Luke Wright 19(21)
7.5
Swepson to Luke Wright, out Stumped!! Swepson has struck in his first over. Beautiful bowling from the leggie, saw the batsman skip out of his crease and he slows it up holding his length back. Wright was nowhere near the pitch in his attempt to wrist the ball to the leg-side. The ball sneaks through the gap between bat and pad, Peirson does the whipping off the bails job. Luke Wright st Peirson b Swepson 19(21) [4s-2]
7.4
Swepson to Pietersen, 1 run, nurdled round the corner
7.1
Swepson to Luke Wright, no run, top-spinner to start with; Wright steps out, isn't to the pitch and keeps his bat close to pad to negotiate it. In the end, pad comes in as the second line of defence
6.6
Doggett to Pietersen, 2 runs, Pietersen targets the longer boundary on the leg-side and fails to find the meat. Hits the deck hard and keeps it short outside off, Pietersen fetches it from there and manages to pull it over mid-wicket. Cut off near the ropes by deep mid-wicket fielder
6.4
Doggett to Luke Wright, 2 runs, dug in short, Wright rolls his wrists and controls the pull to deep mid-wicket for a brace
6.3
Doggett to Pietersen, 1 run, hurled full on middle, typical KP flick to deep square leg
6.1
Doggett to Pietersen, 1 run, full on middle and leg, whipped round his pads to deep square leg
5.5
Steketee to Pietersen, 1 run, direct-hit could've been interesting. Baz, who is mic'd up says KP would've been a goner if there was a direct-hit and he seems right. KP was in trouble; pushed this off-pace ball to mid-on and set off, the fielder was quick on the ball and rifled a throw, only to miss the stumps by a whisker. Lots of oohs and ahhs from the Heat fielders
4.6
Gannon to Luke Wright, 1 run, skips out, drags it off the inner half behind square
4.5
Gannon to Luke Wright, no run, Wright can't take toll of the free-hit. Good response from Gannon, bangs it short and outside off. Gets too big on Wright as he goes for the pull and misses
4.5
Gannon to Luke Wright, no ball, pressure, pressure. This is what KP can do, after getting smashed for two fours in the over, Gannon seems pretty nervy. Gannon oversteps and a free-hit for Wright next ball. It was on a length outside off, Wright pokes it to point
4.4
Gannon to Pietersen, 1 run, on a length outside off, Pietersen uses the pace and dinks it to third man
2.4
Yasir Shah to Pietersen, 1 run, gets low, reaching head first to the pitch of the ball in another polite wrist towards mid-on
2.2
Yasir Shah to Pietersen, 1 run, off with an easy looking whip down to long-on
1.5
Steketee to Luke Wright, FOUR, latches on. All the width outside off with the sitting up length and Wright goes hard, flashing it to the right of point's dive
1.4
Steketee to Ben Dunk, 1 run, hops up inside the line, wristing it away, through square leg again
1.2
Steketee to Luke Wright, no run, 134kph, cut in half. Oh it's the pressure of dots. Wright loses all shape, looking to feel for the ball with a waft well away from his body. Sharp zip back in to beat the inside edge
1.1
Steketee to Ben Dunk, 1 run, leg-lines. Glanced away round the corner
0.5
Yasir Shah to Luke Wright, no run, 94kph, jumps down, too close for comfort and drills it right back to Shah
0.4
Yasir Shah to Luke Wright, no run, skids it through, Wright tries opening up his defence to run it down, nah, can't
0.3
Yasir Shah to Luke Wright, no run, shortens the length, keeping it tight on the stumps. Behind to defend
0.2
Yasir Shah to Ben Dunk, 1 run, lines himself up, staying up on the bounce, outside-halving it behind square
