00:00up and over the offside from Banton, excellent shot for his boundary for the Rockets.
00:15Now on the sweep and connects does it go all the way one bounce four
00:20back-to-back boundaries for Banton exactly what you've talked about Sanger.
00:23Leg side on this occasion and all the way and there's a brilliant shot from Tom Banton
00:34hard and flat and all the way for six the shot has played to one of your best deliveries
00:39good length ball a square of the wicket into a good solid
00:44brilliant brilliant cricket from Tom Banton he's accessing that offside almost that will
00:5610 balls gone 24 runs scored 69 pace off pace on an edged and a race away for four
01:07Conor Mills can consider himself unlucky with that delivery pace can be exciting and can be dangerous
01:15offside this time alive strength scoring square of the wicket
01:23towards the offside and deep point he'll pick up all about that down the ground strong
01:31but not strong enough simple catch for Kyron Pollard who has hands like buckets
01:37good to watch while it lasted but Banton goes to push it through
01:42Banton was trying to go straight but he dragged it and there is no way Buckingham Pollard is
01:47dropping that the biggest hands ever yeah and the lad with the range finder said that hitting
01:55where mid wicket is now for live that direction as we can see with the slog sweep is the shortest
02:01is the shortest hit today and he does like a slog sweep Adam Lithe
02:12slog sweep straight to the man out well done Nasser Hussain
02:18I can't go out there and hit it further than him can I
02:22I can just tell you what he's going to try and do he did it he's crossed he got out
02:2666
02:30well in truth he dragged it it was a very simple catch in the
02:36yeah hammered away placed beautifully and Chris George it's rapid but can't do anything about
02:41that Root's first boundary yeah he picks up length so well Joe Root from the spinner
02:48oh
02:50Hales likes a bit of pace on the ball decent effort but probably you'd argue could have done better
03:00we're looking to go big down the ground Alex Hales
03:04has completely missed it and Alex Davies behind the stumps doing some good work
03:13that sounded good off the bat that will beat both the fielders as well in the deep on the
03:17offside edge and I think that is an outstanding catch pace off again from Archer leg cutter
03:29Root looking to repeat the dose brilliant work great movement good dive
03:36manages to hold on as well with the follow through on the dive
03:42Joe Root
03:47well it hasn't got all of this at all should be comfortably taken but it hasn't it's been
03:52shelled by Kieran Pollard the man with the biggest hands in world cricket
03:58for a man that has played over 670 shorter format games
04:05takes this in his sleep oh it's come straight in and
04:10oh that's unusual very very unusual for Powell he more relies on power than touch
04:24down the leg side that's bad bowling that was a gimme he had to finish well started badly
04:30finished badly another boundary 105 for four
04:34another slow ball and he's that in the air yes
04:38hacked himself but didn't get the contact now it was a slow ball into the pitch but
04:45it did rush him a little bit he's disappointed he knows that he missed out
04:54that's quicker shorter and hit powerfully by Gregory that's a brilliant shot set up a bit
05:01quicker and put away over the boundary
05:07slow ball hit straight up this time it's James Vence reverse cup
05:13and it's not a Pollard it's safely taken
05:21another slow ball that's been hit in the air is he gonna fall short
05:24yeah is he gonna fall short no it's another drop Andre Fletcher one West Indian to the
05:31another one thing that has improved in cricket over the years is fielding in the deep and
05:37catching in the deep we've seen some remarkable catches over the years we've seen some remarkable
05:42drops in the last two days
05:50and that's gone straight up
05:53and Jordan doesn't miss those
06:02that's well balled running his fingers across the seam Chris Jordan a masterful display of
06:10dead bowling and that's beautifully balled and unfortunate
06:19you can't ask for a better delivery than that angle into the stumps but an inside edge brings
06:24him a boundary yeah cook will take that excellent from Jordan at the end excellent in general from
06:33the bowlers swing and swung away to the vacant fine leg position that anything is that news to
06:46you does that does the invincibles does do does their winning not have any uh any effect to that
06:54because you know sometimes guys might be as you said a bit touchy and you know you don't need
06:59your mistakes rubbed not rubbed in your face but highlighted a lovely punch change of ends for Luke
07:05Wood wow what a shot this is from Al Davies down the wicked allowing his hands to access all of the
07:20ball appreciate it popping into the pod no problem thank you for having me guys cut away again Davies
07:28just finding the boundary and the so the brave are cruising finishes the power play 88 needed from
07:3675 balls now is he nicked that yeah he has it just moved away from him he can't believe what he's done
07:45Alex Davies but he's gonna have to go it was short it was wide and he cannot believe he nicked it the
07:52back foot and he whipped straight away he rehearsed the shot that he felt he should have played which
08:00was a more committed one and weight going into it yeah oh googly Vince might pick the googly
08:08Fletcher definitely hasn't genius Rashid Khan was able to get him straight through the gate
08:17played down the wrong line as we expected Rashid Khan into the attack
08:27inside edge fine leg is reasonably wide i don't think it mattered if it was fine
08:31because it hurried away
08:37now is that glove on that bantam thing so he's diving to his right
08:41and he's running off to his bowler that's a brilliant grab it really is
08:47for the southern brave or this one from Tom Banton again they either stick or they don't and
08:53i think that was just right in the webbing Tom Banton made up good ground as well
09:04nailed absolutely nailed
09:07this is really good from Turner he's found his radar today that is for certain 10 balls 2 for 12
09:22pace one end mystery spin the other excellent from the Rockets the leagues around the world
09:30and James Vince down the tracks gone up deep third many but was it and that's a great catch
09:36he misjudged it he almost fell forward into it and it just stuck in his fingertips
09:46oh gone too far across his stumps and cook has found the base of middle stumps
09:52and the wickets continue to tumble too far from the periphery Rashid Khan in the air leg side
10:02and all the way for six Pollard finally finds the boundary
10:10up long off back to back sixes Pollard on the charge
10:17well this is exactly what Kyra Pollard can do
10:20up again is it over it is you best six six six
10:30well this is incredible
10:37belted leg side has it gone again you bet it's gone again six six six six again
10:50so
11:00what a five
11:03he was going nowhere he has gone out of the park every delivery Rashid Khan
11:13well the crowd are up on their feet now watching something special here from Kyra Pollard
11:20it was bad under the arm as
11:27leg side and it's gone through Lukewood the momentum shift
11:35the crowd involvement it's gone from one level to another
11:39leg side Rodman Powell gives up the chase
11:52all run out chance run out chance gone gone and it's Pollard as well the door has been
