- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR2.2 pulled high, very high and not very long... he tries to heave over deep midwicket, skies it and Daniel Sams, runs in and sits under it for a comfortable catch, Rossington gone! 22/15.3 fulish on leg stump, he makes room and looks to go down the ground... but skies it towards backward point where Colin Munro sits under it for a simple catch! 42/215.3 low full toss and to the man running in off the cover point boundary! 105/77.3 absolutel ripper! Jags back from just outside off and clatters into middle stump! It slips under the bat as he looks all at sea - and gone! 51/312.4 picks out the man at deep square leg! Sams takes the catch just inside the boundary and that's the breakthrough Rockets were seeking 86/414.1 and there's our answer! Turns away from the right-hander as Pollard steps away to give himself room and the ball crashes into the top of middle stump! 95/514.5 bowls from wide of the crease, round the wicket and round his legs! The ball plucks the bail off middle and off. What a lovely delivery! 97/617.5 back of a length ball, tight line and a bit of bounce, looks to go over deep midwicket, but picks out Colin Munro just inside the rope for a straightforward catch! 120/818.2 pace off, he side-steps to give himself room, works it in front of square leg, the fielder runs in .... wonderful throw from Daniel Sams and a direct hit has him short of his ground! 122/918.3 and a wonderful ball does for new batter Mason Crane! Pearl of a yorker, slides under the bat and clatters into middle and off.

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR3.2 lobbed in the air to mid-on! Hales hits lustily through the line but doesn't get hold of it at all. Rockets' big gun fails to atone for spiking his other big gun... and now Spirit are brawling! 21/20.1 loopy offspin, and a calamity run-out for Dawid Malan! Utter chaos from the big two, he got done good and proper! A nondescript nudge, with the spin to the on-side, Hales set off for a non-existent single, thought better of it, and there was no hope for his partner! 0/113.3 holes out to midwicket! TKC tried to get a wriggle on but picked the wrong ball to chase. A slower ball into the pitch, and a top-edged slap as he came galloping to the pitch 106/315.3 bowled him! Moores slashes into the glory shot, and gets his timbers rattled! Round the wicket, skids on as he gives himself room. The patient has a pulse! 121/4Extras1 (lb 1)TOTAL127/4 (15.4 Overs, RR: 8.03 per 6 ball)Fall of wickets: 1-0 (Dawid Malan, 0.1 ov), 2-21 (Alex Hales, 3.2 ov), 3-106 (Tom Kohler-Cadmore, 13.3 ov), 4-121 (Tom Moores, 15.3 ov)
