- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR6.6 Overpitched outside off, tries to smite and ends up getting a big top-edge and it's safely snaffled by Tim Southee at short third, reverse cups it. Tempted him with a fuller delivery and he tried to slap it into the covers, playing away from his body and not quite under it 60/117.1 Bit short and gets a hint of inward seam movement towards middle and leg, finds the fielder on the pull; it's Dsouza who is such a livewire in the field, swooped to his right at midwicket and gobbled it up with a slide. Superb take 109/78.3 Quicker legbreak and gets sharp turn outside off, he goes down on one knee for full-blooded slog sweep and ends up getting a feather edge; Seifert takes a nifty catch and the danger man departs! 64/212.2 Good length and just inside the guideline on off, slaps it in the air with no timing whatsoever, loses his shape and gets a top edge, taken comfortably by Jason Roy in the covers. Pressure of dots was building up and the attempt to break free has backfired. Spinners have spun a web and not giving much away 84/312.4 Around the wicket, fuller on middle, dinked to cover inside the ring, sharp throw at batter's end and it looks quite close. Seifert got an awkward throw but managed to throw at the stumps and no dive from Najibullah means it was always going to be difficult to make his ground; that's a lackadaisical effort while running 85/413.3 Around the wicket, overpitched just inside the tramline, tries to break the shackles and throws his bat at it, toe-end part of the bat and taken by Southee again behind cover. Wickets are tumbling and spinners have completely changed the momentum after Warriors managed a blazing powerplay 86/515.6 Same shot and this time it's comfortably pouched at his waist height and TKC makes no mistake. Tried to lift it up and over long-off and didn't have much oomph behind the shot. It's going from bad to worse, nothing really working for Warriors after the powerplay 96/618.6 Bowled! Pinpoint accurate yorker on middle and right at the base of the stumps, zingers go off and Chameera has to go! 122/819.3 Not much pace, bit short on fifth, larrups it to long-on, fielder collects on one bounce and Haider Ali can't make his ground at the non-striker's end 125/9Extras3 (w 3)TOTAL131/9 (20 Overs, RR: 6.55)Did not bat: Zahir KhanFall of wickets: 1-60 (Adam Rossington, 6.6 ov), 2-64 (Gulbadin Naib, 8.3 ov), 3-84 (Sikandar Raza, 12.2 ov), 4-85 (Najibullah Zadran, 12.4 ov), 5-86 (Khalid Shah, 13.3 ov), 6-96 (Dasun Shanaka, 15.6 ov), 7-109 (Shai Hope, 17.1 ov), 8-122 (Dushmantha Chameera, 18.6 ov), 9-125 (Haider Ali, 19.3 ov)
