Luckless Marsh run out in Adelaide

Luckless Shaun Marsh was the victim of a brilliant piece of fielding by Brendan McCullum when he was run out after the Kiwi skipper threw down the stumps while lying on his back.

Marsh had driven the ball down the ground when McCullum showed his desperation to chase down and dive to stop the ball from rolling past.

The stop was enough to force Marsh to hesitate as Steve Smith called him through for the single, only to watch as the Black Caps captain threw down the stumps to send him heading back to the dressing room for just two.

The dismissal came after Australian No.4 Adam Voges (13) was caught in the slips off the bowling of Tim Southee in just the third over of the day.
