- BATSMENRB4s6sSR0.2 but he's gone second ball! Blimey, what a start...McCullum charges down the pitch this time, has a mighty swing, it comes off the toe end, goes straight up in the air and is a simple catch. Sensible approach? 4/19.3 but gone this time! Held back nicely from Short, Bryant comes down the pitch, doesn't get to the pitch and it takes a leading edge into the off side 81/45.2 huge moment! Siddle strikes...Lynn came down the pitch, was a back-of-a-length delivery, Siddle angled the ball into him which meant he couldn't get the leverage he wanted. Simple catch for long-on 50/28.6 one of the worst balls of the night! Short, dragged down the leg side, Burns goes to pull it away but gets too much height and not enough distance. Weatherald runs in this time and takes it comfortably 78/310.6 cleaned him up! He earned that, the pressure told. This is full and straight, Heazlett moving right across his crease and his leg stump gets hit 87/512.1 not very well is the answer! Top edge to deep square...goes for the sweep, there's extra bouncer, takes a top edge and a simple catch 92/613.6 he's certainly out this time! Plays a drive, the ball is edged into his boot, rolls back towards Carey who completes the stumping. Tad unlucky! 100/714.3 through him with the googly! The Heat are having a shocker. Full, straight, looking to work across the line and is cleaned up 101/814.5 and another, Rashid causing havoc! Playing back to another wrong 'un, none of the Heat batsmen have picked him, heading towards middle and leg stump 101/919.4 taken at long-on so they can't quite see out the 20 overs...doesn't quite get the legs required as he tries to loft a full delivery down the ground 146/10Extras2 (lb 1, w 1)TOTAL146 all out (19.4 Overs, RR: 7.42)Fall of wickets: 1-4 (Brendon McCullum, 0.2 ov), 2-50 (Chris Lynn, 5.2 ov), 3-78 (Joe Burns, 8.6 ov), 4-81 (Max Bryant, 9.3 ov), 5-87 (Sam Heazlett, 10.6 ov), 6-92 (Ben Cutting, 12.1 ov), 7-100 (James Pattinson, 13.6 ov), 8-101 (Mark Steketee, 14.3 ov), 9-101 (Mitchell Swepson, 14.5 ov), 10-146 (Mujeeb Ur Rahman, 19.4 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR13.6 beats the edge and is bowled! Fully earned from Swepson, been a lovely spell. Does him in the air and then with a hint of spin for the googly. Beats the drive, takes off stump 108/45.3 maybe that's why he's bowling! He gets a bit cute here, goes down to play a paddle sweep and offers a simple catch to short fine leg. Could have played straight 56/16.5 picks out deep square leg! Drops in a short ball, Ingram goes for the pick-up pull shot, didn't really use all his power towards the long boundary. Couldn't free the arms. Well bowled. Big wicket 60/212.1 finds long-on! Pattinson strikes first ball ball...Short lost control as he tried to pull a back-of-a-length delivery, lobs down the ground for a comfortable catch 93/318.3 carved to backward point, good catch...a very wide delivery, Lehmann had to stretch for it, comes off the toe end and Swepson takes a sharp, low grab 142/5Extras5 (lb 4, w 1)TOTAL147/5 (19.1 Overs, RR: 7.66)Fall of wickets: 1-56 (Jake Weatherald, 5.3 ov), 2-60 (Colin Ingram, 6.5 ov), 3-93 (Matthew Short, 12.1 ov), 4-108 (Alex Carey, 13.6 ov), 5-142 (Jake Lehmann, 18.3 ov)
