    2.2 Another full-delivery and he tries to get underneath it, was an off-cutter, he mistimes it and miscues the skier, pouched at long-off, fielder takes a few steps back, it's Maxwell, who is safe as a house, doesn't shell the regulation catch, hangs onto it safely and Freedom draw first blood, didn't offer the pace he was looking for 28/1
    17.1 Phillips seldom drop those, swallowed down his throat at long-on, didn't sound good when it connected, was shortish at him, he targets downtown, hits high on the bat, maybe got a bit tired, raises his bat to the gallery and soaks in a log of applause, incredible display of power-hitting, was an energy-sapping innings, he has a stern and resolute look on his face, thorough professional, played a gem of a innings! 232/5
    5.2 Good length and nagging off-stump line, clears front leg and tries to slam it down the ground but ends up getting a healthy edge and is taken in the slip cordon, not the start he would have liked but long way to go 65/2
    11.3 Shorter in length, ball smiles and deviates a touch outside off, targets the boundary down the ground, smeared into the hands of the fielder, Maxwell, art long-off who safely reverse cups and Sanjay has to take the long walk back to the pavilion, been an entertaining knock, he helped lay a solid foundation and showed a bold statement of intent rightaway 153/3
    14.3 Disturbs the furniture, hard length and holds it's line, perhaps a slight inward nibble from middle, he wanted to target square leg, didn't pick the line and the ball hits the top of middle, well it did jag back in just enough to beat his ambitious swing, terrific delivery 196/4

    6.4 Massive communication breakdown and Owen has to go, that's such an untimely dismissal for WSF; wide full-toss slammed to backward point and he kept running down the ground, non-striker wasn't really interested, fielder fires an accurate throw and keeper does the rest in a jiffy 97/2
    5.2 Steps leg-side and he follows him with a superbly directed-short one, he remains committed to the pull and hasn't got the distance, gobbled while jumping in the air by Fraser-McGurk, hangs onto it terrifically; crucial breakthrough 80/1
    8.6 Bit short and outside off, quite far away from him, he goes hard at it and throws his bat, a waft and the outside edge goes straight into the hands of the fielder at squarer short third, wickets continue to tumble, chaos all the way, that's what scoreboard pressure can do 113/6
    7.3 Prolonged appeal for an lbw, good length and jagged in a touch, hits the front pad, looks close and the umpire doesn't hesitate to raise the finger. Review taken and he needs luck to reverse it. Hitting leg-stump and stays out, three reds on the big screen. Was a beautifully executed off-cutter, he gets his Melbourne Stars teammate early in the piece 109/3
    7.6 Phillips bids adieu, sent packing! What a sight for Haris Rauf, through the gate from over the wicket, too quick and hostile for the Kiwi, gone without bothering the scorers. Hard length and nipped in a touch, too hot to handle for him 109/4
    8.3 Given plenty of flight and he deceives him, took the bait, went big downtown, knew he mistimed it and is taken by Bartlett at long-on, vigorous shake of the head in dismay but he has to go, the chase is derailed 112/5
    9.3 Edged and taken! Fraction short with a hint of wobble outside off, leg-cutter, tries to steer it behind and ends up playing straight into the hands of the keeper 115/7
    9.5 Purposefully cranks up the pace and ruffles him with a short of a length delivery on an irksome off-stump line, goes feebishly as if he is coaxed into playing that one and ends up getting a faint nick to the keeper, been a meek surrender after a superb powerplay 117/8
    10.5 Runs out of his luck. Drags short and spins it across him, goes down for a slog sweep, in the air for a while and then gobbled by the fielder at wide long-on, it's been a procession 125/9

    13.1 Can he finish the job in this over? Yes, he can. Curling it back after hitting a shorter length at 90mph and gets the seam movement, inside-edge to the keeper, his feet got stuck. Haris has been the star of the show, regaled us with his pace and aggressive bowling 146/10
