Gudakesh Motie to Will Young, 2 runs, "catch it" is the shout, but it dropped just short of the diving fielder. Young comes down the track and whips it to the right of long-on. Off the cue end and flicks the fingers of the diving fielder

Gudakesh Motie to Will Young, out Caught&Bowled!! No dropping this time around. Both openers back in the hut now. It was slower and drifting in with the angle, Young looks to flick and closes the bat face a tad too early in the process. Spoons it off the thick leading edge back to the bowler as Motie accepts the dolly.

Shamar Joseph to Daryl Mitchell, FOUR, slower 111ks delivery from Shamar Joseph but the length was a fraction too full, allowing Mitchell to clear his front leg and tonk it over mid-on

Vitel Lawes to Mark Chapman, FOUR, a juicy full toss on the stumps, Chapman says thank you and bashes it over mid-wicket for a one-bounce boundary

Vitel Lawes to Mark Chapman, out Stumped!! Coach Darren Sammy is chuffed to bits as he delightfully celebrates the second wicket of Vitel Lawes on debut. An absolute peach from the teenager. Got the ball to land in line with leg stump, gripped and spun away sharply past off stump - turned Mark Chapman into an S and lured him out of the crease with lovely flight and dip - past the outside-edge in no time and the keeper completes the formalities.
