On the second ball of the over, Santner got the reward for bowling slow as he delivered a length ball on the stumps, and in an attempt to sweep it, Samson only managed to get the top edged of his bat and the ball went to the deep-mid0wicket where the ball bounced a couple of time on Shorey’s body as he suddenly stopped his body after a sprint. but he finally managed to get his hands in order to grab the ball. Shorey grabbed the ball on his third attempt.
