- BATSMENRB4s6sSR10.1 great catch at backward point! Can that turn things around? It's full outside off, Maddinson slices his drive in the air, Milenko throws himself to his right and gets two hands to it 81/113.3 and he gets his revenge! Drags the length back, fires it through a touch quicker, Dunk gives himself some room to go into the off side and misses 118/214.1 taken at third man, brilliant catch from Qais! They are going to check this, Qais has claimed the catch for certain. It was swung powerfully off the top edge. Soft signal is not out! Qais made a lot of ground forward, got low, it seems to have gone in cleanly from the side on angle. The soft signal will be vital here. Third umpire says fingers are under the ball and it's out 122/315 through him! A big impact over from Meredith. Good length on off stump, just seems to beat him for pace, maybe trying to angle it down to third man 127/4Extras5 (b 1, lb 1, nb 2, w 1)TOTAL163/4 (20 Overs, RR: 8.15)Fall of wickets: 1-81 (Nic Maddinson, 10.1 ov), 2-118 (Ben Dunk, 13.3 ov), 3-122 (Glenn Maxwell, 14.1 ov), 4-127 (Peter Handscomb, 14.6 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR3.4 picks out backward square leg! A long hop gets a wicket. Short from round the wicket, Short pulls and couldn't have found out Worrall any better 30/18.2 super catch at deep square! Sweeps a very full delivery, gets a big top edge, Hinchcliffe running in and does brilliantly to dive forward. Would have been so easy for that to pop out. He did very well. Stars all over the Hurricanes 57/44.2 finds midwicket! A short ball on off stump, it's pulled crisply but again the fielder barely had to move to make the catch. Rauf is pumped, screaming at the batsman! 35/25.5 down the pitch and a big heave! Huge wicket. That's a poor choice, he charged down the track, swiped across the line and lost his shape 44/310.1 short again, and gloved this time! Banged in on leg stump, almost a carbon copy of the ball before as he goes for the pull and this time there's a touch on it. Well, they are checking for height here. The first ball of the over was signalled the one for the over. And he's been confirmed as out. Just below shoulder height. 62/69.2 now he's through him! Straighter delivery, skids on, he's playing back and it clips the pads into the stumps. Don't think he was picking Zampa 59/510.4 cleaned him up! This is some quality fast bowling. It was full, 147kph, and Rogers didn't know much about it. Who needs Dale Steyn? 63/714.2 done him with the slower ball and he has five! What a day he has had. That's a lovely piece of bowling. Sends down the slower one, Ellis gave himself room and missed 98/911 and another, off stump goes flying! Fantastic stuff from Rauf, he's already having a BBL to remember. This is a length ball, nips back a touch, and another batsman is done for pace 64/816 that's it, all over, as he has a big swing to the leg side, gets beaten on the inside edge and that's a swift piece of glovework from Handscomb 111/10Extras7 (lb 2, w 5)TOTAL111 all out (16 Overs, RR: 6.93)Fall of wickets: 1-30 (D'Arcy Short, 3.4 ov), 2-35 (Ben McDermott, 4.2 ov), 3-44 (David Miller, 5.5 ov), 4-57 (Caleb Jewell, 8.2 ov), 5-59 (Simon Milenko, 9.2 ov), 6-62 (Macalister Wright, 10.1 ov), 7-63 (Tom Rogers, 10.4 ov), 8-64 (Qais Ahmad, 10.6 ov), 9-98 (Nathan Ellis, 14.2 ov), 10-111 (Riley Meredith, 15.6 ov)
