VETTORI, 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 K.ROACH to D.VETTORI, He's skied it, too high, there's a fielder coming under it, takes it comfortably!

19.1 F.EDWARDS to D.BRACEWELL, Shortish delivery on the stumps, the batsman backs away and swats it to cover for a single (1)
19.2 F.EDWARDS to S.BOND, Good shot, they're running hard, the throw comes in, but they've managed a comfortable two. (2)
19.3 F.EDWARDS to S.BOND, Neat little late cut, beats the slip and short third man. The batsmen get two. (2)
19.4 F.EDWARDS to S.BOND, And that's going all the way, four runs! (4)
19.5 F.EDWARDS to S.BOND, Tucked away to the leg side, they're running hard, but only manage a single. (1)
19.6 F.EDWARDS to D.BRACEWELL, , No Ball. And the batsman pulls out the sweep shot! Takes a lot of skill to play that, and he has enough to place it for two. (2)
19.6 F.EDWARDS to D.BRACEWELL, Splendid shot for four! (4)
