- BATSMENRB4s6sSR0.2 caught at mid off! The experiment fails! Back of a length, he backed away and tried to flat bat down the ground. It got onto quicker than expected, he miscues, slicing it towards mid off, Jordan runs forward and takes an excellent diving catch coming forward 0/115.5 caught at deep midwicket! Undone by the slower ball. He delivered this way wide of off, Finch sat deep in the crease to launch over long on, he reached out and toed it high to deep midwicket, it falls short of the rope and Green takes the catch comfortably 116/42.1 bowled him! He stepped too far outside off and lost his leg stump! Harper moved across early, Sandhu delivered a 134kph length ball angled to leg stump, it was there to flick over the leg side but missed and it crashed into the top of leg! 12/28.6 caught at cover! Picked out cover with a drive that he didn't get over the top of! It was well flighted outside off, he drives hard but his body weight is back, he hits it in the air and it just carries to Devcich at cover. He takes a good low catch. 51/317.6 caught at cover! Slower ball completely deceives him. It was 115kph, shorter length wide of off, it stops in the surface, he checks the shot and chips this high to cover, Watson is on the circle and just shuffles back to take the catch. 139/617.5 caught at deep point! Slower ball cutter wide of off, he sliced a square drive high in the air to deep point, Sangha is there and it takes the catch very low to the ground 139/518.5 caught behind! Brilliant from Sandhu. 131kph, short ball, beat him for pace after the slower ball, he tried to pull, feathered an edge and Lenton takes the catch. 144/719.6 Run Out! Confusion between the batsmen. Harvey stepped inside the line to paddle sweep fine, he missed, it just missed leg stump. Richardson ran for a bye but Harvey wasn't paying attention, they end up next to each other, Lenton throws it Jordan and Harvey is run out by a mile. 152/919.3 Bowled him! 138kph, yorker, way too good! Just fired in at the base of off stump, too quick for Tremain and it lights up the stumps. 149/8Extras6 (lb 3, w 3)TOTAL152/9 (20 Overs, RR: 7.6)Did not bat: HF GurneyFall of wickets: 1-0 (Cameron Boyce, 0.2 ov), 2-12 (Sam Harper, 2.1 ov), 3-51 (Tom Cooper, 8.6 ov), 4-116 (Aaron Finch, 15.5 ov), 5-139 (Dan Christian, 17.5 ov), 6-139 (Cameron White, 17.6 ov), 7-144 (Mohammad Nabi, 18.5 ov), 8-149 (Chris Tremain, 19.3 ov), 9-152 (Mackenzie Harvey, 19.6 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR0.3 caught at third man! Short and wide, he reaches out to cut, gets a thick top edge, it flies straight to third man and Boyce takes a few steps in and takes a simple catch! 0/13.1 caught at cover! Gurney gets the key scalp of Watson! 114kph slower ball cutter, Watson climbs into a cover-drive, hits it head high straight to Finch who takes the catch infront of his chest at cover! He loves it too! 23/212.4 caught at long on! Superb catch from Christian! It was tossed up and he tried to loft this over long on, he gets a good piece of it, it carries a long way, Christian is right on the rope, he jumps up and takes the catch above his head! Like an outfielder robbing a home run in baseball! 87/315.1 caught at long on! Slower ball does it! Good length slower ball wide outside off, so hard for Green to generate the pace from out there, he swings this flat and hard to long on and Christian runs forward and takes another excellent catch 103/416.2 caught at deep midwicket! Shorter ball banged in, it comes off the surface a touch slower, he pulls hard and high but not long enough to clear the deep midwicket boundary, Harvey is right back on the rope and takes a good catch. 107/5Extras4 (lb 2, w 2)TOTAL140/5 (20 Overs, RR: 7)Fall of wickets: 1-0 (Anton Devcich, 0.3 ov), 2-23 (Shane Watson, 3.1 ov), 3-87 (Callum Ferguson, 12.4 ov), 4-103 (Chris Green, 15.1 ov), 5-107 (Daniel Sams, 16.2 ov)
