Warner and Sehwag are at the crease. Warner is on strike. Praveen Kumar will open the attack

0.6 Praveen Kumar to Sehwag, no run, peach! absolute beauty! Lures Sehwag forward and gets it to shape away, in the corridor of uncertainty, beaten! Didn't miss the outside edge by much
0.5 Praveen Kumar to Sehwag, no run, back of a length and around the off stump, better line and length, Sehwag presents the full face of the bat and defends it down the wicket off the backfoot
0.4 Praveen Kumar to Warner, 1 run, on the pads again, clipped to deep backward square leg, straight to the fielder this time around
0.3 Praveen Kumar to Warner, FOUR!!, crunch! Width on offer and Warner won't miss out on those, cracked off the backfoot, extra cover and mid off just watch the ball go racing into the fence
0.2 Praveen Kumar to Warner, FOUR!!, rocket-pace! too short, leg stumpish, no swing whatsoever, Warner rocks back and pulls it with utter disdain, didn't go too wide of the fielder at deep backward square leg, he had to move only three to four steps to his right, but by the time he got there the ball had gone past and he could only get some hand to it, no use!
0.2 Praveen Kumar to Warner, wide, not the right line this time around, going down the leg, Warner goes across and watches the keeper collect it
0.1 Praveen Kumar to Warner, no run, Praveen Kumar starts off well, just short of a good length and on the middle and leg, not much movement first up, Warner goes back and defends it to the on side
