OUT! CAUGHT! Sam Curran sends David Miller packing. Miller knew it as soon as he hit and there was a cry of anguish from the left-hander.
14.5
Wide! At 78 mph, banged in short, on off. Miller bails out of the pull. Too high for the umpire's liking. That seemed a bit harsh as the side-on replays show that Miller was on his toes and even then the ball passed him at helmet height.
14.4
Out comes the 'Moon ball', angled in on middle and leg. Stubbs waits for it and smears it through mid-wicket for a run more.
14.3
On a hard length, keeping it away from the batter's arc. Miller reaches out and spanks it to deep cover for just a single.
14.2
Bowls the slower, short ball, on middle. Stubbs gets on his toes to play the pull but ends up chopping it down on the leg side for one.
14.1
Around off, on a short of a length, that is punched off the back foot to long off for a single.
13.5
Full marks for the effort. This is on a short of a length, on off. Miller tries to thump it down the ground from the crease. He does not get hold of it, and Sam Curran is in business at long on. Curran is standing a bit wide and there is a bit of hesitation on his part whether to go for the catch or save the boundary. He puts in a dive to his right but the ball drops short and he parries it away towards long off. The batters pick up three runs.
13.4
Dug in short, outside off. Miller rises with the bounce and tries to play the ramp over the keeper but then bails out. Miller has a look at the umpire but the height is deemed fine.
13.3
Hits the top of the off stump, does Boult. Miller stays back, looking to go over mid-wicket with the pull but mistimes it straight to Ollie Pope there.
13.2
On the shorter side, on middle. Stubbs nudges it through square leg and takes the first run hard. He is keen for the second but Rashid Khan attacks the ball and keeps it to a single.
13.1
Very full, a hint of inward shape, on the off stump. Stubbs digs it out to cover.
0.0
The changes keep on coming as Trent Boult is brought back into the attack.
12.5
Full and quick, pushed at the pads. Miller tucks it to deep mid-wicket and picks up a single.
12.4
This is flatter and shorter, on middle and leg. Miller whips it to mid-wicket.
12.3
Stays around the wicket for the right-hander, full and across off. Stubbs walks across and knocks it to long on for a run.
12.2
Drifts in at the pads, Miller works it away in front of square on the leg side for a single.
12.1
Beats the bat! Begins with the off-break, on a length, on off. Miller looks to play it with the turn but is beaten past the outside edge.
0.0
Will Jacks has been tossed the ball now.
11.5

Jamie Smith c Will Jacks b Richard Gleeson 49 (26)
OUT! CAUGHT! Richard Gleeson strikes on his return. Jamie Smith will be mighty disappointed at not managing to put this one away. It is the slower one from the back of the hand by Gleeson. It comes out as a full toss, on off. Smith backs away early in an attempt to go down the ground. He waits before having a swing at it. Clinks it down to long on, where Will Jacks gobbles it up by dropping to his knees.
11.2
Sliding onto the pads, on the fuller side. Stubbs flicks it to deep backward square leg for another single.
11.1
Gleeson spots Smith backing away and he follows him with a hard-length delivery. Jamie clips it off the hips on the leg side for one.
0.0
Timeout! Time for a breather and the first innings is pretty well-poised at the moment. Jamie Smith is going great guns and Tristan Stubbs has just started to find his range as well. MI London will be in search of a breakthrough because the longer this stand continues, the more pressure the bowling side will be under. Anything around 160-170 could really be a solid total on this surface. Also, Richard Gleeson is back on to bowl.
10.5
Fuller and on off. Smith steps out and strokes it to cover.
10.4
SIX! Stand and deliver! Not a bad ball by any means, on a good length, on middle. Smith hangs back and stays beside the line of the ball. He just gets his hands through the line and muscles it over long on for a six.
10.3
A bit short, on middle and leg. Stubbs pulls it hard in front of square for a single.
SOB
Next batter.
Nikhil Chaudhary is the new batter in.
