1st Innings
Code:
The new batsman is Alex Hales
The new batsman is Luke Wright
The new bowler is Pat Cummins

Ball 1 - Pat Cummins to Alex Hales, One Run, short of length delivery on the off stump, Alex Hales knocks it to mid-wicket
Ball 2 - Pat Cummins to Luke Wright, FOUR runs, short and pleading to be bashed!
Ball 3 - Pat Cummins to Luke Wright, One Run, short delivery, pulled away, but on the bounce to the man at long leg
Ball 4 - Pat Cummins to Alex Hales, One Run, Alex Hales fails to clip the ball away and the ball goes off the pads for a single
Ball 5 - Pat Cummins to Luke Wright, One Run, begins with a loopy overcook, Luke Wright drilled through the covers

Pat Cummins continue his spell

Ball 6 - Pat Cummins to Alex Hales, dot, noooo is the shout from Alex Hales after offering a solid back foot defence
Ball 7 - Pat Cummins to Alex Hales, FOUR runs, down the track and lofting. We have seen him hole out to deep mid-on in Tests attempting this shot, but this time he got close to the pitch of the ball and nailed the shot. Now Root has pushed the man back to the long-on boundary
Ball 8 - Pat Cummins to Alex Hales, dot, he smashed the bones out previous ball, now offers a soft-handed defence next ball
Ball 9 - Pat Cummins to Alex Hales, FOUR runs, punches the ball on the up and square of the wicket for a four. That was on a length and Alex Hales drove it through the off-side for a four
Ball 10 - Pat Cummins to Alex Hales, FOUR runs, short and wayward down leg. No chance for keeper and he'll be livid that this will counted as byes. No way a human could have stopped that
