17.3 to M Bryant, slower ball full and wide, Bryant tries to clear the leg side rope one more time but skies this to wide long-on. Was in the air for an eternity and allows Patterson to range 25 yards to his right and still have time to stop and settle to take a chest high catch two yards inside the rope.. 132/5 19.1 to MG Neser, length ball on off, Neser tries to slog over wide long-on but only manages to find the safe hands of Patterson who takes another good catch at thigh height sliding on his knees five yards inside the rope.. 144/7
Lance Morris	2	0	21	0	10.50	5	1	2	0	0
Ashton Agar	4	0	26	1	6.50	8	3	0	0	0
12.1 to SD Heazlett, good length arm ball skids on straight on fifth stump, Heazlett was playing for turn coming in and edges a back foot punch through to the keeper Inglis well held. Or did he? Replays indicate there may have been a gap between bat and ball. But the appeal was convincing enough for the umpire to raise the finger.. 85/3
Peter Hatzoglou	4	0	17	2	4.25	10	1	0	0	0
9.1 to BM Duckett, slanted full across sixth stump, tries to slog sweep this but it's a bit too wide to control the shot and top edges this over short fine leg. Morris is underneath it on the ring and takes this on one knee cupping his hands in front of his face.. 71/2 13.4 to NA McSweeney, full on off, goes for the reverse sweep again but mistimes this gently fluttering to short third man. Simple catch for Morris at chest height on the ring.. 94/4
Mitchell Marsh	3	0	26	1	8.66	7	2	1	1	0
5.3 to CA Lynn, back of a length ball on the stumps, Lynn tried to take a step down to heave this over mid-on but it climbs too much on him and he splices it high to Patterson at long-on who takes a simple catch ten yards in from the rope.. 44/1
Andrew Tye	3	0	37	1	12.33	5	4	2	0	0
18.5 to JJ Bazley, full and wide outside off, goes to drive over extra cover but spoons this over the ring. Turner runs backward and takes a superb over the shoulder tumbling catch halfway between the 30-yard ring and the boundary. He made a 9/10 difficulty catch look like a run of the mill effort.. 144/6

5.2 to JP Inglis, length ball heaved to deep square leg. Heazlett runs 20 yards to his right from midwicket and takes a sharp catch sliding on his knees but his body isn't slowing down and may have made contact with the rope. He gets up and relays in quickly in a panic. But not sure why though. Third umpire replays show he was at least a yard inside the rope. Wicket is confirmed.. 45/1

6.2 to KR Patterson, good length ball on middle, goes to reverse sweep this and misses. Hit low below the knee roll. Straightened but wasn't turning back enough past leg stump. Straightforward decision after a confident appeal by Swepson.. 48/2 15.5 to MR Marsh, Marsh's carnage finally comes to an end. After all the brute force, tries to get cute with a paddle sweep to a fullish length ball on fourth stump and top edges this into his helmet before it caroms in the air for Peirson to take a simple catch behind the stumps.. 132/3
Matthew Kuhnemann	4	0	28	1	7.00	10	1	2	0	0
17.6 to C Munro, short and wide, slices a cut off a thick edge that floats to backward point. Simple catch for Neser at neck height with a bunny hop to get in behind it.. 147/4
