Michael Rae to Shai Hope, FOUR, that should make him feel better! 133ks smidgen fuller on off, Hope shows full face of the bat and the timing on the shot takes care of the rest. Mid-on had no chance to his left...

This kid has potential, what he needs is mentoring.

Jacob Duffy to Shai Hope, FOUR, shot! There were shouts of "catch" but it was nowhere close to the fielder. Fullish delivery around off, Hope drives with a closed bat face and sends it racing past Chase.

@Narper

When last we ran this well between the wickets?

Tickner to Shai Hope, FOUR, lovely shot! Tickner overcorrects his length after the previous delivery and offers a half volley, Hope does not try to overhit the drive - presents the full face of the bat and creams it straight of mid-off. No need to run for that..
