00:00It's always a special atmosphere under the lights, it can really feed off the crowd when it's like this.
00:04With me in the commentary box is Tony Gregg. Let's hear Tony's views on the pitch.
00:07Thanks Jonathan and good evening everyone.
00:09This pitch will provide an even pace and bounce with the ball coming on nicely to the bat
00:13so the batsmen should enjoy themselves out there.
00:15The bowlers will have to make full use of the new ball if they do keep the score down
00:18with line and length being absolutely vital.
00:30I can see the captains are on their way out to the middle for the crucial toss so let's see what happens.
00:46Looks like they're going to have a bowl.
00:48The captain's made his call and now it's up to his team to produce the goods.
00:50There's a capacity crowd here waiting expectantly for play to begin.
01:00The captain really should be attacking from the start of the first innings as early wickets are crucial.
01:12Four all the way.
01:13Oh a cinema shot that was four hours as soon as he had.
01:20Two spinners, a Shane Warne and the fire Moodle Lee Dirk would be my two spinners
01:27and my two fast bowlers, Andy Roberts and Dennis Hick.
01:31That was superb, Chris.
01:32Oh lovely timing.
01:33He played that beautifully.
01:35He had a great power.
01:40That's a sensational shot.
01:45Well I reckon that's demoralizing for the bowler
01:47but he needs to bounce back quickly.
01:50Oh great shot.
02:09Through the gap and that'll go for four.
02:13He picked the length really early there.
02:15Oh great shot.
02:29He picked his one well there.
02:30Once he beats the field on this outfield it...
02:32We hear commentators talk about fast bowlers hunting in pairs
02:38but I'm talking to you really think...
02:39Oh he really made it for that one.
02:42He's got no more than that.
02:50Tremendous timing.
02:53Well if you want to show the key to the perfect way.
02:54To the bowling.
03:06A dolly.
03:07He kept his eyes on the ball very well there.
03:12Let's take a look at that in replay.
03:13Fenty of pressure on the new Batram, though.
03:36Do you think there's more variety in spin bowling now than there ever has been?
03:39Out!
03:40Here's again the Batram fails to follow the ball. Great catch. It's important not to miss anything in the field ball.
03:45Let's take a look at that from another angle.
03:50Absolute concentration required from a new man in.
03:57Beautifully played.
04:00Seeing that ball sail over the fence is the worst sight in cricket for the ball.
04:04He timed that on drive.
04:10That's out!
04:12Let's take a look at that in replay.
04:17Fenty of pressure on the new Batram, though.
04:20Let's take a look at that in replay.
04:29Fenty of pressure on the new Batram, though.
04:30A bit of pressure on the new Batram, though.
04:32What a beautiful stroke.
04:56That brings up his half centre.
04:57He's better well today and he deserves the applause.
04:59Let's have a look at that again.
05:02The ball just runs out into the cupboard.
05:16Good strike rate.
05:17Nine taken from the over.
05:18Terrific shock.
05:37His timing is perfect today.
05:39That was a brutal shock.
05:49That's a confident appeal.
05:51That's out.
05:51But he played really well out there.
05:52He looked confident.
05:53He was holding his feet really well.
05:58I'm sure the new passenger looked to play himself in.
06:00Thin edge.
06:12Lovely shot.
06:13Right out of the middle of it.
06:16The ball looks most uninterested.
06:17Absolutely effortless.
06:19He hardly seemed to hit.
06:20He hit that with great power.
06:21The ball just runs out into the cupboard.
06:36We hear commentators talk about fast bowlers hunting in pairs, but how important do you
06:39really think bowling partnerships are?
06:40Oh, he played that with a loving stroke.
06:42Oh, that's gone a long way.
06:44He's cutting.
07:02He's cutting.
07:07Let's have a look at that from another angle.
07:14Real concentration required for the new batsman here.
07:26No run.
07:29That brings the innings to a close.
07:31He'll be angry with himself for getting out so quickly.
07:38Now it's up to the ball just to see what they can do on this pitch.
07:41Quick bowler to start the first.
07:44I never did.
08:02I don't know.
08:05I don't know.
08:08I don't know.
08:09He's got the edge
08:14Big appeal
08:17Not out
08:32What a superb shot
08:34Well you've got us in fields for shots like that
08:37Brilliant
08:38You watch that onto the back, perfectly
08:40Certainly not hanging around
08:53No run there
09:01Oh that's a superb shot
09:03Oh that's a wonderful shot, he looks in great shape out there
09:06He looks in fine form
09:07That was a confident shot
09:19Oh that's a cracking shot, beautiful turn
09:23Oh lovely timing, he played that beautifully
09:25That was a textbook shot

10:21Top quality shot
10:22Top quality shot
10:25Texcook on drive, four runs
10:27Four runs
10:29He can only be run out off his ball
10:33Great stroke play
10:35Four more
10:37That was a fine shot for four
10:39The crowd really enjoyed that one
10:41The crowd really enjoyed that one
10:59That's one looking for two
11:09No ball
11:21No ball called
11:23That'll be a free hit
11:25That's a really good shot
11:27That was a terrible call
11:29He didn't have a hope
11:31Let's have a look at that again
11:39That's out
11:49That's out
11:50Yet again
11:51Watson fails to follow the ball
11:52And he's out
11:53Great catch
11:54It's important
11:55Not to miss anything in the field at all
11:56Let's take a look at that in replay
12:09Big appeal
12:12Big appeal
12:13Go on
12:14Well that's a really long look back
12:15But you haven't scored many runs
12:18Let's have a look at the action reflow
12:25Fancy of pressure on the new battery then
12:39That's a good shout
12:45Let's see what the third umpire says
12:47Let's take another look at that in replay
12:57They're tough ones for the umpire
12:58We get to see it in slow motion
12:59Or with
13:00There's the signal
13:01He's safe
13:09That's another single there
13:13That's another single there
13:21What a beautiful stroke
13:30Can't afford to give him width
13:39Edge to slip
13:40Once it beats the field one the side field a great as it will
13:55Well he didn't know much about it but it's edged away for four
13:57Daxman coming back for a second
14:18Daxman coming back for a second
14:27Got him
14:33Let's take a look at that from another angle
14:51The new Manning can't afford any lapses in concentration here
14:53Seven runs came from that over
14:58Legs Banatas. Aren't on the
15:03ından
15:04Sound
15:11The other one
15:24Good
15:25Paul is only going to run out. Just one there.
15:55The batsman came back for a second.
16:01They've got back for two. That's good running.
16:07No ball.
16:15The umpire signalling free hit and so the batsman can only be run out off this ball.
16:19So the run rate stands at just over five and over.
16:21Let's have a look at that in Hawkeye.
16:40Just one run. Six runs off the overlap.
16:51No ball. Another no ball. Another free hit.
17:03It's crazy to bowl no balls with this new rule about the free hit.
17:10Brilliant timing.
17:11He really struck that beautifully.
17:14That was a cracking shot. He really got into position beautifully there.
17:17That was a confident shot.
17:18That was a confident shot.
17:32That's out. Good.
17:38Going from another angle.
17:39Going from another angle.
17:49I'm sure the new batsman looked to play himself in.
17:50I'm sure the new batman looked to play himself in.
18:20And he's got away with it.
18:48Well, that could prove costly later in the match.
18:53A better throw that could have been curtains for him.
19:28They're having a shot.
20:12That's coming back for two.
20:14Big appeal.
20:16No sense.
20:26Well, he gets away with it.
20:32Through the end for the batsman, and there's a fielder underneath it.
20:40Let's have a look at that again.
20:56Absolute concentration required from the new man in.
21:12Low run scored.
21:22That's out!
