Nothing that simple

Parnell is back..."I haven't seen much of Buttler, but above Bairstow in such a situation?" We shall see Rahul...although Buttler hasn't done much in an international so far...
9.1
Parnell to Buttler, SIX, 88.2 mph, but oh my goodness what a shot this is, stand and deliver. He shuffles back in the crease and heaves it straight over the bowler's head, it goes miles back, a huge strike
9.2
Parnell to Buttler, SIX, 79.7 mph, and again! Outside off stump this time and banged straight down the ground again, supreme hitting this, is it Buttler's time now
Fine leg comes up...
9.3
Parnell to Buttler, 2 runs, 86.9 mph, fuller outside off, slapped just past extra cover for a couple
9.4
Parnell to Buttler, 1 no ball, 72.9 mph, too wide of off stump now but this is also a no-ball, whoops
So now a free hit, does he go back to the scoop, that's his shot...
9.4
Parnell to Buttler, (no ball) FOUR, 86.9 mph, yes he does and pulls it off beautifully, gets it well over short long leg and away for four, and another no-ball! Shocking
Free Hit #2...
9.4
Parnell to Buttler, FOUR, 80.0 mph, length outside off stump but Buttler steps outside off and scoops again to fine leg for a one bounce four, super shot again
24 from the over...
9.5
Parnell to Buttler, SIX, length on middle stump and this is smashed into the stands over midwicket, another wonderful strike, this is special stuff
9.6
Parnell to Buttler, 2 runs, another pull out to midwicket, a fumble lets them back for the second
There you go Rahul! That was the first time Buttler's pulled it off in an international, 32 off the over, great hitting...
