- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4 slower ball gets rid of Adair! Pushed forward at the ball and it took the outside edge, almost went in slow motion to Moor at first slip who dived down to his left to catch the ball. 21/23 Stirling looks to drive a full ball down the ground, ends up playing down the wrong line and the ball crashes into the base of the stumps, the bails go flying and the Knights lose their first wicket 16/14.1 another wicket goes down! McCarthy bowls it full and straight, McCollum isn't able to get his bat down in time and the bails go flying again. What a start this has been for the Reds today. 21/36.3 Carmichael looks to drive the ball into the covers, doesn't play down the right line and the ball kisses the outside edge. Campher is at second slip and moves to his left to take the catch at head height. Reds all over this Knights this morning. 23/48.5 Middle stump is rocked back! Rock plays around a straight delivery and is bowled. What a great sight for a fast bowler. Rock gone for a duck. 36/532.4 Calitz falls just 4 runs short of the century! McCarthy had been tempting the batter, and this time Calitz goes for the cut shot. It's another small edge that goes straight into the keepers gloves. 174/1011.2 pushes the bat out at the ball, gets a tiny edge that goes through to the keeper and the Knights lose another 44/616.2 Neill is down on one knee looking to repeat his sweep towards deep mid-wicket. A fielder had been moved to short mid-wicket to stop that shot and takes an easy catch. The batter canât believe what he has done. 79/729.5 stumps go flying again! There is a little gap between bat and pad, the ball finds it and the stumps and knocked back again. Campher gets the breakthrough but it's been an excellent partnership 163/831.4 this time Foster does manage to get some bat on the ball. It's a tiny edge that goes through to the keeper. Campher has a finger in the air celebrating as the Umpires finger goes up 174/9Extras17 (lb 3, nb 2, w 12)TOTAL174 all out (32.4 Overs, RR: 5.32)Fall of wickets: 1-16 (Paul Stirling, 2.6 ov), 2-21 (Ross Adair, 3.6 ov), 3-21 (James McCollum, 4.1 ov), 4-23 (Cade Carmichael, 6.3 ov), 5-36 (Neil Rock, 8.5 ov), 6-44 (Sam Topping, 11.2 ov), 7-79 (Jordan Neill, 16.2 ov), 8-163 (Cian Robertson, 29.5 ov), 9-174 (Matthew Foster, 31.4 ov), 10-174 (Benjamin Calitz, 32.4 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR35.2 Looks to hit the ball back over the bowlers head, shanks the ball a little and mid-on takes an easy catch. Adair picks up a wicket 154/43.3 Knights pick up their first wicket! Kruger looks to drive the ball, gets an outsided edge which flies into Stirling's breadbasket at first slip. 7/19.4 Campher pulls the ball hard in the direction of mid-wicket. Topping moves to his right quickly to take the catch. His palms must be stinging as the ball was travelling. A yard either wide and that would have been a boundary. 23/213.4 Carmichael strikes again! Moor looks to turn the ball legside, and is hit on the front pad. Starts to run down the other end, and doesn't look at the Umpire who has his finger raised. 51/340.2 the reds lose another! Frost gets a long way forward and looks to defend the ball. The ball spins back through the gate and the stumps are rocked. Bails fly off and the batter has to go. 169/737.1 Adair picks up another wicket! Delany hits the ball high in the air towards deep mid-wicket. Long-on is tracking the ball whilst itâs in the air and runs along the boundary to take the catch. 161/537.4 McCarthy looks to sweep the ball down to long leg, and is bowled. Is there going to be a twist in the tail here? Why did the Knights wait so long to bring Adair on? 161/6Extras8 (b 1, w 7)TOTAL176/7 (42.1 Overs, RR: 4.17)Fall of wickets: 1-7 (Brandon Kruger, 3.3 ov), 2-23 (Curtis Campher, 9.4 ov), 3-51 (Peter Moor, 13.4 ov), 4-154 (Mark Andrianatos, 35.2 ov), 5-161 (David Delany, 37.1 ov), 6-161 (Liam McCarthy, 37.4 ov), 7-169 (Alistair Frost, 40.2 ov)
