3rd over: 14-0 (Haynes 1, Healy 13) Haynes gets her first run of the day, nudging Jess Kerr to the leg side. Healy again plays a different style from the start, that crisp pull shot to a ball that’s only bouncing hip-high, but they’ve got a deep backward square to protect the boundary. Back to Haynes, stepping across this time to guard her off stump. Misses out on a couple of attempted cuts to the ball angled across her. Haynes 1 from 11, Healy 13 from 7.
2nd over: 12-0 (Haynes 0, Healy 12) Different strokes for different folks! First ball from Rosemary Mair to Alyssa Healy, it’s right-arm seam on a length outside off stump, and Healy utterly cracks that away with a pull shot for four. Nice clean sound off the bat to deep midwicket. The next ball is that length as well, more in at the body, so the Healy shot this time drags the ball away rather than spanking it, but the same result, through square leg this time. And another four two balls later, full on the pads and tucked through midwicket along the ground, beating the field. Finally Mair finds her line and length, swinging away outside off, and Healy leaves. A dozen runs from the over though, more than making up for the quiet start.
