oh good to see. Sight for sore eyes. Batsmen not worrying about their not-outs and running the extra run off the last ball.

OUT
Holder with the three-fingered salute again. He has Pollard. This wicket is worth 10-15 runs. And he seems to have got really lucky. This is a plum full toss, and not even a slower one. Pollard is early into the shot, looks to drag this to leg, and is still early into it. Bowled

there are two long-offs in place and Pollard has hit this to the wider of the long-offs. Pandey gets under it, and Warner is next to him for the rebound. Pandey has to leap and take this overhead, but it slips through. Just a touch too high perhaps

Pollard walks practically halfway down the pitch, is hit in front of the wicket, but these are so hard to give. They review. I am sure the 3m thing will come into play here. And the Ultra-Edge shows a scratch anyway as the ball passes the bat. So the review is lost

the Pollard power. A lot of batsmen struggle to get power into low full tosses. And I am not convinced this is a low full toss either. He has reached out in front of his body to convert a yorker into one. And the long-on and long-off are pretty straight, but he has still beaten them. The gold standard of death-overs ba...

huge appeal for lbw, not given, and they have reviewed immediately. What good captaincy and bowling here.
