15.4
Christian to Nair, out Caught by Boult!! In the airrr and he's picked out Boult this time. He is very disappointed that he's gifted the wicket away. "These are not baby boundaries," says Pommie Mbangwa on air. Oh Nair, this is not the Chinnaswamy that you are so used to. Anyway, full credit to him for an excellent effort. Another shortish ball from Christian, Nair pulls again, hits it flatter this time and Boult moves to his right before completing the catch and tumbling. Nair c Boult b Christian 50(33) [4s-5 6s-2]

12.3
Mishra to Nair, no run, half shout for LBW, Mishy isn't very keen, knows the googly was probably missing leg stump, Nair played outside the line of the ball as he didn't read the variation. In fact, may have been an inside edge and looked like it was just the normal leggie from Mishy
