Nabi to Karthik, out Lbw! Oh no! India have no reviews left, and that one was going down leg-side! Fired in very full, Karthik gets too far across and tries to flick it away, misses it, and is struck on the pads. Massive appeal, and he's been given!

Nabi to Rayudu, out Caught by Najibullah!! High, high...and right down the throat of long-on. Rayudu knows he's thrown a great opportunity away, walks back disappointed whilst shadow-practicing the shot. He skips out of his crease and looks to have controlled the loft against this full delivery, picked it quite nicely too, but gets more elevation than distance. Result?
