    4.2 A second wicket for Southee and Lyth departs just when he was starting to find his touch. Not the greatest of deliveries from Southee. On a length and on Lyth's pads. He gets a decent chunk on this flick, but the square boundaries in Dubai are rather long and he hits this straight down deep backward square leg's throat 27/2
    0.5 There's the Southee swing, there's his first wicket. What a ball by the Warriorz captain. A length ball with some late movement away from Vince outside off. He pushes with hard hands, feet going nowhere, gets a thick outside edge and Kohler-Cadmore at slip takes a comfortable catch 5/1
    10.5 Rehan falls and Harmeet gets the big breakthrough. Rehan charges down, but signals his intentions a little too soon. Harmeet slows this down and gets it well outside off. Rehan has to reach for it and gets it right off the cue end of his blade to long off where Paul makes no mistake 84/3
    13.3 Another slower delivery and this time Milne gets his man. Cox dances down and once more gives himself room. Milne follows him and bowls an offcutter outside leg. He looks to go downtown, gets deceived with the bat turning in his hand. The ball spoons straight up and the fielder settles under it around the cover-point area and takes a comfortable catch 102/4
    18.1 Southee comes back and gets the dangerman! Back of a length ball on leg stump, and around chest high. Hetmyer looks to hoick this across the line, does not connect cleanly. Deep midwicket comes a couple of steps in and takes a simple catch 144/6
    16.4 Cleans him up with a pearler! Pacy, 135.8kph full length ball on the stumps. Robinson looks for a mow across the line, misses and sees his leg stump flattened 123/5

    19.2 Straight up but falls safely. Back of a length ball on leg stump. Adair backs away and hoicks this straight up. The ball short of deep midwicket, who fires a flat throw to Milne. He removes the stumps in a jiffy and catches Saghir short of his crease. 158/7

    0.6 Change of pace and Worrel has his revenge. Slower offcutter outside off. Charles looks to go over covers, does not account for the slowness of that and ends up spooning this straight up for cover point to take a simple catch 13/1
    1.4 Huge shout of caught behind, not given but the 'keeper and the slip fielders are very confident. Will they take the review. Yep, they do, almost immediately. Oh, there is a big spike on the UltraEdge and Roy has to depart. Back of a length ball with enough nibble away from Roy, who pokes at it, gets a thick outside edge for a simple catch to the keeper. 14/2
    12.4 Muzarabani has the last laugh. Slower back of a length ball on leg stump. Mustafa stays leg side of the ball, and was eyeing the deep midwicket fence again. But he is deceived by the change of pace, and he ends up flat-batting it to long on 119/3
    13.4 Edged and taken! Another one bites the dust. Rajapaksa has reviewed, to no avail though. Was the wrong'un outside off. Rajapaksa looks to access the offside by going inside over. There is a big spike on the UltraEdge and Rajapaksa has to go 122/4
    14.3 Played on and Giants are right back into this contest! Back of a length ball around off stump. He looks to play the short arm pull to the on-side. Gets a thick inside edge and sees his off stump disturbed. 127/5
    16.2 Straight down deep backward square leg's throat. Banged in short on Paul's hips. He helps this, does not connect cleanly and Mills, this time, makes no mistake. Giants hanging on. 145/6
    17.2 Oh, my word, that is a stunning catch by Adair! Sharp back of a length ball hip-high on off. Harmeet is way too late on the pull, ends up ballooning this straight up. For the longest time it felt the ball will fall in no-man's land, but Adair hares across towards the midwicket region and takes a tumbling catch 148/7
