- BATSMENRB4s6sSR5.5 Hetmyer takes an absolute gem of a catch sprinting back at long-on, bat turned as he tried to flog him downtown. Jasdeep roars in delight and it's a big wicket, it was tad short and midriff height, couldn't control his bat swing 42/118.6 goes full and angles into the toes, works it away to deep midwicket, hustles and busltes for the second and makes it easily, du Plessis is going off for some reason, wants someone else to go berserk, perhaps ran out of gas and thinks someone else could do a better job 181/37.1 over the wicket, shorter in length and angling into middle, chopped towards cover and he takes a few steps down the pitch and then yells no but by then Mukkamalla's fate was decided, a sharp direct hit at non-striker hit does the work, he was struggling and had no chance to get back 49/219.5 pace-off hard length delivery right at the stumps and he is early through the pull, seems the stumps being shattered and zingers flying everywhere, was a cunning off cutter and it did the trick 186/4Extras8 (lb 4, w 4)TOTAL188/4 (20 Overs, RR: 9.4)Fall of wickets: 1-42 (Smit Patel, 5.5 ov), 2-49 (Saiteja Mukkamalla, 7.1 ov), 3-181 (Faf du Plessis, 18.6 ov), 4-186 (Donovan Ferreira, 19.5 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR7.4 length delivery going across off, rocks back and tries to go big downtown, was an arm ball, didn't get the requisite power and the sweet spot, taken at long-on, big breakthrough. ball was in the hitting arc though 52/34.2 gets the big fish, slung down full and the ball jags back in just enough to beat his ambitious swing directed towards midwicket, hits the base of the stumps and Warner has to take the long walk back to the pavilion. superb delivery 29/14.5 one slip in place, what a stunning grab by Zia at deep third, superb sliding catch! Was a sharp bumper delivery around the line off, tries an upper cut but finds the fielder, gone without troubling the scorers. Zia charged in, swooped to his right and took a stunning tumbling catch 29/210.6 down on one knee and tries a slog sweep, gets an outside edge and gets caught at short third, he had to switch gears, missed the slog sweep 73/413.3 quicker and fuller just outside off, he had to go and he does but can't clear man at long-on and the celebrations are wild, they have got the man in form out of the equation. Hossain is on cloud 9, Ferreira takes an absolute blinder near the rope, timing his jump to perfection. ball was quite far away from off, he almost cleared the fence, but fielder jumped full stretch at the perfect timing 95/612.1 On a length and turns back viciously from outside off, gets low to cut and gets a faint edge that is gobbled by Smit, huge breakthrough! 91/518.1 over the wicket, hits the deck hard and keeps it on a nettlesome off-stump line, loses his shape as he tries to pull it to the leg side, gets a top-edge which is taken splendidly by the keeper. bread basket catch 136/814.6 Ferriera has been a livewire on the field tonight, takes another superb running high catch, was out of hitting arc and he finds the man to perfection 119/718.4 That is all she said. Thumps it into the deck and cranks up the pace, the ball leaps alarmingly at him and he swings the bat, hoping it would clear the fence but instead it goes straight into the hands of the fielder at short fine, reverse cupped, batter was backing away. Milne with a stellar bowling performance, was a complete spell 137/1018.2 rattles the stumps! keeps getting worse for Orcas, bowls a toe-crusher and he can't jam his bat down in time, stumps askew and he has to go back to the hut. All smiles for Milne and his teammates. Can he finish it off? He is on a hattrick 136/9Extras7 (lb 2, nb 1, w 4)TOTAL137 all out (18.4 Overs, RR: 7.33)Fall of wickets: 1-29 (David Warner, 4.2 ov), 2-29 (Shayan Jahangir, 4.5 ov), 3-52 (Kyle Mayers, 7.4 ov), 4-73 (Aaron Jones, 10.6 ov), 5-91 (Heinrich Klaasen, 12.1 ov), 6-95 (Shimron Hetmyer, 13.3 ov), 7-119 (Harmeet Singh, 14.6 ov), 8-136 (Sikandar Raza, 18.1 ov), 9-136 (Cameron Gannon, 18.2 ov), 10-137 (Bjorn Fortuin, 18.4 ov)
