Adelaide Strikers fall just short of 200, but that's a hefty total in 18 overs. Superb stuff from the top order, led by Weatherald and Carey who both hit the ball beautifully. Tough for the bowlers with the rain making things skiddy but they weren't at their best. I'll be back in a few minutes. The DLS target is also 199, so no change. Don't ask me!

Richardson to White, 1 run, short, down the leg side, gets inside the line and hooks to long leg and it's just the single. Excellent final over

Richardson to Wells, 1 run, a yorker at middle and leg, dug out to long-on

Ezzat Muhseni: "This score is more than enough for Rashid Khan to defend :)"

Richardson to White, 1 run, a slower ball, back of a length, pushed unconvincingly to the off side

Richardson to Wells, 1 run, dropped at mid-off! And it's Agar. Driven on the up, it's above his head but he gets that completely wrong. Oops

Well, we have a very late for the third umpire here to have a look at the boundary catch. And it stays out. As you were...

Richardson to Carey, OUT, that's brilliantly judged on the rope! Round the wicket, nicely into the hitting arc, he swings through the line but doesn't quite get the distance as Agar gets it inch perfect at long-on

Jordan to Carey, FOUR, the off side again! A low full toss, he clears the front leg and pings this drive so well the ball disappears in a flash

It was 20 balls from Lynn last night, 21 from Carey tonight
