Tye to Benjamin, out Caught by Tom Taylor at !! And he's gone! Slower delivery again, full and on middle, Benjamin looked to go downtown but he didn't time this.

Tye to Benjamin, SIX, oh he's clobbered that! Back of a length just outside off and it sat up for Benjamin, he was so quick to shift on to the backfoot and pull that away over cow corner. That made an incredible sound off the bat

Tye to Mousley, out Caught by Tom Taylor!! In the air and taken! Slower delivery bowled full and on leg-stump, Mousley skipped down the track looking to whip it into the leg-side but was through his shot far too early. It shot up off a leading edge and carried all the way down to deep mid-wicket where Taylor pouched it safely. Warwickshire are losing a bit of momentum as we approach the end here. Mousley c Tom Taylor b Tye 2(3)in the air and taken!

Freddie Heldreich to Hain, 2 runs, length delivery pushed wide across off-stump, Hain backed away looking to slap that through the off-side but was through his shot too early and dragged it past the bowler off the toe end, they scampered back for a tight single and a better throw would've found the non-striker short!

Willey to Yates, out Caught by Cobb at !! That's an outstanding catch from Cobb! Back of a length on off, sat up nicely for Yates and he absolutely nailed this pull in front of square, Cobb on the boundary ran across to his left and leapt up, got both hands to it and took it at the apex of his jump. Did really well to just stay inside the ropes as well, superb interception and take that. He did everything right there and he had to if he wanted to take that. Yates c Cobb b Willey 71(53) [4s-8 6s-1]

Freddie Heldreich to Maxwell, out Caught by Tye!! Gone! The big fish is gone first ball! Maxwell, seemingly requiring no sighters, looks to go big on his very first ball and he's perished!

Maxwell c Tye b Freddie Heldreich 0(1)

Freddie Heldreich to Alex Davies, out Stumped!! Excellent work behind the stumps! Length delivery on off, was given air and went on with the arm, Davies was looking to carve that over cover but he didn't read it.
