    5.5 taken at mid-off! Full outside off, looking to loft it down the ground but can't get the elevation as the bat twisted in his hands and it's a simple catch for Smith. Rickelton couldn't get going today 34/2

    1.6 good catch! Short of a length outside off, looks to cut it away, takes a top edge to short third who grabs it low to the ground 6/1

    7.5 cleaned up! Back of a length, de Kock goes for the pull again, probably not short enough for the shot, takes the top of off stump. Key wicket 44/3

    14.3 Straight to long-off! Jansen bowls another low full toss outside off from around the wicket and Klaasen again looks to go downtown, but this time he doesn't get enough power or elevation behind it to clear Mukhtar Ahmed 102/5

    13.1 Direct hit! Ranjane pushes this towards cover and takes off, but Steven Smith is quick to pick it up and throw the stumps down at the non-striker's end. He catches the batter short of the crease! He had just a little more than one stump to aim at, but hit the bulls-eye! 81/4
    Imad Wasim

    16.2 Short and wide and beats Imad's attempted ramp. And wait, Washington go up for a review! Did Imad nick that? Ultraedge shows a tiny spike as ball passes bat! And the Washington Freedom players share a laugh in their huddle. Imad Wasim walks away shaking his head as the Orcas lose another to Ferguson! He has three now 107/6
    Hammad Azam

    16.6 Ferguson has a fourth! Full on the stumps and Hammad misses a straight one! Up goes the finger immediately and Hammad walks. The NZ quick caps off an excellent spell with that wicket 110/7
    Harmeet Singh

    17.3 And the stumps light up! Cross-seam delivery on a length outside off that angles into the stumps. Harmeet looks for a hoick over the leg side and misses completely as the ball crashes into off stump. Netravalkar picks his second, Orcas lose their eighth 112/8

    18.5 Hits this low full toss straight to long-off. The bottom hand came off as he tried to go down the ground again, taking on a dipping low full toss. He doesn't get the distance as Ferguson makes no mistake in the deep 120/9

    19.4 And that will be that for the Orcas' innings! Back of a length cutter outside off again and Burger gets it off the high part of the bat as he looks to go downtown. Long-off takes it a few yards inside the rope. Netravalkar finishes with three. Washington need 125 to win! 124/10

    0.2 taken at point! Early strike. Was shorter outside off, Head went back to cut, couldn't keep it down and it went almost straight to the fielder. Perhaps done by a little extra bounce 0/1

    5.5 takes off stump! Huge wicket. Smith using his feet again, and giving himself some room to the leg side, looks to drive a back-of-a-length cross-seam ball and misses. Clips the top of off stump 43/3

    4.2 skied high in the air, taken at mid-off! Ravindra's fun is cut off. Short of a length outside off, was aiming straight down the ground, or perhaps even over the leg side, skewed from low down on the bat 34/2

    6.5 taken at cover, that was travelling! What a grab from Imad Wasim, think he's even surprised himself. Short of a length outside off, driven powerfully off the back foot and Imad grabs it one-handed to his left. Stunning 53/4
