    6.2 Tight run. Sent upstairs, Bancroft might be short, he is! Bancroft put in a full-length dive but the shoulder of the bat was down and took a bit too long to come in. Bonus wicket. It was a wide length ball that was tapped with an open face, Morris was inside the ring and threw it wide of Inglis. The keeper rotated clockwise, did a 180 at least, and flicked off the bails. 35/1
    19.4 Dances down, gets beaten by Connolly's turn and bounce and Hales has to go. Was a length ball that landed around off and went away, Hales tried mashing it over long-off, good work by Inglis. A start-stop innings almost from Hales, who found it tough to cope with the pitch and the conditions. He was cooked a lot of the second half but manages to get well over half of the team score 135/7
    11.3 Another run out, is that a barbecue? Length ball outside off, chopped to backward point. TKC was off for the run, was around three-quarters of the way through before being sent back. Agar had ample time to collect it, lunge to the right and take off the bails 88/2
    11.6 Through the slog sweep, middle and off rattled. Fullish arm ball landed around off and skidded through, Gilkes was on one knee and looked to go square. Got nothing on it. Pace: 100ks. 19 runs in the first Surge over, 3 for 2 in the next. 89/3
    13.5 Hales nails Davies, that's another barbecue! Hales made room, slapped it straight to cover and took off for a non-existent single. Davies slides full length but is at least a metre short. Poorly judged run, third run out in the innings. Hales, who looks cooked, not having a great time between the sticks. 94/4
    16.3 Skied... Whiteman at point runs back and takes it Was a full dart on middle, pace in the mid 90kph range, Ross made room and tried going inside out but ballooned it. Easy catch has Agar's figures look splendid at 2 for 6 off 3.3 overs 105/5
    17.4 Sits up but Sams can't pull it over long-on! Not Connolly's best ball, arm ball on a shortish length, Sams made room and went with the cross bat. Got it off the toe and Tye took a comfy boundary catch 108/6

    19.5 No, that is not a replay. Ponting has to confer with co-comms to confirm. Looked like one though. McAndrew danced down and tried slashing, the ball fizzed over the bat and Inglis completes his second stumping in a row. 135/8

    16.4 Scooped high, Sangha runs back from short fine and takes it. Crawley premeditated with a lunge outside off, got a full ball at 121ks, couldn't get under it as he had no angle to work with. Ball skied right up, good catch too. McAndrew's chuffed but Scorchers still ahead with 25 needed off 20. 113/3
    5.6 Big appeal for caught behind... given! Green landed it on a length in line with fourth and ragged away, 83ks, Whiteman was squared up and tried to work it with a close-faced bat. Bat had to go away from the body to follow the line of the ball. Whiteman's misfortune's closing in on the upper limit cos it takes the back of the bat before going to the keeper. 43/1
    12.3 Leading edge goes right up, taken at short third. Length at the body, just 128ks but lifts and zips to get big on Hardie's flick. He tries to rise with the bounce but has too much to do. McAndrew'll take that variability off the pitch with both hands. Thunder have an opening. 87/2
