5 Chances !! :-[
Maxwell was on 13 when he edged Malcolm Waller as he tried to drive but Brendan Taylor
could not hold on.
Mitchell Marsh had not scored when he flicked Nyumbu to short leg but Tino Mawoyo put down the chance.
Brad Haddin should have been out on 5 but Waller dropped a return catch from a top-edge
when Chatara fluffed a chance in his follow-through :
and on 17 when Chatara put down an easier opportunity at short fine leg.
