- BATSMENRB4s6sSR1.5 gone! Rubel strikes for the Dynamites with a full inducker. Lewis played all around it and has reviewed it. No bat there, clearly. It would have crashed into leg stump and Rubel gets his 22nd wicket of the season, making him the joint highest wicket taker along with Taskin Ahmed, Shakib al Hasan and Mashrafe Mortaza 9/112 length on middle, quicker one, misses the ungainly hoick to the leg side, to be struck on the pad as it skids on a little and given immediately. 98/212.2 tucked away to the legside, and he runs with the shot not realising the ball had not gone far enough. The keeper was alert to the chance and hurried after it, picked it up, turned around and threw the stumps down to find him short off his ground 99/3Extras11 (lb 6, w 5)TOTAL199/3 (20 Overs, RR: 9.95)Fall of wickets: 1-9 (Evin Lewis, 1.5 ov), 2-98 (Anamul Haque, 11.6 ov), 3-99 (Shamsur Rahman, 12.2 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR9 slower ball outside off, had to fetch it a little and ends up dragging it to long-on with elevation but no distance, easily taken. Massive wicket for the Victorians, who were starting to look a little flat 102/20.2 what a start for the Victorians! Length on middle, tucked away to midwicket with soft hands, they ran with the shot but the fielder was alert to the opportunity, came charging in and found the stumps with his underarm flick and Narine was well short off his ground 0/112.1 direct hit and they have gone to third-umpire. Length, angled in, tucked away to the leg side and they took off, except the keeper was quicker to the ball and hurled a throw at the non striker's, knocking the stumps down and finding the set batsman well shot off his ground 121/411.1 short one, miscued high in the air and taken. Hurried on to him, Shakib had been struggling to get the pull shot away, hit high on the bat and ends up spooning a simple catch to mid-on 120/315.2 short one, hurries onto Pollard as he swings and loses control of the bottom hand, only managing to spoon it towards long-on, where Tamim Iqbal came running in and took it with ease 141/613.2 short ball, miscued and that's a massive, massive wicket. Tried to slap it over the inner ring, gets it high on the bat and taken comfortably at mid-off 132/518.3 slower ball outside off, too early into his wild swing and gets an outside edge to the keeper 173/816.2 full on the pads, flicked aerially towards deep squareleg and straight to the fielder stationed there 143/719.2 slower ball outside off, fetches it and swings to the legside but the change in pace means he is too early into the shot, gets a top edge and is caught by Wahab Riaz, who had to run back from short fine-leg a few paces 180/9Extras9 (lb 4, w 5)TOTAL182/9 (20 Overs, RR: 9.1)Fall of wickets: 1-0 (Sunil Narine, 0.2 ov), 2-102 (Upul Tharanga, 8.6 ov), 3-120 (Shakib Al Hasan, 11.1 ov), 4-121 (Rony Talukdar, 12.1 ov), 5-132 (Andre Russell, 13.2 ov), 6-141 (Kieron Pollard, 15.2 ov), 7-143 (Shuvagata Hom, 16.2 ov), 8-173 (Nurul Hasan, 18.3 ov), 9-180 (Mahmudul Hasan, 19.2 ov)
