- BATSMENRB4s6sSR8.2 holes out to deep midwicket and Salt is gone! Pope has delivered some better balls this season. This was a half-tracker and Salt rocked back to pull it for six but found Vince in the deep who did well to not go over the rope in the end 71/21.6 a leading edge and this time caught at third man! On the pads, I think Bird rolled his fingers over that one and Weatherald flicked on leg but got the timing completely wrong and the top edge hung in the air for enough time for third man to get under it 24/19.1 leg stump goes for a walk! Alex Carey has not looked great today, no doubt about that, and he made room yet again to smash that away but Hazlewood was accurate there to pitch it on length and hit top of leg 78/313.5 finds long-off this time, White holes out in the hunt of the third six! A very scratchy innings comes to an end. White had to go big this over after the time out, he did get two sixes and on the third attempt he couldn't get the distance like earlier. Edwards stayed steady at long off to pouch that with the reverse cup 109/413.6 has a misfield resulted in a run out there?! Wells flicked the fullish delivery to the square leg region, two fielders ran in and Short slipped just after turning, saying no for the second, but then the batsmen see a misfield in the deep and they do decide to go for the second, but a turn of decision again and Short has to come back! Puts in a dive and it isn't enough. Replays checking if the ball came out of the keeper's gloves before the stumps were broken, it's very very tight. Maybe the ball was marginally out of the gloves when the zing bails lit up with the impact of the gloves 110/518.4 targets the leg side again, and this time Vince takes a sharp catch at deep backward square leg! A nice cameo comes to an end. Flicked the full delivery to the leg side again, this one went behind square and Vince took a few quick steps to his right and got both hands to it 159/6Extras10 (lb 7, w 3)TOTAL176/6 (20 Overs, RR: 8.8)Fall of wickets: 1-24 (Jake Weatherald, 1.6 ov), 2-71 (Phil Salt, 8.2 ov), 3-78 (Alex Carey, 9.1 ov), 4-109 (Cameron White, 13.5 ov), 5-110 (Matthew Short, 13.6 ov), 6-159 (Michael Neser, 18.4 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR8.3 many a catches put down today off leading edges, but the keeper Alex Carey gets under this one to break the opening stand. Avendano has missed a fifty but he's done his job here. Went across to off and tried a rare shot across the line, got a leading edge and the keeper ran towards backward point to pouch it 72/114.4 sweeps and finds deep midwicket! Rashid has got the breakthrough here. Hughes saw the delivery outside off and went for a flat sweep but it wasn't big enough to clear the fielder who was a few yards inside the boundary 123/217.5 excellent catch at sweeper cover from Rashid, he completes it and signals out! High full toss on off, flat-batted by Vince on the off side and Rashid tumbled forward for what's a clean catch, replays confirm. Hang on, the umpires are checking for a no ball, and Siddle has juuust something behind the crease for a legal delivery. The umpire also checking the catch, it looks clean, and now checking the height of the full toss, that's well below the waist 151/3Extras3 (lb 1, nb 1, w 1)TOTAL180/3 (19.3 Overs, RR: 9.23)Fall of wickets: 1-72 (Justin Avendano, 8.3 ov), 2-123 (Daniel Hughes, 14.4 ov), 3-151 (James Vince, 17.5 ov)
