Overs14.3
Score52 - 3

Y Chahal to R Taylor, OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! Boy. Stop the press. Chahal has taken a caught and bowled dismissal. That too, with the ball dipping onto him. Beautifully flighted outside off, Taylor comes forward to push but cannot keep it down. The ball dips onto the bowler who does well to take it inches above the ground. Fabulous catch. Usually, Chahal struggles to take such stuff but not today.

Score47 - 2

V Shankar to R Taylor, FOUR! That is a superb shot. Simply superb. Tell you why. The ball is short and Taylor unfurls the cut shot. What is so superb about that, you ask? Alright. Let me give you some talking points first. Twice or thrice in a row, Rosco was connecting the cut shot but straight to the fielder. So now, he adjusts. Cuts the ball hard, into the ground close to him so powerfully that it bounces over the leaping point fielder and races to the fence. Small adjustments sometimes provide fruitful results.
