He had an underarm delivery bowled to him under similar conditions. He advanced three strides down the pitch and let the ball hit his foot. He flicked it into the air & hit a six. At the distance down the pitch where the ball hit his foot it could not be given

Bit unexpected. Santner hasn’t done much this series, but he did well to gather that throw and make the run-out. Should count as a wicket :)

I watched the game on TV. It went well up until the 19th over. :)
Hopefully, but I am not placing any great hope on it. They can’t bat second. I’m on the Thunder to win the tournament this year. Hence the second team thing.
