14 September 2007 (20-over match)

England innings (20 overs maximum)		R	M	B	4s	6s	SR
DL Maddy	c Hussey b Clark	20	33	20	3	0	100.00
7.3 driven high and straight but Maddy deceived by the slower ball ... no power in the shot and deepish mid-off takes a routine catch 48/3
MJ Prior†	c Bracken b Johnson	17	19	17	1	1	100.00
4.5 a charge too far, Prior gets cramped as Johnson follows him and the ball, which hit high up on the bat, hangs for a long time before falling to Bracken at wide mid-on 29/1
LJ Wright	c †Gilchrist b Johnson	3	7	6	0	0	50.00
6.4 Johnson swings it across Wright who slogs and gets a thick outside edge, Gilchrist does the rest 37/2
KP Pietersen	b Bracken	21	30	20	2	0	105.00
13.1 the dangerman has gone, that's the biggest wicket yet, cleaned up with a full delivery as he stepped to leg, almost yorking himself 97/5
PD Collingwood*	lbw b Lee	18	12	11	2	1	163.63
10.3 low full toss, on off, and a huge wicket, Collingwood trapped low and there wasn't much deliberating needed to give that one out 73/4
A Flintoff	c Clark b Johnson	31	24	19	4	1	163.15
16.6 tries to be clever and run the ball up and over the vacant first slip but it's held by Clark at a shortish third man 127/6
OA Shah	c Clarke b Bracken	14	15	13	0	1	107.69
17.4 wheels are coming off - Shah holes out now, this time to a sanother slow delivery over in front of deep midwicket 128/7
AD Mascarenhas	run out (Clark)	4	8	6	0	0	66.66
18.6 Clark to Broad, unfortunate dismissal in some ways... Mascarenhas charging down the track in backing up and Broad's straight drive takes a nick from Clark's down-pointing fingers 132/9
CP Schofield	c †Gilchrist b Clark	1	4	4	0	0	25.00
18.5 great catch, Gilchrist dives to his left - and seems to be suspended there - making great ground to hold the thick edge with one outstretched glove 132/8
SCJ Broad	b Bracken	1	4	3	0	0	33.33
19.6 and that's that, Broad cleaned up going for a huge one, driving an inside edge back on to the stumps 135/10
RJ Kirtley	not out	2	3	4	0	0	50.00
