- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR1.2 chips it to midwicket! Edwards came down the track and Sandhu dug it in, making the batter chip it awkwardly to midwicket where McAndrew dived to his right for a low and sharp catch 5/110.6 slices it straight to backward point! That's the end of Philippe's powerful innings tonight as he hangs back for the cut and hands a catch straight to Ross at shoulder height 87/217.6 holes out to long-off, and that's the end of an impressive innings from Hughes and a wonderful over from McAndrew. Full and wide, moves with the ball and lofts it straight down to long-off for an easy catch 164/318.2 edged, and it's a thick one straight to short third man! Slower one, just short of full length and wide, Christian goes after it and only gets a thick one to Sangha 168/418.5 top-edge and that's taken at cover near the edge of the circle! Silk got into position early by going deep and across, swung hard for the length ball outside off, but didn't middle it at all 176/5Extras7 (lb 1, nb 1, w 5)TOTAL197/5 (20 Overs, RR: 9.85)Fall of wickets: 1-5 (Jack Edwards, 1.2 ov), 2-87 (Josh Philippe, 10.6 ov), 3-164 (Daniel Hughes, 17.6 ov), 4-168 (Dan Christian, 18.2 ov), 5-176 (Jordan Silk, 18.5 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR3.1 sent sailing in the air, and taken! Kerr starts with a slower ball right away, and lands that right in the slot on middle and off stump. Gilkes is standing slightly with some room after clearing his front leg, and slogs that to the on side. But he is beaten by the lack of pace, sending that high, as Henriques goes to his left to take that near midwicket 25/15.1 bowled him first ball! The young man O'Keefe does it again. Full ball on off, and it is tossed up as well. Hales instead plants his front foot on middle, and goes driving away from his body. But that ball goes on with the angle, as Hales misses and the ball crashes into off stump. Wicket to begin, and spin is having an impact here 42/212.4 great catch by Christian at mid-on! He has to take a few steps forward, and then go low to complete the grab. Sangha got a short of a length outside off, which was climbing on to him. And while he tried to pull, the bounce got the better of him, with the ball coming off the higher side of the bat to lob 79/75.4 outside edge, and that is one more for O'Keefe! Pulls his length back a touch to go slightly on a good length and just outside off, as Ross has a poke at that ball, which is again bowled pretty slow through the air. Ross gets a faint edge, and Phillipe does the rest 42/39.1 finds long-on with that swing! O'Keefe has his third, as Sams falls searching for a maximum - and possibly, a Bash Boot point for his side. Again the ball is bowled full and pretty slow on off. That was there for the taking since it was in the slot to be hit, but Sams lashes out that relatively early. The man at long-on doesn't have to move 58/49.5 stumped by Phillipe! O'Keefe doesn't mind to give a word back to the batter there. He gave the ball some loop at just 80kph, and went full and outside off. Davies can't resist the offer, and is down the track to try and loft that one. But he realises pretty late that the ball isn't quite quick enough to be hit, and is stumped by that time 61/510.2 chopped on! The bottom edge lands on off stump, and up goes the bail there. McAndrew has a drive at that full ball slightly wide of off, and again plays without much of a foot movement. His front foot is only a little forward on middle and leg, as he has go at that ball outside off. More trouble for Thunder 62/619.4 taken at deep midwicket! The ball was on a short of a length on off, and Green looked to send that into the stands to the on side. But he got that off the higher side of the bat after pulling with his front leg out of the way, and sent that flying to the man there 136/912.5 run-out at the keeper's end! Abbott does the job at deep point. Sandhu wanted a second, and took off early to give the strike back to Green, but has to go back without facing the ball. It was a short ball outside off, as Green slapped that away to deep point. Abbott at the fence rushed to his left, and threw back flat at the keeper, who flicked off the bails with Sandhu miles out.
