    2.2 goes for the big launch, holes out to mid-on! The ball seemed to stick in the surface, off the toe of the bat, and into Overton's bucket hands! 11/1

    10.4 finally, a violent strike, and Short holes out! He unleashed a flat straight slap down the ground, targeting the short straight boundary. But Overton on the rope barely has to move. Fire's main source of momentum (I use the word advisedly) is gone 62/3

    4.4 Root attempts the scoop, Henry thuds his leg stump! What a killer blow that is! It was a fraction too full for the stroke, Root couldn't get his bat into position in time, and Rockets are fully launched now! 26/2

    12.1 holes out to the deep midwicket pocket! Ravindra went for a gallop, Santner saw him coming, speared the ball into the pitch, and it was high off the toe of the blade to Harrison 70/4

    16.4 wider line, inside-out launch... worldie of a catch! Cox connected so sweetly, it looked like six all the way... but the pocket at deep midwicket is just deep enough for Allen to sprint round, fling himself full length, and pick it out at full stretch! 110/6

    12.4 tumbling leg-side take from Billings! Down on one knee for the sweep, a thin tickle. Off the bat, into Billings' chest, and into his outstretched right glove as he maintains his composure 72/5

    17.5 bottom-handed launch to long-on! Those three Cox sixes look like being the best of this innings. This is a rinse-and-repeat dismissal. More attempts to impart pace through the ball, another power failure 112/7
