    1.3 short outside the off stump. Inglis looks to pull it, but gets a top edge to mid-on. Howell takes the catch 9/2
    0.6 fuller ball on the stumps. He skips down the track and looks to flick it. Beaten and bowled 5/1
    2.6 top edge caught easily by Harper! Just a back of a length ball on off, he tried to play a controlled pull shot to the sweeper at deep square, he rolled the wrists and got a top edge that flew straight up, Harper camped under it and took the catch comfortably 19/3
    10.2 does him with the googly! MMarsh cramped on the back foot attempting to cut, and up goes the finger! Looked a bit tight once again, maybe high, maybe outside the line... but there's no DRS and no chance of a reprieve for the Scorchers club captain 75/6
    7.2 touch shorter, pace on this time, 120kph and chopped wide of the keeper... Turner thinks there's one here, but he's done by a direct hit from Harper! The Scorchers' recovery stand is broken by a lovely bit of fielding from the man with the gloves. Turner only got a bottom edge, ran just a couple of yards off the cut strip, and Harper swooped 58/4
    8.1 rapped on the pads and given! Bancroft was deep in the crease, not sure what to expect and the ball seemed to veer back at him off the pitch... might have been tight on leg stump, but the umpire was happy 62/5
    18.4 Hardie holes out! Too much on it, in comparison to Behrendorff the ball before, as Lalor bowls to his field and Webster holds it safely at head height out at long-off 128/9
    13.3 chipped to long-off! Webster gets among them, tossed up slower on off stump and Richardson attempted to go downtown, only managed to pick out Prestwidge running in for a good catch 90/7
    17.3 pace on and Tye nicks to the keeper! Attempted golf swing to a shortish ball, sliding in towards the right hip, and there's just a tickle - at least as far as the fielding team and umpire are concerned. Tye was unconvinced, but he's done his job of holding an end up 120/8

    19.1 no, it's just a straightforward flop, Fawad slicing a top edge out to deep backward point. So the Scorchers are canned with five balls to spare and Melbourne need 131 to start their campaign with a win 130/10

    16.2 bowled him! Marsh had the glory in his sights, and he's missed a straight one! Just played around the length ball as he looked for the winning angle. A personal anticlimax after a superb anchoring innings, but I suspect it's not going to change much ... 130/3
    8.2 width again, and this time Finch is drawn into the shot, and can't get hold of it! Mitch Marsh is running back in the covers, it's a spiralling skier, he's never entirely in control of this one ... but clings on heroically, with the slenderest tips of his outstretched fingers! 70/1
    11.4 Popped back to the bowler and Fawad has his man! Harper's hard hands let him down as he shimmies to the pitch, but is beaten in flight. The drive comes through too early as the ball bounces more than anticipated, and that's a simple return catch to chisel a glimmer of an opening 94/2
