- BATSMENRB4s6sSR5.6 full on middle. Down on one knee, and hammered to deep midwicket...but Evans puts in the dive there to take a screamer! That's the breakthrough 70/16.4 through him! Length ball, stump to stump, and Hales swivels to pull. Ball goes under his bat, and takes the top of the stumps 71/218.4 full on off, and he offers the full face of the bat. Lofts it straight, and it's got four written all over it, but Sutherland from long on dives full length to his left, and takes a stunning catch that Ferguson cannot believe has happened. Terrific catch 186/712.3 Sutherland gets him! And what a wonderful delivery to get the form batsman. Yorker, on leg, Davies can't dig it out, and it pegs leg stump back. The end of a whirlwind innings 129/316.1 shouts of catch it and taken at deep midwicket! Full on off, and he looked to clobber this with the turn. Mistimed, and Richardson makes no mistake 172/416.3 full outside off, and turning in. Swept to square leg, and they want the single...but he's sent back by Ferguson. Sharp take from the bowler, and looks like Cutting is out for a diamond duck! Duck off zero balls....yikes! 172/518.3 short ball, on off. Tries to pull, but sliced instead and the keeper runs in to complete the catch 186/618.5 fullish on leg stump, and he misses the flick. Lbw appeal turned down but they're trying for the single...and Richardson recovers, picks it up, and throws the non-striker's stumps down! A team hat-trick! Richardson's effort for all three though, so perhaps unfair that the hat-trick won't go down as a personal achievement for him 186/8Extras8 (lb 5, w 3)TOTAL209/8 (20 Overs, RR: 10.45)Did not bat: T SanghaFall of wickets: 1-70 (Usman Khawaja, 5.6 ov), 2-71 (Alex Hales, 6.4 ov), 3-129 (Oliver Davies, 12.3 ov), 4-172 (Daniel Sams, 16.1 ov), 5-172 (Ben Cutting, 16.3 ov), 6-186 (Chris Green, 18.3 ov), 7-186 (Callum Ferguson, 18.4 ov), 8-186 (Baxter Holt, 18.5 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR2.1 McAndrew's golden form continues. Good length on off, and he looks to slog leg side. Sliced, in the air, and Cutting at cover makes no mistake 13/14.5 is that the game? Finch makes room to cut, but he's popped this straight to Ferguson at short cover 33/33.6 third time unlucky! Quick, good length on off, and he's beaten by the pace trying to play an uppish drive. Feather edge, and well taken by Holt behind the stumps 29/27.5 straight to the fielder! Full, on off, and he goes for the expansive slog sweep. Struck well, too well, in fact. Easy catch for the man at deep midwicket 58/56.4 caught and bowled! A classic legspinner's wicket. Loopy ball, not full enough. Tries to punch with the straight bat, but played with hard hands. Sangha dives to his left, wobbles, but recovers well enough to hold on. His second scalp tonight 53/48.5 hang time and taken by Davies at square leg. Sangha goes stump to stump with a short-ish ball, and the pull takes a giant top edge. That's Sangha's third 60/69.1 that's seven down! Wasim goes for innovation, trying to switch-hit a shot over the left-hander's short third man. Top edge, and Sangha is under the catch 62/710.5 taken by mid on tracking back! Full on middle, and he goes for a big shot. Mistimed, and Hales takes a difficult catch 69/811.4 slower ball, fullish outside off. Through the drive too early, and mistimed to Cutting at mid on 75/912.2 full on off, and he goes for a wild slog. Doesn't have the distance and taken at long on! Sangha takes 4/14 and The Thunder win by 129 runs 80/10Extras3 (w 3)TOTAL80 all out (12.2 Overs, RR: 6.48)Fall of wickets: 1-13 (Shaun Marsh, 2.1 ov), 2-29 (Sam Harper, 3.6 ov), 3-33 (Aaron Finch, 4.5 ov), 4-53 (Beau Webster, 6.4 ov), 5-58 (Rilee Rossouw, 7.5 ov), 6-60 (Mohammad Nabi, 8.5 ov), 7-62 (Imad Wasim, 9.1 ov), 8-69 (Will Sutherland, 10.5 ov), 9-75 (Zak Evans, 11.4 ov), 10-80 (Peter Hatzoglou, 12.2 ov)
