- BATSMENRB4s6sSR19.5 bouncer down leg, goes to pull and it flicks something on the way through. Half-hearted appeal and he's given out. Carey can't believe it and replays show it came off the arm and not the glove or bat. But all things considered he can't complain too much. Collected another 75 runs after Labuschagne gave him a very generous second chance. 196/55.6 the half-tracker nabs a scalp. Too short on off stump, Weatherald rocks back quickly to hammer this over midwicket, pulverizes this but doesn't get the elevation. Picks out deep midwicket five yards in from the rope at thigh height taken in stride jogging forward. Easy catch. 66/112.1 the half-tracker has been his go-to wicket-taker tonight! Bowled too short on middle, Head rocks back and smashes this to Lynn in the ring at midwicket at chest height. On a hat-trick now! 113/217.5 length ball wide outside off, tries to drag this back over the leg side instead of working with the angle to cut, winds up toe dragging this in the air toward long-on, simple catch taken 10 yards in from the rope. 174/318.3 tries to premeditate a ramp over fine leg and it goes pear-shaped. Slower ball lands full and very wide outside off, Gibson tries to get off the mark with an inventive stroke after shuffling way outside off but only manages to spoon this straight up over square leg. Lynn runs across from midwicket and calls off the keeper to take the catch in stride reaching out in front of his body. 180/4Extras5 (b 1, lb 1, w 3)TOTAL197/5 (20 Overs, RR: 9.85)Fall of wickets: 1-66 (Jake Weatherald, 5.6 ov), 2-113 (Travis Head, 12.1 ov), 3-174 (Phil Salt, 17.5 ov), 4-180 (Ryan Gibson, 18.3 ov), 5-196 (Alex Carey, 19.5 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR8.1 back of a length on middle, stays in his crease trying to flick across the line through midwicket, struck quite high on the back leg, hit actually above the top of the pad flap, but Agar's appeal is upheld. Harsh decision from the umpire. Looked live like it would clear the stumps. 62/22.4 half-tracker on the body again but this time Lynn can't clear deep backward square! Lynn middled it but didn't get the elevation and Gibson doesn't have to move more than a yard stationed perfectly on the rope, takes the catch at head height. 23/18.4 short and wide, slaps this high to the point sweeper. Renshaw takes a step in before going back to the rope and takes this reaching above his head while maintaining his balance inside the boundary. 64/310.2 bouncer snares another wicket. Siddle bangs this in short, Burns is late going to hook, feathers an edge through to Carey. Siddle is on a hat-trick to start off the Power Surge. Meanwhile the lights are about to go out for the Heat. 68/510.1 full on the stumps, goes to slog over midwicket and instead skies it over the ring, Neser waits an eternity for it to come down and takes it comfortably with palms facing out in front of his face. 68/416.6 full on the legs, tries to whip this over deep midwicket, middles this but gets it too flat and a simple catch a yard in from the rope by Salt taken at head height. A fraction more elevation and that sails 10 rows back for six. 114/913.4 tries to switch hit/reverse this good length ball on fifth stump over short third man but can't clear Siddle. Unlike earlier when he let a skier at the deep third man rope fall gently in front of him, Siddle charged forward without hesitation to claim this inches from the turf with a sharp effort diving forward. 89/614.3 bounced out again. Short ball has been effective from the Strikers. Neser banged it in and he went for the hook, didn't really sound like a noise but Neser belts out for an appeal and it's upheld regardless. 92/715.1 short and skiddy from the left-arm spinner, hacks this toward cow corner but picks out the man stationed there, Salt, who takes this seven yards in from the rope. 99/817.3 stupendous catch ends the match by Neser lunging one-handed on the ring at wide mid-off! Length ball and tried to carve this away over the off side, miscues this and it flutters in the air wide of Neser, who tracks 15 yards and slides reaching out left-handed to pluck the ball and sticks the landing. A tidy bow-tie on a ruthless team performance. 115/10Extras6 (b 1, lb 4, w 1)TOTAL115 all out (17.3 Overs, RR: 6.57)Did not bat: M MorkelFall of wickets: 1-23 (Chris Lynn, 2.4 ov), 2-62 (Marnus Labuschagne, 8.1 ov), 3-64 (Joe Denly, 8.4 ov), 4-68 (Lewis Gregory, 10.1 ov), 5-68 (Joe Burns, 10.2 ov), 6-89 (Jimmy Peirson, 13.4 ov), 7-92 (Jack Wildermuth, 14.3 ov), 8-99 (Mark Steketee, 15.1 ov), 9-114 (Max Bryant, 16.6 ov), 10-115 (Mitchell Swepson, 17.3 ov)
