G'day g'day. What a lovely Brisbane afternoon we've got here today, one that will only get better as the sun sets and it becomes slightly less disguistingly hot.

Lyon is bowling from the Stanley St End.

BEATEN! Lyon slides one past McKenzie's outside edge. Carey whips the bails of swiftly, but the batter's foot was safely planted.

SHOT! McKenzie wants to be assertive against Lyon, and it's paying off so far. An aggressive sweep shot, in the air most of the way, takes one bounce before crashing into the square leg fence.

McKenzie whips the final ball of the over off his pads and races back for three.

Good stuff from Kirk McKenzie so far this arvo. Over bowled.
