FOUR runs | it's like bowling to a revolving door! Raina moves across his stumps. He knows it is going to be short. He knows it will be outside off.

SIX runs | top-edge and the 145 kph bouncer goes into orbit behind the wicketkeeper. Watson's not the kind to shy away from a fast bowler. No matter how ugly it makes him look.

OUT | taken at mid-off! Rayudu pays for being a little too enthusiastic.
