- BATSMENRB4s6sSR2.2 in the slot, Smeed looks to go downtown but hits it straight up... Hales settles underneath it at mid-on! 14/110.5 brilliant diving catch by Hales! Full on off stump, angling across the left-hander from around the wicket. Swung out into the deep, Hales ran around and dived low to his left, and took it low to the ground 81/38.3 straight down Rashid's throat! Another cutter, into the pitch, and Moeen looked to slog-sweep over straight midwicket, but could only pick out RK19 on the rope 67/218.5 cutter, in the slot. Livingstone looks to monster it into the stands but his timing is off, and Root takes the catch running in from long-off! Big wicket 140/611.3 full outside off, Mousley skips down and chips straight to Root at mid-off! Looked to clear the man on the edge of the ring but just spooned it straight down his throat 83/415.3 bizarre dismissal! Full, cutter, down the leg side, Benjamin looked to swing over square leg but was through the shot very early, and managed to top-edge it through to TKC, seemingly via the back of the bat. The umpires are checking it. Spike on Ultra-Edge, and it's a clean catch 106/519.5 slower ball, banged into the pitch. Swing and miss from Howell. GvB scrambles through for a bye but Howell is just short at the bowler's end as TKC throws to Wood, who hits the stumps from short range 143/7Extras8 (b 2, lb 3, w 3)TOTAL143/7 (20 Overs, RR: 7.15 per 6 ball)Fall of wickets: 1-14 (Will Smeed, 2.2 ov), 2-67 (Moeen Ali, 8.3 ov), 3-81 (Miles Hammond, 10.5 ov), 4-83 (Dan Mousley, 11.3 ov), 5-106 (Chris Benjamin, 15.3 ov), 6-140 (Liam Livingstone, 18.5 ov), 7-143 (Benny Howell, 19.5 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR18.2 full on middle. Slower ball. Hales goes for the glory shot by trying to hammer a six over long on. Ends up mistiming it, and the ball goes sky high. Where has the ball gone? Nowhere really, Helm calls for the catch and takes it from near where the non-striker usually stands 140/30.5 bowled him! Ball stays a tad low, and this has grubbed under Malan's bat. A slider around the stumps, and Malan gets forward to defend. Through him, stumps rattled. 9/17.3 good length, on off. Tries to flick square but top edge! Short fine leg has to run in, but pockets the catch after keeping his eyes on the ball 61/218.4 edged to the keeper! Good length on middle and leg. TKC comes down the ground to try and go over the top. But the ball holds its line, gets the outside edge of the bat, and the keeper dives forward to complete a catch. 140/4Extras6 (lb 3, w 3)TOTAL147/4 (19.2 Overs, RR: 7.57 per 6 ball)Fall of wickets: 1-9 (Dawid Malan, 0.5 ov), 2-61 (Colin Munro, 7.3 ov), 3-140 (Alex Hales, 18.2 ov), 4-140 (Tom Kohler-Cadmore, 18.4 ov)
