- BATSMENRB4s6sSR2.4 brilliant catch running back by Cartwright. Short of length outside off, Inglis looked to pull it from there but the extra pace and bounce of Stanlake, plus the line, meant he could only sky it towards midwicket. Cartwright ran backwards from square leg and pouched it 14/114.1 Maddinson has got two now. This time it's the well-set Munro, one shy of his half-century. Length ball around off, Munro goes for the slog but finds Cartwright at deep midwicket 142/57.1 and he gets a wicket straightaway. Was a length ball outside off, Clarke pushes at it, once again little footwork, gets a healthy edge and Pooran takes a tumbling catch to his right 63/27.2 and Hatcher has got two in two now. Fuller at the stumps, Marsh goes for the flick but misses and is hit on the pads. A big appeal and the finger goes up. But was that going down? We will be keeping an eye on that but it doesn't matter as we don't have DRS in BBL 63/312.3 Maddinson provides some relief. Short again but this one has been bowled into the turf. Turner once again goes for the pull but gets an outside edge and Pooran completes the catch after a bit of fumble. It hit him on the chest before he clung on 133/416.3 short of length around off, goes for the pull but end up top-edging it towards backward point. An easy catch for NCN 153/6Extras11 (lb 5, w 6)TOTAL158/6 (17 Overs, RR: 9.29)Fall of wickets: 1-14 (Josh Inglis, 2.4 ov), 2-63 (Joe Clarke, 7.1 ov), 3-63 (Mitchell Marsh, 7.2 ov), 4-133 (Ashton Turner, 12.3 ov), 5-142 (Colin Munro, 14.1 ov), 6-153 (Aaron Hardie, 16.3 ov)
