Cameron Green to Jofra Archer
OUT! CAUGHT! Another one bites the dust! Cameron Green gets in on the act now! Green steams in from over the wicket and bowls it on a back of a length, on middle and leg. Jofra Archer goes for the pull as he goes deep in the crease. Gets this one high on the bat and it goes only as far as deep mid-wicket where Matthew Short runs in and takes a safe catch diving forward. England are falling apart and are now 113/7 with 67 more runs needed to win.

Adam Zampa to Jamie Overton
OUT! DRAGGED ON! Is that the final blow to England? Definitely seems so as Jamie Overton walks back for 15 (9). Zampa sees the batter back away and follows with a fuller delivery which is bowled flatter as well, Jamie Overton tries to whip it across the line but misses. The ball deflects off his pads and goes on to crash into the stumps. Zampa has his second wicket of the night.
