    Not only has Coulter-Nile scored runs he's done it at a really decent lick and given his team a great chance of getting to 300.

    NCN should've departed earlier though...

    Coulter-Nile 80, Cummins 2

    Nathan Coulter-Nile has hit 80 off 52 balls.

    Cricket is mad.

    Brilliant shot, great connection, brilliant innings this is.

    This game is bonkers. I think the Trent Bridge DJ has just given a blast of Dizzee Rascal's song of the same name to signify that too.

    Nathan Coulter-Nile lashes a brilliant lofted drive down the ground for six.

    Australia might want to bat him at three.

    That's unfortunate for Carlos, he's got great movement for a huge man.

    Carlos Brathwaite almost pulls off what would've been one of the greatest catches of all time.

    Nathan Coulter-Nile whacks another pull shot and Brathwaite puts in the drive on the rope, gets his palm to it but cannot prevent the ball rebounding off and over the boundary.

    That's six!

    Who knew Coulter-Nile was better at playing the pull shot than the Pakistan top order?

    That stitching must give him an extra spring in his step. Chris Gayle puts in the dive at short fine leg to keep Nathan Coulter-Nile to just a single as Sheldon Cottrell strays down leg.

    A massive round of applause as Gayle hauls himself to his feet and spreads his arms wide in appreciation.

    Stitched into Chris Gayle's spikes are the words 'Gayle Force Universe Boss'.

    Pete Ransom: That catch from Cottrell can't help but bring a smile to your face! I love the look of confidence in his face as he knows he's going to complete it. Brilliant stuff!

    Run rate 5.60

    Thomas slings down two poor wides, concedes a single and then finishes with three dot balls. A very eventful over.

    Pat Cummins is the new man for Australia, seeing out his first three deliveries. What can they muster from here? They have five overs to go.

    I'm not sure that was better than Ben Stokes' catch.

    I am sure that I really don't care.

    More bits of stunning fielding the better, thank you.

    Quite brilliant from Sheldon Cottrell - that's what West Indies can do, and have the ability to do.

    These boys have got some talent. He didn't know where the boundary rope was when he took the catch. It's amazing skill.

    Did you think you'd see a better catch than Ben Stokes?

    We've seen the best and the worst of catching in the last five minutes!

    Smith c Cottrell b Thomas 73 (Aus 249-7)

    OH MY WORD SALUTIN' SHELDON TAKE A BOW.

    Steve Smith whips out a scoop round the corner and Sheldon Cottrell sprints round from deep backward square leg, sticks out his left hand and pouches the ball.

    Yet his momentum is going to take him over the rope before he has full control so he shows the presence of mind to chuck the ball back up in the air, follow it and take a second catch in both hands.

    And you bet he gives the salute. What a moment. So that's how you get Steve Smith out eh?

    Steve Smith goes in to out and smacks Oshane Thomas away for four.

    Ashley Nurse also sent down two wides in that over - 12 from it.

    Mushy needs to have a word.
