Mitchell Owen to Rahul, out Caught by Renshaw!! Catching practice at long-on and it's Owen's maiden ODI wicket. KL is livid with himself as he walks away - a slot delivery and he was looking to go downtown for a maximum, but he doesn't quite get hold of the shot, straight down Renshaw's throat at long-on, who takes the catch with his fingers pointing upwards. Rahul c Renshaw b Mitchell Owen 38(31) [4s-2 6s-2]
