SECOND INNINGS:
England needed 144 runs from 20.0 overs to win
Code:
0.1  Dwayne Bravo to Alex Hales, That one deviated sharply of the pitch, the batsman had no chance of playing that. Dot ball.  (0)
0.2  Dwayne Bravo to Alex Hales, He tried to go over the top but doesn't connect well. However, it's placed in the gap the ball trickles away for four.  (4)
0.3  Dwayne Bravo to Alex Hales, Scorching bouncer, the batsman clearly didn't expect that and just sways out of the way at the last moment!  (0)
0.4  Dwayne Bravo to Alex Hales, 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)
0.5  Dwayne Bravo to Alex Hales, Down the track and driven through midwicket. There is no fielder in the deep so Long On has to run around to field it, and so in the meanwhile the batsmen get three. Poor bowling but good placement.  (3)
0.6  Dwayne Bravo to Jason Roy, Lofted drive, falls into the gap. The ball gets stuck in the outfield meaning the batsmen get only two.  (2)

1.3  Jerome Taylor to Jason Roy, Very well bowled.  (0)
1.4  Jerome Taylor to Jason Roy, 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)
1.5  Jerome Taylor to Jason Roy, 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)
1.6  Jerome Taylor to Jason Roy, Very well bowled.  (0)

3.2  Jerome Taylor to Alex Hales, 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)
3.3  Jerome Taylor to Joe Root, He shuffles across the stumps, and paddles the ball straight into his legstump! Ouch, that's tough luck, but he has to go!

Top 3 teams from each group will be qualified for Super-Sixes.

25th Match, Pool B: Pakistan v Australia at Mumbai
Pitch: Uneven

26th Match, Pool A: West Indies v Bangladesh at Dharmasala
Pitch: Green

27th Match, Pool B: Zimbabwe v Afghanistan at Nagpur
Pitch: Sticky

28th Match, Pool A: South Africa v Ireland at Bengaluru
Pitch: Flat

29th Match, Pool B: India v New Zealand at Kolkata
Pitch: Hard

30th Match, Pool A: Sri Lanka v England at Chandigarh
Pitch: Flat

Hard - A hard pitch with a lot of bounce on offer, and will suit batsmen who play on the back foot well. The ball is bound to reverse swing in the end.
Uneven - Great pitch for teams batting first, and bowlers who can bowl reverse swingers later in the innings. Ideal to produce matches like this.
Sticky - Offers no swing, spin or seam whatsoever. The worst pitch to play cricket on.
Flat - It's simply a road.
Slow - Slow pitch, the ball comes on to the bat late. But runs can be scored quite easily off the bowlers once set.
Dusty - Great pitch for spinners and all sorts of batsmen.
Green - A heaven for fast bowlers and players who play on the back foot well.

Just take a look at post above.

1.1  Umar Gul to Shane Watson, 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)
