Kyle Jamieson To Ben Duckett
Bowled full and wide on off, but Duckett can not cash in. This swings away a bit and Ben attempts the cover drive but one hand comes off the bat handle. It goes wide of cover and the batters cross over.

Matt Henry To Ben Duckett
Cutting back in sharply off the surface, on a good length, on middle. Ben hurriedly nurdles it behind square leg and retains the strike with a single.
The sky overhead has darkened even more. Heavy clouds can be seen rapidly rolling in towards the ground. These conditions should further assist the pacers in the meantime.

Keeps it around the top of off pole. Ben taps it off the back foot to the right of the bowler.

Kyle Jamieson To Emilio Gay
Edged, but it does not carry! Kyle brings the ball back into the left-hander, on a good length, on off and middle. Emilio walks across to make use of the angle and clip it away on the leg side with a closed bat face. He is squared up as the ball lands and straightens to graze the outside edge and it lands well in front of first slip.

Kyle Jamieson To Emilio Gay
At the stumps, on a good length. Emilio Gay brings his bat out in front and is solid in defence.
3.4

Kyle Jamieson To Emilio Gay
That kept low. Bowled a bit into the surface, outside off. Emilio shapes up for the cut but the ball does not rise as much as the left-hander expected. Chops it down beside the strip on the off side off an inside edge.
3.3

Kyle Jamieson To Emilio Gay
Pitches it up, on off. Emilio Gay makes the leave.
Three scoring strokes so far and all of them have been boundaries. Two from the bat of the debutant and one from Ben Duckett.

Kyle Jamieson To Emilio Gay
Good comeback! More like it by Jamieson. Kyle hurls it on a good length, outside the off stump. Gay is drawn into the stroke as he pushes a bit away from his body. The ball whistles past the outside edge.

Kyle Jamieson To Emilio Gay
FOUR! Fine shot. Angled into the left-hander by Jamieson, a bit too full, in line with the off stump. Gay leans forward and presents the full face of the bat. Plays the drive with a high elbow past the bowler's left and it races away.

A bit of nip back into the left-hander, on a back of a length, on middle. Ben stays back to keep it out but the ball decks back in and beats him on the inside edge. Duckett wears it high on the thigh pad.

Matt Henry To Ben Duckett
Pushes the length up now, on off. Duckett gets forward to block it off. Ekes out an inside edge onto the front pad.

Matt Henry To Ben Duckett
In and around the off pole, on a nagging length,  Duckett is happy to let it through to the keeper.
It is not the first time that the ball has not carried on the full to the keeper. Does the keeper need to adjust his position and stand a few steps in front of where he is right now? We will find out as the game goes on.

Matt Henry To Ben Duckett
That shot through. Henry drags the length back a bit and this goes across the left-hander. Ben shoulders arms and the ball goes on the bounce to the keeper, Tom Blundell.

Matt Henry To Ben Duckett
FOUR! Easy pickings. Henry goes searching for the swing but ends up delivering a juicy half-volley, on off. Duckett is quick to transfer his weight onto the front foot and cracks the drive to the left of cover for his first boundary.

Matt Henry To Ben Duckett
Serves it full, just outside the off stump. Duckett presses onto the front foot for the drive. The bat turns in his hand and he mistimes it to cover.
