- BATSMENRB4s6sSR11.1 caught at deep midwicket. The ball was there to be hit, but Livingstone didn't get the placement right. Dragged short by Swepson, and he rocked back, essayed a flat pull with decent connection, but Labuschagne at the boundary holds on. The Livingstone Entertainment show is over and the Heat can breathe more freely 114/1Extras5 (w 5)TOTAL189/1 (18.1 Overs, RR: 10.4)Fall of wickets: 1-114 (Liam Livingstone, 11.1 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR3.6 cleaned him up! Two in two balls Massive swing in the game. It's another slower ball, full and straight, Lynn giving himself room and misses a leg-side swing by a long way. Behrendorff is pumped 37/23.5 superbly bowled! Completely done by the slower ball. It comes out as a low full toss, Denly tries to flick it over midwicket but can only send it straight up in the air 37/17.3 done him! A googly, a touch slower, Labuschagne goes for the sweep again and it goes under the bat 57/46.1 strikes first ball! Round the wicket, length ball outside off, he tries to go straight down the ground but skews miles into the air and Behrendorff settles under it moving back from mid-off 44/310.2 he's caught at deep midwicket. Another full toss, quite high at just around waist level. but Peirson didn't generate enough power on the swat across the line, ends up mis-timing it so that the ball loops up and settles comfortably into the fielder's hands 78/514.6 slices it to long-off. Goes deep in his crease to counter the length but can't hit it as straight as he wanted to, and the ball goes off the outside half of the bat as it turns in his hand. Easy catch for the fielder 121/711.3 trapped in front. Nicely flighted on the stumps and he was moving well across to slog-sweep it, dips on him and beats him, hit on the pads. In front of the stumps. 88/615.5 Bancroft takes a good catch tumbling forward at deep square leg. Another short ball, this one climbs a bit steeper but after that last six, Bartlett was going to go for it. Doesn't time it as well and the ball is dropping down but Bancroft does well to run forward and take it 134/816.4 sharp bouncer does the trick. Banged in short of a length and rising up to home in on Morne's chin, he's in a tangle as he fends at it even as he's trying to arch back. The ball lobs up behind him for an easy keeper's catch 138/9Extras7 (w 7)TOTAL150/9 (18 Overs, RR: 8.33)Did not bat: MT SteketeeFall of wickets: 1-37 (Joe Denly, 3.5 ov), 2-37 (Chris Lynn, 3.6 ov), 3-44 (Sam Heazlett, 6.1 ov), 4-57 (Marnus Labuschagne, 7.3 ov), 5-78 (Jimmy Peirson, 10.2 ov), 6-88 (Lewis Gregory, 11.3 ov), 7-121 (Joe Burns, 14.6 ov), 8-134 (Xavier Bartlett, 15.5 ov), 9-138 (Morne Morkel, 16.4 ov)
