- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR2.5 Johnson Charles is in business and gobbles it up! Generously flighted length ball in the slot, plays the slog sweep and miscues it in the air. Charles settled underneath the ball, juggled once and managed to hold on to it. 15/18.3 Soft dismissal! That was a bizarre stroke from King. Tossed up widish fuller length ball wrong-un outside off, extends his arms and tries to slice it away over point, lost his balance as he hits the ball, did not time it well enough to clear the infield. A regulation catch for the backaward point fielder. 68/211.5 bowled'em with a beaut! Generously flighted length ball on middle-leg with slight deviation inwards, moves away from the wicket to make room, cramped for space as Alleyne tries to squeeze it across the line, the ball goes through bat-pad and breaks the leg stump. 90/314.4 Catching drill for Tim David! Low full toss ball pitching wide outside off, leans forward and plays the expansive cover drive firmly, tries to play it over the covers, did not get enough elevation and struck it straight into the safe hands of David in extra cover at the edge of the circle. 120/415.2 Beaten by the wrong-un! What a magical delivery from Shamsi! A generously flighted good length ball pitched on the fourth stump line, Rutherford moves forward and plays through the line off the front foot, a googly ball and turns back in on the stumps, a massive gap between bat and pad and forces through the gates. Shamsi is pumped up, and the crowd goes berserk! 120/5Extras7 (lb 2, nb 2, w 3)TOTAL191/5 (20 Overs, RR: 9.55)Fall of wickets: 1-15 (Quinton de Kock, 2.5 ov), 2-68 (Brandon King, 8.3 ov), 3-90 (Kadeem Alleyne, 11.5 ov), 4-120 (Rassie van der Dussen, 14.4 ov), 5-120 (Sherfane Rutherford, 15.2 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR6.1 Jaffa! Slower through the air on the stumps with slight deviation away from the batter, just enough to beat the outside edge as Seifert closes the face of the bat early to force it through midwicket across the line, breaks the stumps and Warrican can't believe it! 43/41.2 Green strikes straightaway! Flighted length ball outside the leg stump line, follows Charles as he backs away, plays the slog sweep and skies it in the air to backward point. Two fielders converging and Brandon King gobbles it up. 16/12.1 What a moment of relief for Chris Green! After dropping four catches in the last game, he finally holds on to one, raising both hands in the air with a huge smile. The joy is shared by coach Trevor Penney, who is pumped up in the dugout! It was a length ball on the pads down the leg-side, Auguste picked it up beautifully with the sweet part of the bat, swept it away aerially over square leg area, but failed to find the elevation. Green did not have to move an inch, stood near the ropes and pouches it with the reverse cup technique. 17/23.5 Green gets his second scalp! It was there to be hit, a short of a length ball turning away down the legside. Chase follows the line of the ball and swings it away with the toe end of the bat, hits it into the wind and finds the sweeper fielder near the ropes. 26/311.6 Tickle off the bat, soft appeal and given! Drama all around! Widish length ball outside off, plays the square cut shot and nicked through to the keeper. Only Sams appealed, an enthusiastic one, no reaction from QDK behind the stumps, David walks away immediately and the umpire's finger goes up! 94/69.1 Full and overpitched ball pitching wide outside off, 106 kph, Jones moves towards the line of the ball and plays through the line, mistiming the aerial drive towards long off, Van der Dussen squats down and completes the catch with the reverse cup technique. 61/514.2 has he got enough? No! Caught at deep midwicket! Slower through the air on the stumps, back of the hand delivery, Potgieter attempts to go downtown, swings it away high in the air, and hits it into the breeze. Bosch waits for it near the ropes for quite some time, waiting for the ball to dip down and gobbles it up comfortably. 116/717.3 Wiese departs! It was a pace on a juicy full toss ball outside off, Wiese reacts late and hits the top part of the bat, swings his bat at it and skies it high in the air. Simmonds tracks back and settles underneath, completes the catch, making no mistake. 152/818.5 hard length ball angling in from around the wicket, Joseph plays off the front foot and swings it away, mishits the stroke and chips it in the air to extra cover, straightforward catch for Van der Dussen at the edge of the circle. 161/9Extras14 (lb 7, w 7)TOTAL164/9 (20 Overs, RR: 8.2)Fall of wickets: 1-16 (Johnson Charles, 1.2 ov), 2-17 (Ackeem Auguste, 2.1 ov), 3-26 (Roston Chase, 3.5 ov), 4-43 (Tim Seifert, 6.1 ov), 5-61 (Aaron Jones, 9.1 ov), 6-94 (Tim David, 11.6 ov), 7-116 (Delano Potgieter, 14.2 ov), 8-152 (David Wiese, 17.3 ov), 9-161 (Alzarri Joseph, 18.5 ov)
