    13.4 That is a sensational catch! Stoinis times the jump to perfection at extra cover and swallows it above his head! Hits the deck hard on an irksome off-stump line and he remains deep in crease, tries to pummel it over the fielder and couldn't find the requisite elevation 110/4
    1.2 Oh, gotten with an absolute beauty! Serious pace and he makes the hard length delivery cut back sharply and he pushes forward to it, unable to get behind the line and the ball disturbs the top of middle, arms aloft and Curran is on cloud 9! 7/1
    1.4 Knocked him over! Shorter length or thereabouts, nipping away ever so slightly and he lunges at it, misjudged the line and the off-stump pole is pinged! Another crucial breakthrough for Stars! Curran is on fire! Produces magic again in the same over 7/2

    7.5 Pitched up and the ball thunders into the back pad, tries to flick it and misses it completely! No point reviewing it as there's no confusion at all and the umpire did not hesitate to raise the finger, nice change of length as he misses a straighter one. Shaky start by Strikers 62/3
    15.4 that's a well-direct shorter thunderbolt on middle and he induces an outside edge, tried to swat a swivel pull and the ball rose steeply and quickly at him, Siddle is pumped up, aggressive celebration 123/5
    16.5 Another slower back of a length ball zipping back at him, waits a touch and then takes the aerial route, lifting it towards the longest part of the boundary at deep midwicket and taken safely by the fielder Cartwright who gets it right, regulation catch 129/6
    18.4 On a length and slanting across off, opens the face and hits it in the air towards deep extra cover, taken in the deep, another timely wicket, has been tough to score on this pitch 141/7

    18.5 oh, back-to-back wickets! On a length and zooming away sharply, lured by the width, he throws his bat at it and gets a thick outside edge, excellent diving take from the keeper to his left, full extension and diving to pocket a gem of a catch, Nielsen goes for a duck! Haris at his best! 141/8

    6.6 Looped up and skids this a touch quicker, tries to whip it leg-side and is unable account for the spin on this searing googly and the off-stump is uprooted, gets a thick inside-edge. Terrific delivery 67/1
    9.5 Timely wicket, much needed for Adelaide. Steep shorter one on middle and off, goes big, goes hime! Takes at mid-on by captain Short, gone after a blazing fifty and an important contribution. 90/2
    15.6 Hits a cutter on a length and makes it go on with the arm towards middle, mows it downtown and finds a fielder at mid-on, will there be a twist in the tale? Stars still the favorites but a few more wickets could really bring the contest to live 133/4
    11.3 Oh, he has got the prized scalp! Lands it short on a hard length and offers some width, no real movement, Maxwell plants his front leg and tries to smoke it past Short at extra cover but gives a straight catch and admonishes himself, wasn't a menacing delivery and he just couldn't find a gap and elevation 96/3
