4th over: England 17-0 (Salt 8, Duckett 9). A maiden. Harshit finds a better length against Salt and is rewarded with a few dots and then sends an awkward one into Salt’s mirdriff as the batter attempts to pull. That’ll smart a little. A really good comeback over from Harshit after going for 11 in his first. We’ve had two maidens in the first four overs

3rd over: England 17-0 (Salt 8, Duckett 9). England are up and running now. The first runs off Shami come from a beautiful orthodox cover drive all along the ground from Duckett for four. Two more to deep square leg follow. Then just as we were musing on what a nice true surface this is, one keeps low and befuddles Duckett, as does the subsequent ball, a jaffa off the seam that beats the batter all ends up.
