16.1 PLUMB...absolutely plumb. Full ball pitches on middle and straightens hitting White below the knee roll in front of middle, would have hit middle half way up. The ball did keep low but White was simply beaten for pace and swing there. 79/4

37.6 slower ball, pitched full on middle, hits the back pad before clattering into the stumps, a great change-up from Malinga. A good effort from Noffke to get the PM's XI to a respectable and, just possibly, a defendable total. 152/10
