Speaking of the 20 over of the first innings of the game, the West Indies bowler Young began the first ball of the 20th over with a wide, while the very next ball which was the first legal delivery of the over was smashed for the six over mid-wicket, the next delivery was no-ball as per the waist height rule and then the free hit delivery was smashed by Bosch for the boundary down the ground. Then the third delivery of the over was smashed for the half dozen runs over the mid-wicket.

Interestingly the fourth ball of the over went for no runs as the Bosch attempted the uppercut but couldn’t connect the ball. The fifth ball was hit for the six as it was sweet-timed over the midwicket again. The last ball of the over took three balls to be over as the first ball went for the wide, then the succeeding ball was a no-ball and went for the six, then the final legitimate ball went for one run as the perfect yorker was bowled by Young.
