10.08 pm Scorchers with a mostly sedate innings barring a few lusty blows towards the end from Agar. Logic says Thunder are favorites after Sandhu's hat-trick, but Scorchers have been wily vets at defending these types of seemingly below-par totals. Stay with us for the start of the chase shortly.

Mahmood to Agar, 1 run, dropped! Another slower ball on the stumps on a good length, goes for another heave but skies a top edge into short midwicket as the bat flies out of Agar's hands. Mahmood charges left and makes the ground but the ball slips through his fingertips lunging forward. Should've been held. 6/10 on difficulty but the hard part was getting to the ball and he did that fairly easily.
