Nathan Sowter to Powell, no ball, what a big moment that is. Azam Khan has the gloves in line with the stumps as he stumps Powell. What a let-off for Powell. It was so well bowled, down leg as Powell comes down the track to flick, he misses, Azam Khan is just eager and gets the gloves in front to collect, stumps Powell but all that won't matter. Powell is called back even as he was almost near the dugout

Nathan Sowter to Powell, wide, out Stumped!! Powell st Azam Khan b Nathan Sowter 2(6)
