- BATSMENRB4s6sSR0.3 bullseye! Quicker ball skids on from fourth stump on a good length past an attempted pull shot. Philippe thought it was going to sit up more but the pace was too quick. Matt Short is now the third BBL player to take 10 wickets and score 400 runs in a BBL season, joining Marcus Stoinis and D'Arcy Short. 3/115.3 Smith has been runout! Good length ball on the legs, Henriques tries to flick into midwicket and the ball goes into the ring for a clear single. Smith wants to charge back for two to the non-striker's end but Henriques isn't interested. By the time he tries to turn back to the striker's end, he loses his footing and is unable to scramble back in time before the relay to the keeper breaks the bails. 153/315.2 short of a length ball, goes to heave over the leg side again, top edge swirls to short fine leg where a catch is taken tumbling backwards. 152/216.1 fullish length on off stump, charges down the track and lofts a drive to long-off. Picks out the fielder Matt Short easily taking the catch 10 yards inside the rope crouching on his knees. 157/419.6 bullseye! Yorker fired in at the base of leg stump, Christian shuffled across trying to sweep this past fine leg but misses and leg stump is lit up. 203/5Extras8 (b 1, lb 2, w 5)TOTAL203/5 (20 Overs, RR: 10.15)Fall of wickets: 1-3 (Josh Philippe, 0.3 ov), 2-152 (Kurtis Patterson, 15.2 ov), 3-153 (Steven Smith, 15.3 ov), 4-157 (Moises Henriques, 16.1 ov), 5-203 (Dan Christian, 19.6 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR6.4 full on fourth stump, tries to slog sweep this high over square leg but it goes straight up in the air off a top edge and swirls toward deep square leg. Patterson jogs in 15 yards from the rope and takes a simple chest high catch. 58/22.2 superb by Philippe! Full on off, goes for a heave over the leg side and a top edge swirls over vacant square leg. Philippe runs 30 yards from behind the stumps to the edge of the circle at square leg and takes this swirling chance while tumbling to his right. 21/113.6 bullseye! Slower ball yorker lands full on middle. He's through a leg side flick too early and the ball pierces the base of middle and off stump. 121/68.1 full on fourth stump, goes to reverse sweep this and a top-edge floats gently to short third man five yards inside the ring. Catch taken crouching forward on his knees taken by Kerr. 64/38.5 length ball on off stump, charges and slaps this flat to long-off for one, they scamper back for a second but the relay is true over the stumps to Murphy. De Grandhomme's dive isn't good enough as the bails come off with the bat a foot short of the line. 72/412.4 length ball on fifth stump, slogs this and skies a top edge that balloons to long-on where Abbott runs in 15 yards from the rope and takes a simple catch reaching forward at waist height. 107/514.3 Superb effort from Henriques running back from extra cover! Full on fourth stump, Manenti goes inside outs over the off side trying to repeat the shot from a ball earlier that went for six. Doesn't time it as well. Henriques bolts from the edge of the ring and covers 20 yards before lunging and takes this catch sliding to the turf. 127/717.4 length ball on sixth stump, tries to drive this inside out over cover but picks out the sweeper on the rope at head height taking the catch a yard in from the line. 139/916.2 length ball on fifth stump, goes to slog sweep and miscues this nearer the toe of the bat as it floats toward deep midwicket. Smith charges in 20 yards and takes a catch tumbling forward inches from the turf. It's his night tonight. 135/818.6 bullseye! Fullish length ball skidding in toward off stump, goes for a leg side heave and misses, off stump is knocked back three-quarters of the way up to end the match. 144/10Extras3 (lb 1, w 2)TOTAL144 all out (19 Overs, RR: 7.57)Fall of wickets: 1-21 (Travis Head, 2.2 ov), 2-58 (Matthew Short, 6.4 ov), 3-64 (Adam Hose, 8.1 ov), 4-72 (Colin de Grandhomme, 8.5 ov), 5-107 (Thomas Kelly, 12.4 ov), 6-121 (Alex Carey, 13.6 ov), 7-127 (Ben Manenti, 14.3 ov), 8-135 (Wes Agar, 16.2 ov), 9-139 (Cameron Boyce, 17.4 ov), 10-144 (Harry Conway, 18.6 ov)
