Fabian Allen presses to his front to lash it up and over the off side. The ball flies like an arrow to sail just over the wide long off fielder, but Kushal Bhurtel offers a fine leap, takes the catch, and in the mid air he loops it away as he loses his balance to land behind the boundary ropes.

Bhurtel picks up the ball and takes all his time to throw it directly to the non-striker's end stumps, as Navin Bidaisee sets off and he is all the way to the middle of the pitch.
