- BATSMENRB4s6sSR10.3 short ball outside the off stump. He pulls it to long-on. The catch is taken and his tortured stay in the middle comes to an end 79/41.4 fuller ball outside the off stump. He looks to drive and gets an inside edge onto the stumps 10/16.1 and gets Faf with his first ball. Flatter and an arm-ball as Faf was making room to cut it. He misses and the ball pegs back the off stump. We have to say that Toronto have been let off lightly by the chance given to Faf. Superb bowling this by Salman 50/29.3 outside the off stump. He sweeps it straight into the hands of the fielder in the deep 75/313.4 Green has Neesham's number this time. Flighted delivery on the off stump. Neesham looks to play it across the line and misses. Struck in front of the stumps and he has to make his way back to the pavilion 105/518 full-toss on the leg stump and there's a wicket finally as Shadan mistimes the slog to deep midwicket 170/6Extras17 (lb 2, nb 4, w 11)TOTAL191/6 (19 Overs, RR: 10.05)Fall of wickets: 1-10 (Richie Berrington, 1.4 ov), 2-50 (Faf du Plessis, 6.1 ov), 3-75 (Mohammad Hafeez, 9.3 ov), 4-79 (Navneet Dhaliwal, 10.3 ov), 5-105 (James Neesham, 13.4 ov), 6-170 (Shadab Khan, 17.6 ov)
