- BATSMENRB4s6sSR4.4 miscued to mid-off, Jordan gets QdK again! Using those changes of pace to good effect, this one skipped on at de Kock attempted to club him over the top, instead the ball looping gently to Curran, jogging back into position for a safe catch. England strike in the Powerplay 34/17.6 gottim! Bavuma plinks another catch to mid-off! Soft dismissal with the opener going nicely, like de Kock looking to hit over the infield, this went straight to Jordan at a very catchable height 61/29.3 Stokes does it again! Another slower ball, Hendricks looks to force it off the back foot, gets a thick low edge through to the keeper... They are going to check this, but looked to have carried pretty comfortably. Things are happening all right for England's firestarter 64/3Extras3 (nb 1, w 2)TOTAL191/3 (20 Overs, RR: 9.55)Fall of wickets: 1-34 (Quinton de Kock, 4.4 ov), 2-61 (Temba Bavuma, 7.6 ov), 3-64 (Reeza Hendricks, 9.3 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR3.4 clattered on the pads and up goes the finger! That was full and fast, and Roy's attempted whip was far too late on the stroke. His instinct was right, it was heading leg-side, but it was probably still straight enough to hit leg stump, and Roy doesn't waste the review 25/1Extras10 (b 4, nb 1, w 5)TOTAL192/1 (17.4 Overs, RR: 10.86)Fall of wickets: 1-25 (Jason Roy, 3.4 ov)
