Ben Sears to Salman Agha, out Caught by Chapman!! The short ball does it. A similar pull got him a sixer couple of overs back but not this time. That was banged in, the ball stuck a little into the deck. The batter had to take it from outside off and from around shoulder height. There was a top-edge. The man from deep square ran to his left, got under it and took it with a little tumble. Massive strike for NZ. The skipper has to go. The bowler might have slowed the ball down a little as well. Salman Agha c Chapman b Ben Sears 46(28) [4s-4 6s-3]
