Prasidh to Webster, out Caught by Jaiswal!! Taken at gully. The game has turned again. Back of a length delivery, Webster pokes at it in a lame manner. The man at gully grabbed it to his right.

Prasidh to Carey, out Bowled!! Knocks him over with a beauty. The Indian fans find their voice and look at Prasidh go....This partnership was begining to frustrate the visitors and with Bumrah off the field, India badly needed a moment like this. After keeping it short for most part of his spell, Prasidh goes a tad fuller and gets the ball to wobble in off the seam. Carey left huge gap between bat and pad, and that was good enough for the rock to sneak through and smash the top of off. Carey b Prasidh 21(36) [4s-4]

Prasidh bowls it fuller, outside off, 134.4 kph, Smith walks across, but fails to cover the line. The ball kissed the edge and the man at second slip managed to gobble it down easily. A wicket against the run of play for India. Just the tonic they needed. Smith walked across in his typical manner but the fuller one moved enough to hand the edge to the man at second slip.

20.6

18.5
Prasidh to Webster, no run, Webster doesn't look like a debutant. He has played a lot of first class cricket. And that's showing. The ball decked in, on a length, was skiddy. Webster got the bat down and defends it down to mid-off all be it in a hurried manner
