Toby Roland-Jones 37(36)
30.5
Rabada to Roland-Jones, 2 runs, Roland-Jones is not going to duck now. Anything short and he is taking it on, pulled in front of square and there's no one at deep mid-wicket to catch that. The ball plugs in the outfield and hence only a couple
30.4
Rabada to Finn, 1 run, Rabada searches for the yorker and dishes out a full toss, Finn drives down the ground and keeps the scoreboard ticking
29.6
Maharaj to Finn, 2 runs, another local lad and he is also off the mark straightaway, whipped to long leg for a brace
28.4
Rabada to Roland-Jones, no run, back of a length once again from Rabada, Roland-Jones is comfortable sitting on the back foot, knocks it to cover
28.3
Rabada to Roland-Jones, no run, short of length around off, Roland-Jones stands up and fends it down
28.2
Rabada to Roland-Jones, no run, full and angled into off, Roland-Jones wrists the drive to mid-on
28.1
Rabada to Roland-Jones, no run, fullish and outside off, Roland-Jones is sucked into the drive, he's in no position to play the shot and is beaten. Was on the move as well, lucky not to have edged it
27.6
Maharaj to J Ball, no run, quicker and around off, Ball hangs back and blocks it out
27.1
Maharaj to Roland-Jones, no run, the arm-ball from Maharaj and Roland-Jones played down the wrong line. He was beaten on the inside edge and struck in line with leg-stump. The only issue was it might have been sliding down, but as HawkEye suggested, just kissing leg-stump and hence Roland-Jones survives
26.6
Rabada to Roland-Jones, 1 run, aimed for the ribs, Roland-Jones moves across and gets inside the line, nurdled in front of fine leg
26.5
Rabada to Roland-Jones, no run, short delivery and Roland-Jones this time ducks under it
26.4
Rabada to Roland-Jones, no run, bumper on leg-stump, Roland-Jones thought about the pull, but aborted at the last instant. Another tough one for de Kock and he does well to glove it with a jump
26.3
Rabada to Roland-Jones, no run, short of length on off, defended in front of cover
26.2
Rabada to Roland-Jones, no run, back of a length around off, stabbed from the crease to backward point
26.1
Rabada to Roland-Jones, FOUR, top shot! A top-order batsman would be proud of that. Fuller and around off, Roland-Jones presents the straightest of bats on the on-drive and places it to perfection, wide of mid-on. The Lord's crowd enjoyed that
25.6
Maharaj to Bairstow, no run, flatter and on the stumps, goes back and taps it to mid-wicket
23.5
Parnell to Roland-Jones, no run, another solid defence from the debutant
23.4
Parnell to Roland-Jones, no run, on a length and close to off, Roland-Jones pushes it to mid-off
23.3
Parnell to Roland-Jones, no run, good length ball outside off, Roland-Jones drives without timing back to Parnell
23.2
Parnell to Roland-Jones, FOUR, consecutive boundaries. Parnell shortens the length and overcorrects, Roland-Jones stays leg-side of the ball and cuts it behind point, Rabada fails to stop the boundary
23.1
Parnell to Roland-Jones, FOUR, he's striking them cleanly now. Overpitched and deserved the treatment, Roland-Jones bends his back leg and caresses the drive past the diving cover fielder. Sweeper had given up early
22.6
Chris Morris to Roland-Jones, 1 run, short one followed by a very full delivery, Roland-Jones somehow manages an inside edge onto the pad, the ball rolls to the leg-side and Bairstow calls for a single
22.5
Chris Morris to Roland-Jones, SIX, Roland-Jones certainly getting the most out of the short ball ploy. This was just below the chest and he helps it with a pull, more of a top-edge and the big bat these days take it over the boundary rope
22.4
Chris Morris to Roland-Jones, no run, full and slanting down leg, Roland-Jones fails to meet with the flick and is rapped on the pads
22.3
Chris Morris to Roland-Jones, no run, on a length and around off, Roland-Jones drives to the right of Morris, who bends down in time to make a stop
22.2
Chris Morris to Roland-Jones, FOUR, 100 up for England. The crowd applaud in relief as it will not be a shortened game. Short and down leg, Roland-Jones helps it along the way, past leg gully and past fine leg
22.1
Chris Morris to Roland-Jones, no run, the ploy is to bounce Roland-Jones out. Short of length and above the hip, Roland-Jones is early into the flick and the leading edge pops up, lands safely in front of the incoming mid-on fielder
21.6
Parnell to Roland-Jones, 1 run, short of length and around the ribs, Roland-Jones goes on his toes and fends to square leg
21.6
Parnell to Roland-Jones, 5 wides, wayward delivery. The attempted bouncer from Parnell, almost pitched it near his shoelaces and the ball kept climbing, de Kock had no chance even with a leap
21.5
Parnell to Roland-Jones, no run, good length ball on off, Roland-Jones push-drives down the wicket, Parnell makes a good save in his followthrough
21.4
Parnell to Bairstow, 1 run, back of a length on off, Bairstow short-arm jabs the pull to deep mid-wicket
20.5
Chris Morris to Roland-Jones, no run, harmless length delivery outside off, Roland-Jones has nothing to do with it
20.4
Chris Morris to Roland-Jones, no run, nasty short delivery, aimed right at Roland-Jones's throat. He takes his eyes off the ball as he goes for the pull, it brushes his glove and thuds into the helmet grille. JPD checks on him and Roland-Jones responds with a nod of the head
20.3
Chris Morris to Roland-Jones, FOUR, first boundary for Roland-Jones in ODIs. Good length ball just outside off, he drives on the up and mid-off was a bit square, no chance for ABD to hunt that down
20.2
Chris Morris to Roland-Jones, no run, slightly fuller than the previous delivery and Roland-Jones is forward to defend
20.1
