Sipamla to Axar, out Caught by Ferreira!! That's how he has bounced back. Concedes a six, but storms back in style to remove Axar the very next ball. This was on the shorter side outside off, Axar plays it late and carves it towards backward point. Ferreira stationed there takes a safe reverse cup catch and another Indian batter who fails to convert his start into a formidable score. That's the second wicket for Sipamla. Axar c Ferreira b Sipamla 23(21) [6s-1]
