Tom Curran to Najibullah, out Caught by Hales!! Najibullah swings hard off the final ball, and skies it up off the toe-end. It's taken comfortably at long-on. A lovely slower ball from Curran and the line is quite wide outside off, keeping it away from Najibullah's swinging arc. He was deceived by the lack of pace too, going through the shot early. Najibullah c Hales b Tom Curran 0(1)

Tom Curran to Pooran, out Bowled!! What a yorker! Pooran is on the floor after losing his balance and losing his leg stump as well. His bat never came down and it went right through his legs to knock him over. Pooran b Tom Curran 57(49) [4s-4 6s-2]
