- BATSMENRB4s6sSR2.3 Botha strikes with his third ball: a non-turner. This is the arm ball, Botha hits a hard length and top of middle stump. Denly ventures outside leg and aims a punch through extra-cover. He does not make contact. Botha, though, hits the stumps and celebrates 17/14.1 an appeal for caught behind, and the finger goes up. Arm ball once again from Botha, Avendano backs away outside leg and feathers it behind. Little deflection and Wade snaps it up. Two wickets in five balls for Botha 27/214.6 tossed on middle, Hughes can't clear deep midwicket. He holes out to McDermott. Hughes swings, but does not get all of it. Crucial wicket for Sixers 119/411.5 Henriques swings to the leg side but does not make contact with the turning ball. This was a wrong'un. Wade fumbles but swoops to his right, collects the ball and throws it to Short, who catches Henriques short at the bowler's end. Snazzy back-hand from Short. So much risk for a bye and Henriques is gone 94/315.4 back-of-the-hand variety from Faulkner. Shorter and slower outside off, slapped in the air. Bailey at short cover plucks out a smart catch 120/518.1 too full on leg stump, Archer doesn't get the yorker right. Phillipe doesn't get enough power. He holes out to long-on and gives Archer his first wicket of the evening 142/619.4 full and right in the slot, Curran swipes it straight into the lap of deep midwicket. Another change-up, another wicket 156/819.2 Caught in the outfield now. Slower ball, 110ks, of the back of the hand variety.
