- BATSMENRB4s6sSR7.2 finally the onslaught ends thanks to super work from Bancroft charging in from long-on. Poor ball, drag down into the pitch on middle stump, tries to back away to slap at this awkwardly to go straight instead of squarer over the leg side and it climbs high off the bat, Bancroft has about 25 meters to cover charging in from the rope but lunges forward in stride to take an outstanding catch at shin height. 71/19.5 Agar is pumped! Quicker ball lands flat on a good length on fourth stump, Salt tries to tap and run into cover but forgets to hit the ball and runs straight past this. Simple stumping for Inglis and Salt immediately throws his hands over his head knowing he's thrown away a sure hundred on a flat deck. 97/219.1 full and wide, Head flails at this taking a step back from leg, horribly off balance trying to flail for any bat on this to get runs and instead a thick edge goes through easily to Inglis. 173/414.2 short ball on the body follows Carey backing away to leg, cramped trying to adjust into a ball when he had intended to cut, goes off the gloves and balloons high to Inglis for a simple catch behind the stumps. 139/319.6 bouncer on the stumps, top edged hook sails to deep fine leg, Turner misreads it initially staying on the rope before he charges forward and takes a sharp catch lunging forward 15 meters in from the rope. 181/5Extras3 (b 1, lb 1, nb 1)TOTAL181/5 (20 Overs, RR: 9.05)Fall of wickets: 1-71 (Jake Weatherald, 7.2 ov), 2-97 (Phil Salt, 9.5 ov), 3-139 (Alex Carey, 14.2 ov), 4-173 (Travis Head, 19.1 ov), 5-181 (Rashid Khan, 19.6 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR3.2 full on the stumps, tried to drive this over mid-on but it comes off the splice of the bat and floats to mid-off for a simple catch at waist height. 17/115.1 Livingstone's knock comes to an end flubbing this pull to deep midwicket. Agar bangs this in at 138 kph and Livingstone tries to clear the man on the rope but doesn't time this well at all, taken 10 yards in from the boundary at chest height. That will just about kill the chances of the home side to chase this. 115/58.3 fullish length in the channel on fourth stump at 150 kph, too much heat for Patterson, who was scratchy throughout and a thick edge taken easily behind by Carey. 66/211.4 short on the legs, hammers a pull flat but picks out deep fine leg. Stanlake takes this catch at chest height two yards in from the rope. Didn't move an inch. 10 yards to his left or right and it's six. 87/312.5 screamer by Carey! Bowled full and wide outside off, Turner tries to scoop this over short fine leg, gets underneath it too much and it balloons high to Carey's left. The keeper runs back 20 meters and puts in a full length dive to claim this inches from the ground, in the process avoiding short fine leg charging in. 10/10 from the Russian, the French, the Swiss, the Australian, the English and the American judges! 92/417.6 full and wide again, this time tries to drive with the turn, gets the elevation but not the distance and Neser takes a simple catch at chest height three yards in from the rope at long-off. 133/619.2 yorker angled into Jordan backing away, caroms off Jordan's toes back into the stumps. Scorchers really limping to the end here. 149/7Extras9 (lb 3, w 6)TOTAL165/7 (20 Overs, RR: 8.25)Fall of wickets: 1-17 (Josh Inglis, 3.2 ov), 2-66 (Kurtis Patterson, 8.3 ov), 3-87 (Mitchell Marsh, 11.4 ov), 4-92 (Ashton Turner, 12.5 ov), 5-115 (Liam Livingstone, 15.1 ov), 6-133 (Cameron Bancroft, 17.6 ov), 7-149 (Chris Jordan, 19.2 ov)
