Jofra Archer from the other end. Starts off with a half-hearted appeal against Taylor for LBW but its pitching outside leg. Three dot balls. Taylor wanted to sneak a run but the fielder at point was quick and had he hit the stumps Taylor was gone by a mile. Taylor finally manages to time the ball and runs a double on the last ball of the over. 

Reece Topley to open the bowling. Outswinger for left-hander Taylor, gets a thick outside edge towards deep third for a single. Inswinger for right-hander Gous, a leading edge but lands safe of the cover fielder and the batters run a double. Topley bowls one that holds its line and goes just past the outside edge. On the pads, and Gous flicks it over short fine leg fielder and gets a SIX. OUT! Similar ball, similar shot, this time the ball goes towards deep square leg and the fielder at the boundary takes a comfortable catch.

We know what we have to do. I think the boys have bowled well, hopefully today’s the day. Jordan comes in for Wood.

Aaron Jones: Wanted to bowl first as well. We are going to go hard, it’s a good wicket. We are going to play fearless cricket like always. We need to be more disciplined in batting and bowling. Same team as the last game.
