0.3  R.NAVED to S.WATSON, Pitched in line, hitting middle stump, but is it too high? The umpire doesn't think so, and the batsman has to go!

0.3  S.TAIT to M.HAFEEZ, The batsman lines up for a big slog over cow corner, but gets an inside edge, which scoots past the stumps and the keeper for four runs! The bowler has a wry smile, if the batsman keeps that up, it won't be too long till he's back in the pavillion...  (4) 
0.4  S.TAIT to M.HAFEEZ, The run the first hard, they come for two, the fielder has the ball, they call for the third...will they get there!?! The throw is in, it's wide, the batsman makes the dive...and he's in! Excellent running, and poor fielding. 3 more!  (3) 
0.5  S.TAIT to I.FARHAT, Tucked away to the leg side, they're running hard, but only manage a single.  (1) 
0.6  S.TAIT to M.HAFEEZ, 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)

Code:
0.1  S.BROAD to D.JACOBS, The run the first hard, they come for two, the fielder has the ball, they call for the third...will they get there!?! The throw is in, it's wide, the batsman makes the dive...and he's in! Excellent running, and poor fielding. 3 more!  (3) 
0.2  S.BROAD to J.KALLIS, Swing and a miss. No run.  (0) 
0.3  S.BROAD to J.KALLIS, Very well bowled.  (0) 
0.4  S.BROAD to J.KALLIS, Driven beautifully into the gap. A sprawling effort in the deep keeps it down to three.  (3) 
0.5  S.BROAD to D.JACOBS, BANG! The batsman absolutely nailed that shot! Luckily for the bowler there is a man in the deep, so only two runs.  (2) 
0.6  S.BROAD to D.JACOBS, He's hit that high and hard...the fielder is coming underneath it...will he catch it? NOOOO! He spills the chance! And to add insult to injury, the ball rolls away for four runs. The bowler is fuming!  (4)

3.1  J.ANDERSON to D.JACOBS, Wide full toss, the batsman slashes at it and gets four more through point! Poor bowling.  (4) 
3.2  J.ANDERSON to D.JACOBS, That one deviated sharply of the pitch, the batsman had no chance of playing that. Dot ball.  (0) 
3.3  J.ANDERSON to D.JACOBS, And that's a slower ball gone horribly wrong. Sits up and begs to be smacked for four, which it promptly is.  (4) 
3.4  J.ANDERSON to D.JACOBS, Good shot, they're running hard, the throw comes in, but they've managed a comfortable two.  (2)
