00:00Cracked away for four and if the ball doesn't swing for Irfan, he's going to be a very tasty meal for Cameron Akmal.
00:12Well, the keeper's got to get up to the stumps here, Wilco.
00:15The keeper has to stand up here, he cannot allow Irfan Bataan just to be pummeled like that.
00:22Naman Elja is the keeper, he's got to stand up to the stumps here.
00:25Robby Utapa, I beg your pardon. Robby Utapa's keeping, you've got to stand up Robby.
00:31Naman Elja had been keeping, I beg your pardon. Robby's behind the pegs today.
00:40And that's half century. Cameron Akmal, from 29 balls, 7 fours and 2 sixes.
00:50He's gone off to this outstanding start.
00:56Again, using momentum to get out of the crease because Irfan Bataan is going to give very little pace on the ball.
01:04Well, I'm just watching Robby Utapa now. He has just gestured to Irfan, he said, I'll stand up.
01:12And I don't think Irfan Bataan wants him to stand up.
01:18The runs are coming all round the dial here.
01:24Well, I've been in this position before as a Wilco keeper and you've got to take it out of the bowler's hands here
01:29because this is just easy pickings for the batter.
01:34I know you're testing the ego of the bowler by saying, I know you're a fast bowler and you don't want me up to the stumps
01:42but from the team's perspective, I don't want Cameron Akmal just to be able to waltz down the wicket and hit you wherever he wants to hit you.
01:50Now it's a different game. Akmal cannot leave his crease.
01:55I hope Robby Utapa's got some pads on.
02:03That's a big hit as well. It's an ease my trip. We're going on another trip.
02:10The umpire's having a look at this.
02:18Big glide, just about carries up and over extra cover.
02:24Yeah, just three and a half inches I thought, Wilco.
02:28Well, Niall O'Brien was a carpet fitter in a previous life and he's just done.
02:43Well, it's a six and this over is proving rather dangerous for India.
02:49Gone for 18.
02:51Better. Just straighter.
02:56It's a place as a batter you don't get to that often in your career, really.
03:00You see the ball so well. Every ball, when the bowler's running into the ball, you just feel like I'm going to hit this ball for four or six.
03:08I'm going to go for the third.
03:09At least as a batter, you don't get to that often in your career, really, you know, when you see the ball so well, every ball, when the ball is running into the ball, you just feel like, I'm going to hit this ball for four or six.
03:21Very rarely as a batter do you get to that position in your career, and it's a moment you've just got to cherish.
03:28Now Sharjeel, left-hander, who loves clubbing the ball leg side.
03:35This young man will sleep well tonight.
03:41Oh dear. Six ball.
