Second ball: No run, left alone outside off stump as it shapes away from him.

Third ball: Forward defence on off stump.

Fourth ball: A bit of away shape again, Konstas solid defending on the front seat.

Fifth ball: That looked good, Konstas leaving one on a sixth-stump line, significant out swing for Siraj.
