    5.3 full around off. Pushes it towards mid-on and sets off for a quick single. But Campbell is down, clutching his left hamstring. A direct hit would have been gone by a distance. He has survived but is wincing in pain. The physio is out to have a look and it doesn't take long for the support staff to bring out a stretcher 25
    8.6 what a catch! A stunner from the captain. Auguste has given it away. Round the wicket, full outside off, slower ball, Auguste goes for another lofted drive, sends it high into the air where Santner backtracks from mid-off and does brilliant to hold it over his shoulder with a dive. And then does well to keep hold as he hits the ground 38/1
    28.5 a confident appeal for lbw and given. Carty sends it upstairs because unless there's an inside edge, this looks out. It was full outside off from over the wicket and beat the inside edge with sharp turn to hit front pad. The ball-tracking shows it would have just clipped the leg stump. And since it was given out on-field, it stays out 121/4
    16.5 through him, Lennox has done it again! Very similar to the previous. It's a length ball, potentially an arm ball, Hope plays forward and is beaten on the inside edge then his stumps are rattled. Massive wicket. 67/2
    19.5 Santner gets his first! Rutherford attempts a reverse sweep against this full ball on middle and leg. Not a great idea with a fielder at deep point. He gets a top edge and it lands straight into the lap of that fielder 72/3
    30.5 taken in the deep. Full on the stumps and Hetmyer cannot resist playing the slog sweep. It brought him runs earlier, this time it brings his downfall as he ends up hitting it straight to Smith at deep square leg 128/5
    31.2 given lbw as Paul misses the reverse sweep. He goes for the review but more in hope than conviction. It was full around middle and the batter missed it completely. It hit him right in front of middle stump and would have gone on to hit leg 128/6
    31.5 Lennox gets his third and West Indies are on the ropes. A length ball around off that turns the other way. Motie was looking to defend but gets squared up and off stump is pegged back. It brushed the back pad too on its way 129/7
    37.1 and it's all over! Full outside off, lures Pierre into a drive, spins back past the inside edge into the top of middle stump 140/9
    33.4 four for Lennox! A length ball around off. Alzarri goes back and looks to defend but the ball turns away to beat the inside edge and hit off stump 137/8

    11.2 through him, strikes second ball! Nicholls playing back to quite a full delivery, straightens past the outside edge and takes off stump. Lovely bowling 38/1
    21.6 not a great ball but it gives Lawes his third wicket. It was a googly but short and outside off. Young goes for the cut but cannot keep it down. It almost goes parallel to the ground and Pierre takes a catch at extra cover 77/3
    15.1 given lbw! Lawes has his second. Chapman playing forward to a length delivery, slides past the inside edge edge into the back. Chapman has a chat then reviews. No edge. This looks good, and it's three reds - taking off stump 50/2
    26.6 bowled 'im! A quicker one that goes straight and beats the inside edge of Mitchell who was looking to defend it from the back foot 89/4
