Michael Rae to Tevin Imlach, leg byes, 2 runs, 139kph, back of a length, rib-lined, Imlach tickles it to fine leg. Tickner runs to his right in the deep and puts in a dive to try and stop it. He's actually prevented the boundary but Tickner seems to have injured himself in the process. Oh dear. This doesn't look good. Tickner is down on the floor for a couple of minutes. He may have dislocates his shoulder. Concerned faces in the New Zealand camp and Rae is almost in tears! Tickner is being stretchered off.
