4.5 overs (1 Run) DROPPED! Well, well, well. Zazai gets a life. A length ball, outside off, Zazai swings hard but only gets a top edge this time. Two men run after it - Martin Guptill from mid on and Colin de Grandhomme from mid-wicket. The latter goes for the catch but there is no calling. He gets there first but then puts it down. Guptill is furious with CdG regarding the calling and rightly so! Two runs taken.

4.3 overs (2 Runs) High, high, high, but safe! Lucky escape for Zazai. A length ball outside off, Hazrat swings hard but mishits it massively. The ball swirls in the air and mid-wicket and square leg run back but neither get there! Two runs taken.
