7.10pm First blood to Sunrisers. Runs on the board in a final is a big part of the battle won, and that's a lot of them. Markram and Stubbs add 98 from 55 balls after both set batters fell in the same Maharaj over. Abell nailed his scoops in a 30-ball fifty, and Hermann played a key role too. What might have been if that Maharaj catch had been given, however...

Jordan Hermann: "Tried to get the team off to a solid start. Any score in the final is defendable, just got to back our bowlers and plans. A good surface, but if any bowlers can exploit it, it's our bowlers. I back them all the way."

Naveen-ul-Haq to Stubbs, 1 run, another big swing, very full from Naveen and under-edged through to the keeper. One more single to the total, and that's the end of a very imposing first innings from the defending champions

Naveen-ul-Haq to Stubbs, FOUR, back of a length, wide line, there's the 200! It's a fifty for Stubbs as well. Toe-ended down the ground, but mid-off is up, so safe as houses

Topley to Stubbs, SIX, mashed into the stands! A cross-batted pick-up to finish Topley's spell in style. A juggling take in the crowd, it's grabbed one-handed in the end, but via a ricochet
18.5
1
Topley to Markram, 1 run, reverse-reverse! Markram inverts his stance, attempts the reverse-paddle through deep third, and instead thwacks it off the back of his bat, just short of short fine leg!

6
Topley to Stubbs, SIX, pace off, and blatted over midwicket! Stubbs sits deep in the crease, picks the drag-down, and launches it!

Arjun: "Why Topley is not bowling into the death overs of a final match." Seems odd to leave him underused, but he's back now

Dala to Stubbs, 1 run, bouncer, good finish to a tough over, Stubbs wears it on the shoulder as they scamper the single. 20 off the over, and now 200 is firmly in their sights
17.5
2
Dala to Stubbs, 2 runs, another big wind-up on the pull to deep midwicket. Doesn't connect perfectly, but finds the gap to come back for two
17.4

Dala to Stubbs, SIX, premeditated and dispatched! Stubbs steps across to the off side, long before Dala is into his delivery stride, and hoists the ball high over the keeper, trusting his eye as the ball stays on a good length

Dala to Markram, 1 run, banged in short, cut out into the covers
