- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR7.3 comes down the pitch, takes the toe end of the bat as he reaches for it, drops down for a comfortable catch at long-off 87/111.2 holes out to long off! Tossed up wider with more spin away, Hardie tries to again with the spin over long off, he hit it well but not well enough, Prestwidge is right on the rope but he takes the catch well 121/213.6 holes out to deep square leg! Strange shot from Inglis. Full into leg, he tries to take on the long square boundary with a slog sweep and miscues, Guptill cruises to his right, well in from the rope and takes the catch 143/314.3 holes out to long off! Turner tries to launch Critchley down the ground and miscues on the back of some turn, it floats to long off and Rocchicioli takes the catch 146/416.2 Sutherland takes a screamer! Unreal catch! Full on middle, Hobson lofts over mid off, he hit it well but lofted it maybe too high, Sutherland runs back from the mid off circle with the flight and the jumps and twists in the air the throw his right hand back and pluck it!

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR10.5 Bowled off the body! Onto off! Short slower ball, follows Marsh as he steps outside leg, he tries to pull but is through the shot too soon, it comes off his body and drops onto off stump 85/36.3 top edge, good catch from Inglis! Short of a length into the body, Guptill went for the pull and it loops off the top edge. Inglis had to make a decent amount of ground as he ran forward 58/18.3 that's soft! Spoons a length delivery off the pads, lobs up to midwicket. That was all very simple 72/212.5 Hobson takes a screamer at deep square! Tossed up on leg, Critchley slog sweeps high to deep square, it's a big boundary, Hobson is a long way forward of square and a long way in to try and save two, he ran back with the flight and dives full length with two hands to take it just inside the rope 96/418.4 Eskinazi hangs onto a skier finally! A length slower ball deceives him again, he gets under it and hits it miles in the air to deep midwicket, Eskinazi waits an age underneath it and takes the catch. Finally for the Scorchers one is pouched 180/5Extras12 (b 1, lb 5, nb 2, w 4)TOTAL202/5 (20 Overs, RR: 10.1)Fall of wickets: 1-58 (Martin Guptill, 6.3 ov), 2-72 (Sam Harper, 8.3 ov), 3-85 (Shaun Marsh, 10.5 ov), 4-96 (Matt Critchley, 12.5 ov), 5-180 (Will Sutherland, 18.4 ov)
