Sam Cook: "Three wickets in the Powerplay in white-ball cricket is what you ask for. Hopefully, we can knock these runs off. It's a pretty good wicket. We identified early on that we have to go to our change-ups and get under the bat. [Run-out] A lot of emotion in the celebration. We spoke about it before the game, trying to get one. [Chase?] Very confident. Hopefully we can knock them off and start with a win."

7.46pm: This isn't a terrible effort from 26 for 4 off 30 balls but it looks at least 15-20 short from the Phoenix. Stoinis apart, the Rockets' attack were all excellent, with Ferguson the standout, and without Livingstone's 39, the Phoenix would have been in big trouble. But that late flurry from Mousley and Howell has given them something to bowl at.

Stoinis to Howell, SIX, donked over midwicket! Makes a perfect 'ping' off the middle of the bat. Slot ball, Howell clears his front leg and crunches him over the leg side for half a dozen. 85 metres

Akash: "Phoenix definitely regretting not retiring out Clarke for Mousley"

Stoinis to Mousley, 1 leg bye, struck on the pad as Mousley steps across looking to sweep, but must have pitched outside leg. Very slow slower ball, and Mousley is through his shot early. Rockets review, and why not at this stage of the innings? Yep, as anticipated, it pitched outside leg

Stoinis, not Willey, will close the innings out. Only four men out of the ring, remember

Ferguson to Mousley, FOUR, half-volley, drilled over cover! Lands just short of the rope. Too full, Mousley throws his hands at it, and it flies away for four

Ferguson to Mousley, 1 wide, short ball outside off... too short, as Mousley leaves it alone

The Rockets have missed the cut-off, so a fifth outfielder will have to come into the inner ring.
