    2.3 Archer breaks through! Back of a length delivery on middle and leg stump that hurries onto the batter. Lubbe has a swipe across the line but is awfully late on the stroke. The ball pings off the higher part of the bat and lobs towards mid on, where Linde runs in and completes a superb catch diving forward! 9/1
    15.1 cleans him up! Full toss that hones in on the stumps. Buttler walks across his stumps and looks for the cute lap over the keeper. He is just a little late on the stroke, though, and for once, misses his lap stroke. The ball breezes past the bat and smashes into middle stump! 104/4
    6.6 in the air, and taken! Length delivery just outside off stump and Roy continues swinging. This time, too, he is early into the stroke and toe-ends it horribly. The ball goes miles up towards mid on, where Rashid settles himself and completes the catch! 45/2

    9.2 middle stump has been knocked out of the ground! Length delivery on middle and off stump that nips back sharply. Vilas has a waft at it without any foot movement and leaves a massive gap between bat and pad. The ball exploits that space and flattens middle stump! 56/3
    18.3 straight to the fielder! Dug into the track on middle and leg stump. Miller backs away and looks to thump it over deep cover point. He does not quite get the elevation, though, and despite hitting the shorter boundary, he hits it straight down the sweeper's throat 133/5
    19.6 yorker outside off stump. Morgan drills it down to long off, and has no option but to go for the second. Fortuin makes it comfortably at the bowler's end but Morgan is a couple of yards short at the other end. Sums up the Royals' innings today! 142/7
    18.4 two in two for Archer! Superb slower delivery on a full length just outside off stump, and Adams has no clue about this one. He is at least a week early into the stroke and clinks it. The ball lobs tamely towards extra cover, where Rickelton does the rest! 133/6
