Transcript
00:00pulled away this is really clipped nicely up and over the top of wide long arm into space
00:13and Simon Hinks is the match referee that'll be four clubbed away muscled by Belle Drummond
00:25now it's gone down towards deep third and will pick up a boundary the first real width
00:33glorious shot that is absolutely superb
00:40hit away very very firmly indeed
00:45that is brilliant that is sensational from Muyei
00:52pulled towards that mid-wicket region again and Dixon this time won't be able to cut that off
00:59does he get it over the top yeah he does
01:03not sure he's going to cut that off
01:07lovely beautiful shot and this will go all the way into the crowd
01:14again towards that leg side heaved and he gets it to behind square
01:20pulled into the gap really good this from Belle Drummond
01:28it's another half century for the experienced opener for the Kent Spitfires
01:33in line or length gets it through that is such a good shot to bring up the hundred
01:40for the Spitfires he just back into the attack I think this is gone sky-high
01:45should be a catch no another six powered out towards those two fielders
01:53wow there's a bit of air it's pierced the field through the offside just like a rocket past short extra cover
02:04all picked up over mid-wicket is there a fielder out there there is but it yorks him
02:09wow oh that's in the air up and over backward point thirds inside the circle oh
02:15hit hard hit very very straight and hit very very long
02:22get your body behind it good running very good running that's smart cricket not getting caught up
02:35that's 50 for moment yeah Meredith returns need a breakthrough Somerset
02:43slapped away and that might make the boundary and it makes three figures for
02:49Daniel Belle Drummond absolute clinic
02:54oh is it a catch oh I think that is a catch what a terrific catch that is so
03:00nonchalant it looked like you just take it on the half volley but oh he scooped it up
03:04really well gone flush into the glove I think we're getting a closer picture
03:10now does it half holly in no that's straight in what a catch for me that's out
03:15let me see it's a quick ball that's just bottom edged drops his right hand onto it
03:21well what do you think now I still think the same
03:27well done that is terrific cricket Tom Banton fair play keeping his concentration
03:36oh goodness me up in the air straight down the throat
03:42oh deep point Tom Abel is there will they question the height I don't think so it looked
03:47okay at first glance and Sam Billings can't quite believe what he's just done
03:54straight down the ground beautifully picked up
03:58oh that's another one oh that's enormous straight he strikes now and it's the end
04:10and maybe down the ground those forearms coming into play from Jack Leaning
04:17oh skywards it's in the air for an eternity
04:23and safely pouched the captain an extra cover
04:27it's the end of Jack Leaning
04:30new batter must face now
04:33oh he might be there for one delivery yet again another sky up yet again comfortably held
04:42Craig Overton this time
04:43almost squeezed it through decided to go leg stump Yorker
04:52flayed away will try and come back for the second Abel's quick
05:00and they decide not to take on the arm a single to conclude
05:06yep at to take a little bit of action Smead
05:11can't allow somebody who's not of great pace just to bowl length
05:14yeah and because he ran at him he went shorter in that second delivery and Smead realised that
05:21Banton pulls that aggressively
05:27put down
05:29was put down
05:34that isn't ridiculous that is absolute brute strength
05:40that isn't that's picked up short boundary towards that leg side towards the church
05:48can't bowl there that is in the slot
05:55this is the power of Banton
05:58gone again
06:01can't change the field
06:03one bounce four
06:04yeah and Banton realises that he's just going to try and hit a length
06:09roundabout off stump steps a little bit leg side
06:12three for 26 in his last game and he's not off to a good start
06:19trying to go over mid-off this one is just muscled
06:24exactly the same then
06:26know how to do it
06:27picked him out picked him right between as well
06:31forty six bantam was he now goes on to 50 what a performance from Tom Banton
06:42half century has come up from 22
06:45three
06:47that's even better that is right out of the middle Somerset are on the March scoop
06:55has he got enough of it
06:57oh you bet he has
06:59bullied down the ground
07:03bullied down the ground
07:04oh that looks close
07:08oh that looks very close indeed
07:10Gilchrist is on the money with the last ball of the over
07:13and Banton
07:15after the terrific knock has got to go
07:18sign a revised contract with Somerset
07:21up and over
07:24his third back there is deep point out there
07:27yes there is a fielder
07:28and I think that's terrific bowling
07:30good class
07:31thinking
07:32oh hit hard
07:36but there's a deep point out there
07:37just to get around
07:40he's feeling it now
07:44he knows that he's got to press the accelerator button
07:47pulled away
07:50there's not a lot of room down there for the fielders to get across
07:55oh and he's flipped it round the leg side
07:59and it's not getting any better here from Agar
08:02oh straight
08:05very straight
08:07very hard
08:08short hit hard
08:10has he got enough of it
08:11no he hasn't
08:13there's a big tall fielder out there in Klarsen
08:16that's crafty
08:20scooped
08:23scooped
08:24oh what a shot
08:25no it isn't
08:26we couldn't quite see where it was going
08:28now has he got all of this
08:32no he hasn't
08:34straight down the throat
08:35of Jack leaning a long arm
08:37now
08:39Dixon can stand there and admire this
08:41finally they managed to get
08:43over the rope
08:44oh that's gone all the way
08:46that's massive
08:47absolutely massive
08:48watch out in the crowd
08:50it might have even gone into the car park
08:52Ben Green
08:55stands delivers and sends it
08:57slugged down the ground
09:00it's gone flat
09:01and gone
09:02all the way

09:11high in the air
09:15don't think he's got all of this
09:17and taken
09:18another couple of yards
09:20you could just see
09:21as Harry Finch takes the catch
09:23out in the deep
09:24it quietens the crowd
09:25well I think
09:29Overton's got plenty of that
09:31and he sent it skywards
09:33and he sent it over the boundary
09:35it matters not
09:36because Kent
