- BATSMENRB4s6sSR7.4 skids one through on a length, Bryant looks to whip this square on the leg side but plays too early as the ball deflects onto the stumps off the right thigh. 76/113.2 uses the bowler's pace to steer this straight to short third man. Fawad fumbled but regained composure to take it on the second attempt. Good delivery by Sandhu, effort ball that cramped McCullum for room. 141/214.5 whips this straight to Green, who was stationed just a touch wider, closer to deep midwicket. This wasn't timed well, he ran in, maintained his composure and took this on the move. 155/314.6 appeal for lbw and he's gone. Cutting plays all around a full delivery that veered in from wide of the crease. Did he get some bat on it? Absolutely not. That would've crashed into middle and leg. Cutting has no reason to be disappointed. 155/415.2 top-edges a sweep straight to Sandhu at short fine. He takes an absolute dolly that he didn't have to move for. Renshaw deceived by the wrong'un as he went for a fierce sweep. Also looked a touch off balance. The momentum shifts completely. 155/515.5 what have you done? Done in by late drift, ended up chipping it straight to mid-off. Grand zero for Labuschagne, coming in to this game straight from the Sydney Test. 156/616.4 full, straight and gone. The slide continues. He stepped out to whip this full delivery, missed it altogether and gone. This is as plumb as it gets. Brisbane Heat have lost 5 wickets for 2 runs 157/718.1 deceived by this slower delivery, was through with the attempted lofted his early and chipped it straight to long-off. Heat in real danger of being bowled out after looking good to make 220 at one stage. 166/8Extras8 (lb 1, nb 2, w 5)TOTAL186/8 (20 Overs, RR: 9.3)Did not bat: Mujeeb Ur RahmanFall of wickets: 1-76 (Max Bryant, 7.4 ov), 2-141 (Brendon McCullum, 13.2 ov), 3-155 (Chris Lynn, 14.5 ov), 4-155 (Ben Cutting, 14.6 ov), 5-155 (Matt Renshaw, 15.2 ov), 6-156 (Marnus Labuschagne, 15.5 ov), 7-157 (James Pattinson, 16.4 ov), 8-166 (Brendan Doggett, 18.1 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR1.3 was an attempted mow across the line, missed it altogether as this length ball angled in to hit the pad. Struck right in front of middle and leg. This wasn't a difficult decision at all for the umpire. 5/14.6 he's hit this beautifully but picks out cover. This was travelling but Max Bryant moved to his left swiftly to pluck that 28/2Extras0TOTAL34/2 (5.3 Overs, RR: 6.18)Fall of wickets: 1-5 (Jos Buttler, 1.3 ov), 2-28 (Callum Ferguson, 4.6 ov)
