- BATSMENRB4s6sSR7.4 top edge straight up caught by Philippe! It was just short of a length, he tried to pull over midwicket, it wasn't short enough, he gets a top edge straight, Philippe moves to his right and nervously stands under it and holds on! He has dropped a couple of sky balls in this tournament but he got that one. 49/22.4 caught at deep square! It was a back of a length ball on the hip, he flicks this off the hip high in the air to the long boundary but not long enough, Pope is out there and he takes the catch 15m off the rope 21/112.4 caught at wide long off! He looped this outside off, slower and wider, Handscomb advanced early and went leg side, he had to reach out and chip this but didn't hit it far enough or wide enough of Vince running around from long off and he takes a good catch 81/319.6 skied straight up and Henriques runs in and takes it! It was full in the slot again, he got under this though and hit it straight up, they ran two while it was in the air, Henriques takes the catch running in from mid off to save two runs. 168/615.6 caught at deep square leg! It was full and on leg stump, he whips this with the bottom hand in the air straight to deep forward square and Abbott is there to take the simple catch 101/416.5 run out! Bravo slipped and lost his footing coming back for two! Maxwell knocked this to the gap at wide long on again and called two. There was an easy two in it, but Bravo tripped over on the way back, lost his bat halfway down, he got up without a bat and dived but was well short when Lyon took the bails off! 116/5Extras2 (w 2)TOTAL168/6 (20 Overs, RR: 8.4)Fall of wickets: 1-21 (Ben Dunk, 2.4 ov), 2-49 (Marcus Stoinis, 7.4 ov), 3-81 (Peter Handscomb, 12.4 ov), 4-101 (Nic Maddinson, 15.6 ov), 5-116 (Dwayne Bravo, 16.5 ov), 6-168 (Glenn Maxwell, 19.6 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR4.2 caught at cover! Slower ball off cutter outside off, he doesn't pick it, plays a lazy drive hitting it in the air to Stoinis at cover. He jumps up and takes the catch above his head! 34/41.5 caught by Bravo running back from mid on! A short ball does the trick! He tried to pull this over midwicket, he scooped it, mistiming it high and wide of mid on, Bravo runs a long way back and to his right and takes a good catch 14/12.5 caught at mid off! Back of a length outside off, he hangs back and gives room, trying to slap this over mid off, he miscues and it just balloons to DJ Bravo on the circle. Easy catch 25/23.6 caught at short third man! Shorter ball, he went back and tried to hammer a pull shot, he sliced a top edge that floats to short third man and Sandeep is there to take the easy catch! 32/36.3 Stumped! Silk reaches out to drive at a leg break outside off, he missed, he dragged his back foot out, Handscomb whipped the bails off and Silk didn't get his back foot back! The TV umpire double checks but it's out! 46/57.5 LBW! The wrong un gets him! He didn't pick it. It was a good length, ripped back, hit the front pad infront of off. The umpire took his time but gives it out! It looked pretty good to go on and hit leg stump! 50/68.2 caught at slip! Maxwell with a screamer! Incredible. Shorter leg break, not that wide, he gives room, it hurries him as he cuts, gets a thick edge, it flies to Maxwell quickly, he sticks his left hand out, it hits the left hands, bobbles into the right and he holds on! Wow. He had no time to react. Brilliant from the skipper 50/711.4 caught at slip! Magnificent from Sandeep! This is a spectacular wrong un, tossed up on off, Dwarshuis thinks it's a leg break, he drives hard, it spins away, catches the edge and Maxwell takes the easy catch 65/812.1 Lyon is run out pushing for three! Oh no! Short drag down, he's back pulling this off the bottom edge to fine leg, Sandeep runs a long way around to make the save, they push for three, Lyon is struggling, he dives, the bat bounces short of the line, his bat is over the line but in the air when Handscomb takes the bails off! Another horror dismissal! 67/913.4 caught at cover! Tossed up on off, he just chips a drive straight to cover and the catch is taken easily! The Stars pull off a stunning performance! 74/10Extras5 (b 1, lb 2, w 2)TOTAL74 all out (13.4 Overs, RR: 5.41)Fall of wickets: 1-14 (Josh Philippe, 1.5 ov), 2-25 (James Vince, 2.5 ov), 3-32 (Moises Henriques, 3.6 ov), 4-34 (Daniel Hughes, 4.2 ov), 5-46 (Jordan Silk, 6.3 ov), 6-50 (Tom Curran, 7.5 ov), 7-50 (Sean Abbott, 8.2 ov), 8-65 (Ben Dwarshuis, 11.4 ov), 9-67 (Nathan Lyon, 12.1 ov), 10-74 (Lloyd Pope, 13.4 ov)
