In the second match, Australia again batted first and scored 270 runs with nine down. DA Warner scored 35 runs off 40 balls and out when it was 11.4 edged, taken! Lovely stuff from Moeen. This is tighter to off stump, Warner looking to push into the offside, takes an outside edge and snaffled at slip 68/1.
AJ Finch scored 106 runs off 114 deliveries, he smashed nine boundaries and a maximum in his innings. His wicket dismissed was like this (40.1 finds mid-on! Once again, England strike back-to-back…went to drive down the ground. think he wanted to go over the top, got no sort of elevation and it’s a simple catch on the edge of the circle 213/5).
