All

W
Warrican to Rahul, out Stumped!! Warrican strikes in his first over! A nicely tossed up delivery outside off and Rahul was down the wicket to deal with this. The ball spins away sharply to beat Rahul and the keeper is on to it in a flash. Dislodges the bails in a jiffy and the batter has no chance to get back in. He advanced down the track against Pierre and launched a six against him, but gets outfoxed by Warrican at the other end. KL scored a century in the previous Test, unfortunately throws his wicket away in this game. Rahul st Tevin Imlach b Warrican 38(54) [4s-5 6s-1]
