Zahoor Khan to Amla, FOUR, deft touch from Amla! Slower and shorter, Amla waits and then opts for the ramp shot. Nicely executed, bisecting short third man and the keeper perfectly

Migael Pretorius to Whiteley, out Caught by Watson!! Miscues this badly into the sky and Watson at extra cover treks back to settle under the skier nicely. Needed an experienced man to get under this and the Australian warhorse is right up there for that. Clever from Pretorius as he went for the slower ball into the surface, kept it wider of Whiteley who looked to loft it but could only slice this straight up. Whiteley c Watson b Migael Pretorius 13(7) [4s-1 6s-1]

Migael Pretorius to Whiteley, FOUR, just the kind of final assault that the Tuskers are looking for. Slower bouncer, Whiteley sits back and slogs it through mid-wicket. Even someone like Pollard can't get across from long-on, which tells you how hard it was hit

Migael Pretorius to Whiteley, SIX, smoked! Whiteley can hit them really far and long, and he shows a sample of that here. Length ball from Pretorius, the southpaw just clears his front leg and clobbers this over deep mid-wicket

Migael Pretorius to Whiteley, leg byes, FOUR, erratic stuff! Sprays it down the leg-side and even though Whiteley can't bat on this, ensures that the pads deflect it down to the fine leg fence. The fielder was in the ring at 45

Fawad Ahmed to Amla, FOUR, reverse sweep from Amla! He's bringing out all those shots he wouldn't have dared to think of in international cricket. Premeditates, gets the length he wants and gets it very fine to the third man fence

Fawad Ahmed to Charles, out Caught by Pollard!! Holes out to long-on! Saw the flight on offer and Charles just looked to go downtown. Couldn't get the desired leverage on the stroke and it's Pollard near the fence, so no way the catch is going to be shelled. Not even if he is having a bit of jet lag. Super knock from Charles nevertheless. Charles c Pollard b Fawad Ahmed 35(18) [4s-5 6s-1]

Fawad Ahmed to Amla, FOUR, delightful shot! Flighted leg break from Fawad and Amla makes room to loft this over extra cover inside out. Well wide of long-off. Class shot!

Pollard to Charles, SIX, smacked! Fuller one this time and Charles clouts it straight down the ground over long-off. A cold-shouldered welcome by Charles to his country's white-ball captain

Cutting to Amla, FOUR, finds the gap! Unusual to see an agricultural slog from Amla but such is the format. Sees a length ball and looks to go over mid-wicket but ends up getting it off the inside half. Still manages to bisect fine leg and deep square leg perfectly

Zahoor Khan to Charles, FOUR, ramped over short third man! Zahoor starts with a shorter length ball that allows Charles to capitalize on the room. Opens the bat face at the last moment to choose his spot

Zahir Khan to Lewis, out Bowled!! Castled! Revenge for young Zahir after copping some serious stick from both the West Indians. Opts for the wrong 'un and it kept a fraction lower than Lewis anticipated. He sits back for a cross-batted swipe but misses it altogether. Lewis b Zahir Khan 23(14) [4s-2 6s-1]

Zahir Khan to Lewis, SIX, has that gone out of the ground? It has! Whoa! What a hit! Zahir errs on the fuller side and Lewis launches this over cover. Straight into the night sky and it kept going, going and going!!! Incredible!

Fawad Ahmed to Charles, FOUR, straight as an arrow! Floated up fuller by Fawad and that's not an area to bowl to a rampaging Charles. He holds his shape and lifts this straight over the bowler's head. Tuskers are off to a flier here

Fawad Ahmed to Lewis, FOUR, banged away! This was better connection, as Lewis lofted this inside out over cover. Carved away

Fawad Ahmed to Lewis, FOUR, first boundary for Lewis! Saw one flighted by Fawad and went for the inside out drive over cover. Got it more off the slice but doesn't matter

Migael Pretorius to Charles, FOUR, hacked over the infield! In the slot from Pretorius and Charles throws the kitchen sink at it. Not middled that well but such is his power that he gets it over the mid-wicket region

Zahir Khan to Charles, FOUR, crunched! Overcooked from Zahir and Charles smartly drills it straight back past the bowler. Didn't overhit it, just picked his spot, getting it wider of mid-off and long-on had no chance to get across

Zahir Khan to Charles, FOUR, starts with a long hop and Charles doesn't need second invitation. Sits back and nails the pull over backward square leg
