4th over: West Indies 14-0 (Brathwaite 8, Chanderpaul 6) More luck! Hazlewood angled an inswinger into Brathwaite and it caught an inside edge, just missing the stumps and skidding away for another lucky boundary. Good bowling by the Bendemeer Bullet! Brathwaite flicks a single off the pads to run a single. Big shout for lbw on the final ball but no one’s interetested beyond Hazlewood, least of all the umpires.
3rd over: West Indies 9-0 (Brathwaite 3, Chanderpaul 6) Starc gets Brathwaite hopping with the first but sprays the second down legside. He connects handsomely with a drive down the ground to the third and it Labuschagne hauls it in under just shy of the rope at the scoreboard. Chanderpaul tries to leave the next one but too late! It catches the descending blade, flies off the toe of the bat and balloons over slips for a streaky four. He’s smiling about it but that could have been disastrous.
