- BATSMENRB4s6sSR2.6 Philippe's wander around both sides of the crease finally brings about his undoing. After backing away to leg a few times, this time tries to shuffle way outside off for a scoop over fine leg. It's a back of a length ball on fifth stump and is there on length for the shot but he can't flick it away. Looked to miss it entirely but a big appeal from the wk Carey is upheld. Looked like he got a roughie. Didn't appear to be bat, though perhaps grazed the glove... 12/16.2 Worrall finally rewarded for his persistence on the fourth stump channel. Good length ball, lack of footwork throughout this innings exposes Edwards finally as he pushes away from his body and a thick edge carries comfortably behind to Carey at waist height shuffling right. 29/211.1 Rashid gets his revenge! Vince heaved Rashid for six last over to the leg side rope on a full ball outside the stumps. This time he zips it in quicker and straighter on middle, Vince goes for the slog sweep again but defeated by the pace and middle stump is knocked back. 58/314.4 slower ball at 120 kph on the legs, skies this a mile high over midwicket. Wells settles under this and clutches on making it look relatively easy, far simpler than a ball that high typically is to catch. 116/418.2 full on the body, skies this heave toward cow corner but got way more elevation than distance. Expletives come through the stump mic from the batsman as he knows he's toast. Matt Short calls off the fielder at long-on and takes a sharp catch lunging forward after judging the trajectory back to earth very well. 153/5Extras13 (lb 3, w 10)TOTAL177/5 (20 Overs, RR: 8.85)Fall of wickets: 1-12 (Josh Philippe, 2.6 ov), 2-29 (Jack Edwards, 6.2 ov), 3-58 (James Vince, 11.1 ov), 4-116 (Dan Christian, 14.4 ov), 5-153 (Jordan Silk, 18.2 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR4.3 fuller on middle, misses a flick to midwicket, struck on the back thigh in front of middle. Double noise off an inside edge that carries to the keeper. Given out caught behind. 52/15.5 short and wide, slices this high to the point sweeper, carries all the way to Dwarshuis who slides forward for a sharp catch. You don't stick a man on the point rope as a catching fielder but it works on this occasion. 58/27.1 reverse sweeps a full ball on middle stump, doesn't get the elevation to clear backward point and a simple catch taken by Vince shuffling to his right along the ring. 66/310.1 back of a length angled in from fourth stump, Carey stuck on the crease trying to push at this and is beaten between bat and pad. Top of off clipped. Lovely ball, but Carey's technique exposed a bit there. 76/411.5 short and wide, there to be carved through the off side but a touch of extra bounce results in a thick edge, juggled initially before being held by Philippe. Poor footwork as he didn't really get deep in the crease to get his body and bat into the best position to have a crack. 81/515.6 darted in quicker and fuller on off stump this time, arm ball skids in on to defeat the slog sweep. Hit very low flexing on the back leg. Straightforward lbw appeal upheld. Would've ripped out middle and leg halfway up. Clever changes of pace from O'Keefe. 109/619.3 full pitching outside leg, Rashid flicks this helicopter style to deep square leg. Holder at 6'8" on the rope plucks this with ease reaching high over his head. Any other fielder in the match besides the two towering Bajans and that's six but Holder clutches on with ease. 137/7Extras8 (b 1, lb 3, w 4)TOTAL139/7 (20 Overs, RR: 6.95)Fall of wickets: 1-52 (Phil Salt, 4.3 ov), 2-58 (Jake Weatherald, 5.5 ov), 3-66 (Matt Renshaw, 7.1 ov), 4-76 (Alex Carey, 10.1 ov), 5-81 (Matthew Short, 11.5 ov), 6-109 (Liam Scott, 15.6 ov), 7-137 (Rashid Khan, 19.3 ov)
