AUCKLAND ACES INNINGS:
Code:
0.1  Lasith Malinga to Martin Guptill, 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)
0.2  Lasith Malinga to Martin Guptill, , Wide, one run  (1)
0.2  Lasith Malinga to Martin Guptill, Inside edge, and past the stumps. The batsmen take a quick single  (1)
0.3  Lasith Malinga to Colin Munro, , Byes, another 3 run(s)  (3)

0.5  Lasith Malinga to Mahela Jayawardene, 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)

NORTHERN KNIGHTS INNINGS
Code:
0.1  Lasith Malinga to Rohit Sharma, Short ball, cut away for a run.  (1)
0.2  Lasith Malinga to Quinton de Kock, , No Ball. 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)
0.2  Lasith Malinga to Quinton de Kock, Tucked away to the leg side, they're running hard, but only manage a single.Edged and through the vacant third slip region. Just after the skipper had removed a man from that region. Don't you just hate that? One run.  (1)
0.3  Lasith Malinga to Rohit Sharma, Lofted drive, falls into the gap. The ball gets stuck in the outfield meaning the batsmen get only two.  (2)
0.4  Lasith Malinga to Rohit Sharma, 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)

1.2  Wahab Riaz to Rohit Sharma, Full toss, the batsman doesn't cash in and hits it straight to the man in the deep. Only two.  (2)
1.3  Wahab Riaz to Rohit Sharma, Reverse sweep! Cheeky. Only one run though.  (1)
1.4  Wahab Riaz to Quinton de Kock, Slapped away through the offside for a glorious boundary! Lovely shot. The captain's fuming now and removes a man from third slip to cover that region.  (4)

Code:
0.1  Wahab Riaz to Chris Gayle, Drilled away through midwicket for four, that shot had some power behind it!  (4)
0.2  Wahab Riaz to Chris Gayle, Pah, that was a useless shot! I've seen better batters in my fridge! No run.  (0)
0.3  Wahab Riaz to Chris Gayle, 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)
0.4  Wahab Riaz to Michael Papps, Good shot, bad placement. Won't get a run for that.  (0)
0.5  Wahab Riaz to Michael Papps, 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)
0.6  Wahab Riaz to Michael Papps, EDGED AND TAKE...DROPPED! The keeper drops it! A simple chance and he fluffs it! Single.  (1)
