Key Stats
18.6 Adil Rashid to Haris Sohail
Adil Rashid to Haris Sohail. Slider length ball, middle stump down the track Slog, missed to wicketkeeper for no runs, stumping missed by Buttler. Buttler cannot take the stumping chance! Nice bowling from Rashid, pushing it out the front of the hand. Some extra bounce off the deck, which means Sohail misses his big hoick across the line. Unfortunately for England, though, he could not collect cleanly and whip off the bails.It is becoming very frustrating, this. Another shower comes down and the players have to go off again. It's one of those days.
