- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR0.4 picks out deep backward square leg! Length ball, angling across the left-hander at 88mph. He has a swipe across the line with no timing, and Hetmyer hardly has to move on the boundary 4/19.5 Dre Russ gets underneath this one! Banton comes charging down again and looks to go straighter down the ground. But it's not quite out of the screws, and Russell runs around to his right to take a good catch 73/216.3 slower ball, follows Root as he shimmies outside leg stump. Skews away via the inside edge, through to Pepper on the bounce, who throws at the stumps with his glove still on and hits... and Hales is just short of his ground! There wasn't much of an appeal, but the TV umpire sticks "OUT" on the big screen 131/319.4 stunning diving catch by Dawson at point! Hung very wide outside off, another slower ball. Root reaches for it and chops it away on the cut, but Dawson flings himself low to his right and clings onto it 160/4Extras7 (lb 2, nb 4, w 1)TOTAL166/4 (20 Overs, RR: 8.3 per 6 ball)Fall of wickets: 1-4 (Adam Lyth, 0.4 ov), 2-73 (Tom Banton, 9.5 ov), 3-131 (Alex Hales, 16.3 ov), 4-160 (Joe Root, 19.4 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR1.2 result! Caught at backward point! Hits uppishly and chips straight to Rashid Khan. Imad Wasim strikes early 8/17.2 oh wow! You can see why Rashid Khan stayed on. Jennings tries the reverse and gets a feather behind! That's an important wicket for Rockets as Jennings was cruising. Banton does well with that catch. 52/54.1 and he gets it! Pope given out lbw on the sweep as the ball strikes very low on the front pad. He reviews but ball-tracking shows it hitting leg stump about a third of the way down. Imad Wasim strikes again! 41/26.2 eyes light up, he attacks this ball slightly outside off and lofts straight to Powell inside the rope at long-off! One wicket from two balls for Rashid Khan 49/36.3 tight line, on middle and leg by the looks, the bowler and keeper appeal with gusto. Not given on field. Rockets appeal. The ball hits the front knee roll as the batter lunges forwards as the ball turns past the inside edge. Ball-tracking has it hitting middle and leg! No evidence it pitched outside leg, so Hetmyer has to go 49/418.5 full toss, bit of a miscue as he can't get it away, it drops short of midwicket, who swoops, the ball is fired in and Tom Banton does the rest, the batter is well out of his ground 143/912.2 breakthrough! Slower ball, back of the hand, it keeps ever so low as Russell swings hard, misses and is doubled over as the ball clatters into the stumps! An ever-entertaining innings comes to an end 101/615.5 appeal for lbw, not given and Rockets review. the ball brushes the front knee roll and hits the inside of the back knee, could be hitting middle and leg and it's out according to ball tracking! Rashid Khan finishes quite a night with another wicket, four in all 126/717.4 outside off heaves to deep midwicket but there's a fielder sitting underneath it and taken! Easy catch for Adam Lyth as Stone fails to get enough on that shot 142/819.2 and that's that! Top edge as he takes a swipe, the ball sailes straight up and Lewis Gregory sits under it for a return catch.
