Arshdeep Singh to Yashasvi Jaiswal
OUT! CAUGHT! A fine innings from Yashasvi Jaiswal comes to an end and Arshdeep Singh strikes! Big, big wicket this! Arshdeep Singh was not happy with Liam Livingstone that he did not go for the catch in the last ball but this time, Liam Livingstone takes it and Arshdeep Singh is a happy man, finally. A fullish delivery, around off. Jaiswal goes for a big hit down the ground. However, he miscues it and the ball goes high in the air towards long off. Liam Livingstone settles under it and takes the catch to send back the danger man back to the pavilion. 49 needed now from 34 balls as Shimron Hetmyer walks out to the middle.
