- BATSMENRB4s6sSR9.1 taken at mid-off. Gleeson pulls one back. Slams this is in, short of a length, and hurries him as he backs away to try and pull. It's too quick for him and he can only slice it for Finch who is inside the circle 84/22.5 taken at point! Legcutter, it appears. Length ball, just outside off. Inglis tries to flick and closes the face too soon. Leading edge goes straight to Christian 20/113.5 holes out to deep midwicket. Slower short ball just outside off, backs away for the pull but that sticks in the pitch. He ends up dragging it high and it's an easy take 122/317.3 taken at short third. Short of a length legcutter just outside off. Backs away for the cut, gets a thick outside edge that floats gently for Gurney 156/417.5 quick reflexes in the follow through. Back of a length and pulled firmly back at him. Takes it in front of his stomach 158/519.1 full slower ball outside off, steps into line and drives aerially. Can't clear Cooper on his toes at long-on 175/619.6 full on leg stump, looks to pump that with a slog, it comes off the inside part of the bat and they try to sneak a second. But Jordan is caught short 196/7Extras5 (lb 1, w 4)TOTAL196/7 (20 Overs, RR: 9.8)Fall of wickets: 1-20 (Josh Inglis, 2.5 ov), 2-84 (Liam Livingstone, 9.1 ov), 3-122 (Cameron Bancroft, 13.5 ov), 4-156 (Ashton Turner, 17.3 ov), 5-158 (Ashton Agar, 17.5 ov), 6-175 (Cameron Green, 19.1 ov), 7-196 (Chris Jordan, 19.6 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR5.2 sliced straight to mid-on! Slower ball, short of a length at leg stump. Steps out and cramps himself on the pull. Can't clear Jordan with the mis-hit 51/24.1 drilled straight to extra cover! An overpitched ball, there for the taking. Finch clears the front leg and looks to go inside out. But it's an easy take at waist height 43/117.1 taken at long-off. Bold call to go to the spinner, especially one who spins the ball into the in-form left-hander. Ahmed too is brave enough to toss the ball up and that prompts Marsh to skip down the track, inadvertently getting too close to the ball. That reduces the power he can put on the ball and the rest is pretty much straightforward for Chris Jordan 156/48.2 through him! Arm ball and Cooper misses it. Length and slanted in from wide of the crease, exposes middle and off as he tries to drive through the covers. Misses it altogether 64/317.5 no way Jordan! Wow! That is stunning, just unreal. Ridiculous. It's a full flat ball at the stumps. He clears the front leg for the slog but the drift means it comes off the inside half of the bat. It's flat and powerful and dipping to long-on's right, but Jordan sprints and flies to his right, reaching out, holding on, and then casually sliding back up. Wow. 159/518.1 taken at long-on. Low full toss on leg stump, looks to go straight but that's off the low part of the bat. Taken easily at long-on, well in from the boundary 161/6Extras7 (lb 3, w 4)TOTAL185/6 (20 Overs, RR: 9.25)Fall of wickets: 1-43 (Aaron Finch, 4.1 ov), 2-51 (Sam Harper, 5.2 ov), 3-64 (Tom Cooper, 8.2 ov), 4-156 (Shaun Marsh, 17.1 ov), 5-159 (Dan Christian, 17.5 ov), 6-161 (Jack Wildermuth, 18.1 ov)
