Root couldn't stop his grin as he prepared to bowl while Warner was flat out laughing. Rogers had to pull away from strike to laugh it out. Former England captain Nasser Hussain, who was commentating during the match passed a remark: “Shane Warne knows the bloke sitting next to the lady and he must have given her a phone call,” “‘What’s her name Shane?’” he asked adding, “Her name is Ally.”
