- BATSMENRB4s6sSR2.6 Billings takes another sky ball! Roy charged and backed away, Doggett banged it in short but he rolled the fingers on it, Roy was deceived and got a top edge that flew straight up, Billings took this comfortably again 18/22.1 towering sky ball, Billings is cool, calm and collected under it and takes it easily! A length ball, he tried to launch over midwicket, he got under it and middled it but it went straight up, Billings was under it for what felt like 10 seconds, but he was very calm and made a difficult catch look exceptionally easy 12/117.4 caught behind! A wide length ball, he cleared the front leg with his weight going to the leg side, he had to reach a long way, it was nearly a wide, he got a thin edge and it was a simple catch for Billings 154/69.4 Bowled him! Inglis gives room and loses his middle stump! Doggett delivered full and straight, Inglis backed away too far and missed it and it clattered into the top of middle and leg 61/312.3 cut straight to backward point! Doggett has all four! Slower ball wide of off, it sat up and was there to be hammered but Marsh didn't get over the top of it, and he hit it straight at Green at backward point. Simple catch 86/416.1 lap scoop caught by Sangha running back! Turner got outside off, executed the lap scoop pretty well to a length ball, maybe didn't get it quite out of the middle and it was a slower pace ball, but Sangha ran back very quickly from short fine, made a lot of ground and took the catch very well 141/5Extras13 (lb 10, w 3)TOTAL185/6 (20 Overs, RR: 9.25)Fall of wickets: 1-12 (Liam Livingstone, 2.1 ov), 2-18 (Jason Roy, 2.6 ov), 3-61 (Josh Inglis, 9.4 ov), 4-86 (Mitchell Marsh, 12.3 ov), 5-141 (Ashton Turner, 16.1 ov), 6-154 (Colin Munro, 17.4 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR2.4 top edge straight up and Inglis takes it! A length ball, outside off, no one was back infront of square on the leg side after the repeated scoops, he tried to heave a length ball across the line, got a top edge that went straight up towards short third man, Inglis got under it and took it well 30/15.5 holes out to deep point! Poor execution! Short and wide, but he needed to be aware the man was out there at deep point and he just lofted it straight down his throat. He didn't nail it or try and place it away from him 45/33.3 a miscue to mid on! Surprised by the bounce! It was a high short ball angled across him, he tried to pull and got it off the toe end of the bat and it just lobbed to mid on. Easy catch for AJ Tye 30/218.3 Off the pad onto the stumps! He tried to lap sweep again, it was a full yorker outside off, he missed it, it hit the left pad and deflected onto the stumps. Billings couldn't believe it 162/85.6 crazy run out! A huge mix up. Billings tucked it off the hip to the square leg umpire and called two but Behrendorff raced across to field, Billings called yes and then no and Ross was sold up the river, Behrendorff's throw was awkward, Inglis fumbled it up in the air and then batted it down handball style onto the stumps! Ross was still miles out. 46/414.4 caught at deep point! Short wide bouncer, he could have got this over backward point but he upper cut forward of point where the man is placed in the deep and Livingstone takes the catch 129/515.2 lofted straight to deep midwicket! Full in the slot on leg stump, he lofted straight through the line and got it out of the screws but straight to Livingstone on the rope at deep midwicket and it's another relatively comfortable catch 134/617.4 holes out to deep cover-point! It was half volley outside off, he cleared the front leg and lofted it high to deep cover-point where Bancroft is posted and he takes the catch easily 155/719.2 caught at fine leg! Fawad Ahmed takes the catch. A bouncer at the body, he tried to pull and got a top edge that carried all the way to fine leg and Fawad holds on 164/919.6 bowled him! Superb 140kph yorker to finish it. Not many players are keeping that out but he backed away and missed it by a mile. 168/10Extras6 (b 1, lb 2, w 3)TOTAL168 all out (20 Overs, RR: 8.4)Fall of wickets: 1-30 (Usman Khawaja, 2.4 ov), 2-30 (Callum Ferguson, 3.3 ov), 3-45 (Alex Hales, 5.5 ov), 4-46 (Alex Ross, 5.6 ov), 5-129 (Ben Cutting, 14.4 ov), 6-134 (Nathan McAndrew, 15.2 ov), 7-155 (Chris Green, 17.4 ov), 8-162 (Sam Billings, 18.3 ov), 9-164 (Adam Milne, 19.2 ov), 10-168 (Brendan Doggett, 19.6 ov)
