Pretty much even atm. Maybe Hartley small favourites, knocked over the tail pretty quickly. Steyn the rabbit killer. I don't care if we got a middle order bat and an opener ffs, they were Kaif and Farhat

Hartley get the first points of the competition then. Quite a few starts in that innings, but nobody went on, although Shakib looked good for a score. SWXI might be left wandering what might've been had they had a third seamer to help spread the work load when it was the pace bowlers doing the damage.
