Marumani shot :6:

Looking good again but it's around now he finds a way to get out.

Exactly man. Gets into this glowing positions and then gets out. 55 - 0 off 6 overs is a superb start from these two. Just hang in there lads until 10 overs. Be selective!

Bennett missed out on another boundary opportunity there as well. A wife half volley..

If there's one criticism of his game, it's that BB hits the fielders a lot.

Plenty of easy twos to get and these guys are quick between the wickets

Man this is edge of your seat stuff. Maru's feet against the spin are rapid! Gets into such weird positions so quickly which allows him to really get his weight into the ball.

Bennett needs to keep rotating that strike. Lots to doubles around the ground here

I'm saying the reverse sweep from Maru against the left arm spinner. And then it goes straight up. Quite a poor shot but he's got us off to another excellent start. We'll batted kid

His complimented Bennett well every game. Takes some edge off, whilst Bennett gets going.
