AM Ghazanfar to Michael Pepper, out Michael Pepper Run Out!! Andre Fletcher - you beauty. Michael Pepper was not even in the frame, miles short of his crease. This was pushed to the right of backward point and Pepper was guilty of ball-watching momentarily. He had a couple of quick glances at Fletcher before rushing to the non-striker's end. The fielder though was ultra-focussed. A mini slide and smashed the stumps direct with a pinpoint throw. Michael Pepper run out (Fletcher) 1(4)
