- BATSMENRB4s6sSR6.1 In the airrrr.... And taken! Starts the over with a short pitched ball around the off stump, Mayers plays the swivel pull shot and chips it in the air towards backward point, two fielders converging, wicketkeeper and the point fielder, both fielders called for the catch, the point fielder gets to the ball first and gobbles it up, nearly colliding with the keeper due to a miscommunication. But all worked out in the end; the catch was successfully executed and they avoided a collision. 66/25.2 Soft dismissal! A harmless fuller length pitching wide outside off, Warner clears his front leg and attempts to slice it over point area, only managed to clip it straight into the safe hands of Pienaar at deep extra cover 60/110.2 Taylor departs! Hard line and length ball darted on middle-leg, strides forward and plays across the line of the ball, clips it aerially in the air off the leading edge of the bat, easy pickings for Glenn Phillips at long off 95/49.6 Klaasen has holed out! Another slower delivery, pitching outside off and stayed low on the track, Klaasen reaches for the widish length ball and swings it away, did not get enough power or elevation to clear the ropes, finds the sweeper fielder at deep backward square leg area 95/313.3 Slower ball does the trick, again! Another back of the hand delivery around the fifth stump line, Jones charges down the track early and swings his bat at it, miscued the heave stroke and skies it high to long on area, Phillips settles underneath and completes the catch 110/519.6 widish fuller length ball, hangs back and opens the face of the bat, drills it away aerially but failed to find the gap, backward point fielder completes the catch and Raza's misery with the bat comes to an end 145/913.5 You can't keep Holland out of the game today! Picks up his third wicket of the match, bowls a leg-cutter delivery, pitching it up outside off and inviting the batter to go against the line of the ball, Harmeet Singh decides to go for the big heave and in the end plays a nothing shot, chips it in the air to mid-off inside the ring 110/615.2 edged and taken behind the stumps! Pace on delivery with a bit of shape away from the batter pitching well outside off, Gannon throws his bat at it, finds the faint outside edge and Gous makes no mistake 120/717.2 short of a good length ball on the stumps, moves forward and negates it straight to short mid wicket, Owen has a go at the stumps and hits the timber. Square leg umpire sends it upstairs for another check. That seems like Jasdeep is short of his ground, he could have done better though, was a tad slow while returning back to the crease. Excellent bullet throw by Owen and the Orcas lose their 8th wicket. 132/8Extras11 (b 1, lb 5, w 5)TOTAL145/9 (20 Overs, RR: 7.25)Did not bat: Waqar SalamkheilFall of wickets: 1-60 (David Warner, 5.2 ov), 2-66 (Kyle Mayers, 6.1 ov), 3-95 (Heinrich Klaasen, 9.6 ov), 4-95 (Steven Taylor, 10.2 ov), 5-110 (Aaron Jones, 13.3 ov), 6-110 (Harmeet Singh, 13.5 ov), 7-120 (Cameron Gannon, 15.2 ov), 8-132 (Jasdeep Singh, 17.2 ov), 9-145 (Sikandar Raza, 19.6 ov)
