- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR7.5 Catch it is the cry and taken by the wicketkeeper! Quicker short of a length ball on the stumps, King moves away from the wicket to make room, closes the face of the bat early as he tries to pull it over the square leg region, finds the leading edge and a straightforward catch for Hope, who moves to his left side and gobbles it up. 51/33.3 Moeen Ali takes a blinder! It was a three-quarter length ball on the sixth stump line, QDK plays it late and cuts it square, connecting the outside edge of the bat towards the slip fielder. It looked like the ball would fly over the slip fielder, but Moeen Ali had other ideas! He timed his jump to perfection and pulled off a stunning one-handed grab that stuck to his palms like super glue. What a catch! 26/16.2 Motie ends the misery of Alleyne! Fuller length ball on middle-leg, strides forward and whacks it straight and flat to long on with the toe end of the bat, finds Romario Shepherd at long on. 43/219.3 Van der Dussen has holed out! Banged in short pitched ball pace off delivery with extra bounce off the pitch, plays the swivel pull shot, does not get quite hold of it, had to get on top of the bouncer and swing it away, mistimed and finds the deep backward square leg fielder. 151/610.6 Bosch departs! Flighted length ball pitching wide outside off, saw Bosch coming dancing down the track, darted the ball wide away from the bowler, kept low on the track, and Bosch misses the line of the ball. Easy pickings for Shai Hope behind the stumps, Bosch is already a few meters outside the crease. 68/411.3 Sandshoe crusher! Yorker ball angling in on the off stump line, pinpoint accuracy from Shepherd. It was a pace on delivery, and Rutherford was late to react, failed to block the ball, and uprooted the off stump. Rutherford goes for a duck! 69/5Extras13 (b 4, lb 1, w 8)TOTAL165/6 (20 Overs, RR: 8.25)Fall of wickets: 1-26 (Quinton de Kock, 3.3 ov), 2-43 (Kadeem Alleyne, 6.2 ov), 3-51 (Brandon King, 7.5 ov), 4-68 (Eathan Bosch, 10.6 ov), 5-69 (Sherfane Rutherford, 11.3 ov), 6-151 (Rassie van der Dussen, 19.3 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR1.2 Bosch strikes! Short of a length ball wide outside off, McDermott plays the expansive cover drive, opens the face of the bat and connects the toe end of the bat, chips it to extra cover. Excellent effort from Rutherford, diving forward and holding on to the low catch. 11/11.4 Hello, what is happening out there! Short of a good length ball shaping away outside off, plays off the back foot and gets a feather off the outside edge of the bat. Soft appeal from the wicketkeeper. And Moeen Ali has walked! Without waiting for the umpire's decision or a proper appeal from the fielders, he's heading back to the dressing room. That's a great display of sportsmanship, but it leaves the Warriors in a bit of trouble now. 11/22.6 Soft dismissal! Well directed bouncer darted on the stumps, Hetmyer is cramped for space and caught by surprise inside the crease, extra bounce and he closes the face of the bat towards the on-side, connects the leading edge of the bat and a regulation catch for Green at backward point. 14/34.3 Edged, in the air, and taken by QDK! Banged in short pitched ball with extra bounce off the pitch, Hassan Khan plays the pull shot late and hits the outside part of the bat, clips it in the air to the left of QDK, sprints following the trajectory of the ball and commits a fully stretched dive to complete the catch. 30/413.6 Massive wicket! Another short of a length ball on the leg stump line, moves onto the back foot and whips it away towards the on-side sweeper fielder, did not time it well enough and finds Sams at deep backward square leg. 119/515.1 Bosch gets his third scalp! Knuckle ball delivery on middle-leg, flicked away with the inner part of the bat, deceived by the slower delivery, clips it away in the air towards deep backward square leg. 128/6Extras8 (lb 1, nb 4, w 3)TOTAL170/6 (19.4 Overs, RR: 8.64)Fall of wickets: 1-11 (Ben McDermott, 1.2 ov), 2-11 (Moeen Ali, 1.4 ov), 3-14 (Shimron Hetmyer, 2.6 ov), 4-30 (Hassan Khan, 4.3 ov), 5-119 (Dwaine Pretorius, 13.6 ov), 6-128 (Romario Shepherd, 15.1 ov)
