- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR11.1 No hundred for Warner. Banged in short outside off, Warner goes for the pull but ends up skying it up. Smith runs backward, avoids the stumps at the bowler's end by moving around them, and pouches it next to them 96/31.5 launched very high into the night sky and cover settles under it! Green got well underneath it, came off the toe of the bat, went straight up. Nicely-judged catch 10/110.3 Finch's struggles come to an end. A length ball angled across, Finch goes deep and looks to flat-bat it but the bat face is pointing downward on impact, which means it goes straight into the lap of mid-off instead of over him 95/219.1 a slower one from Joseph, a length ball outside off. Smith goes back and looks to loft it over covers. Gets an inside edge onto the stumps 172/612.3 that looks close! Smith skips down the ground but Hosein has bowled it on the pads. Smith flicks it towards short fine leg and sets off. The fielder fires in the throw to the keeper who breaks the stumps to find Maxwell short. It was Maxwell's call, Smith was hesitant. And halfway into the pitch, Maxwell too hesitated for a brief moment, which could have cost him his wicket 100/416.5 McCoy gets away with that one. A high full toss on the pads. David swings across but misses and is hit on the pad. In fact, Pooran has opted for the review. And this looks close. It hit him near the knee roll. And it hit him in the line of the leg stump. McCoy's angle meant it would have hit the leg stump. So a good call from Pooran 156/519.6 a length ball angling away from Wade who goes for the pull but isn't in control. Gets a top edge to the left of Mayers at short third who pouches it comfortably 178/7Extras10 (lb 4, w 6)TOTAL178/7 (20 Overs, RR: 8.9)Fall of wickets: 1-10 (Cameron Green, 1.5 ov), 2-95 (Aaron Finch, 10.3 ov), 3-96 (David Warner, 11.1 ov), 4-100 (Glenn Maxwell, 12.3 ov), 5-156 (Tim David, 16.5 ov), 6-172 (Steven Smith, 19.1 ov), 7-178 (Matthew Wade, 19.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR0.5 what a catch! Starc has somehow grabbed it in his follow through. It was a low full toss, Mayers drilled the drive back to towards Starc who grabbed it in his left hand down by his shin. What a blinder 6/110.3 120.5kph. A slower one full outside off, Green rolling his fingers over it. Charles clears his front leg and looks to go big. But all he gets is top edge behind the stumps and Wade settles under it. He hardly had to move 73/47.4 a wild swing and stumped! Charged down the pitch, Zampa may have adjusted his length, it's a googly, King loses his shape. Neat take as that bounced a bit 56/28.4 sharp catch at midwicket! Good grab by the captain. Back of a length outside off, pulls it firmly but head height to Finch. Starc rolled his fingers of that, took some pace off 62/312.5 a regulation catch for Green. Short of length at the batter, Holder goes for the pull but it hits him high on the bat and Green takes at deep midwicket 92/516.4 Powell fails to capitalises on that reprieve. A legcutter outside off, bowled into the pitch. Powell goes for the pull only to top edge it behind the stumps and Wade pouches the skier stretching forward in the end 122/618.2 full around off, Hosein clears his front leg and looks to go big again. Doesn't get the elevation though and Warner takes a regulation catch tumbling to his right at mid-off 133/719.1 and he cleans him up with a yorker. Right in the blockhole on the leg stump. Smith tries to get his bat down on it but misses and the ball hits the leg stick 143/8Extras11 (b 5, lb 2, w 4)TOTAL147/8 (20 Overs, RR: 7.35)Did not bat: OC McCoyFall of wickets: 1-6 (Kyle Mayers, 0.5 ov), 2-56 (Brandon King, 7.4 ov), 3-62 (Nicholas Pooran, 8.4 ov), 4-73 (Johnson Charles, 10.3 ov), 5-92 (Jason Holder, 12.5 ov), 6-122 (Rovman Powell, 16.4 ov), 7-133 (Akeal Hosein, 18.2 ov), 8-143 (Odean Smith, 19.1 ov)
