So nearly chipped it back to the bowler! Tossed up, full and on the pads, Curran looks to flick it away but gets it off the outer part of the bat. Miscues it low and to the right of the bowler. It goes on the bounce to Chase.
Alzarri Joseph makes his way back to the field now but is replaced by Roston Chase who is introduced into the attack.

More frustration for Alzarri! Joseph goes short again, over middle, Salt swivels and pulls it to the left of deep backward square leg. The throw from the deep is wayward and it is not backed up well, allowing another run.

A big mix-up but no harm done! Curran was gone had the throw hit. Angling in, on a nagging length, on middle and leg, Salt nudges it in front of mid on. Curran sets off for the run and is almost halfway down the track when he is sent back by Salt. The mid on fielder swoops in and fires in a throw at the bowling end but luckily for him, the throw does not hit the stumps. Curran was struggling even with a dive.
