- BATSMENRB4s6sSR2.4 lofted to mid-on. Samra falls in looking for another big hit. It was a length delivery, and there to be hit. But he didn't time it as well, and only found Mitchell bang on. Hollard strikes in his first over 39/110.4 bowled him!! Did I jinx him? Maybe. An awkward way to get bowled. This is what happened: Dockrell bowled it short and well outside leg, and Smith got his front leg out of the way to pull at this. He missed, and the ball hit his leg before going through them to hit the stumps. A lucky breakthrough for Guardians 93/37.4 spooned to short fine leg. BDL falls on the slower ball, which comes at him at just 115kph. Little angled it across, and went short around sixth or seventh stump. BDL had shaped to scoop already, and ended up mistiming it for a simple catch 73/216.6 sent up way too high, and taken at long-on!! The catch is taken on the edge of the boundary. Ashwin bowled a carrom ball, as he went short on the stumps. The ball seemed to have straightened after pitching, and David couldn't clear the boundary despite looking to swat-pull it hard 137/612.6 gone next ball!! Bracewell skies one up, and Dockrell takes a simple return catch. I thought it was bowled slower from Dockrell. All Dockrell had to do was move to his right, and wait for the ball to drop. Bracewell looked to slog sweep at this fuller ball outside off, but ended up getting a top edge 109/415.1 hits the top of leg stump. Edwards falls after a struggle. He went across the stumps early, and was deep in the crease as he looked to clip at this short-of-a-length ball. But the ball shaped back in after pitching, and hit the leg stump as Edwards missed his attempted nudge 118/519.5 lack of pace. Short in length on the stumps, and pulled to midwicket... and Campher is well short of the crease even as he dives back. He attempted the second run although the ball pretty much went straight to the fielder 167/7Extras18 (nb 1, w 17)TOTAL169/7 (20 Overs, RR: 8.45)Fall of wickets: 1-39 (Yuvraaj Samra, 2.4 ov), 2-73 (Bas de Leede, 7.4 ov), 3-93 (Steven Smith, 10.4 ov), 4-109 (Michael Bracewell, 12.6 ov), 5-118 (Scott Edwards, 15.1 ov), 6-137 (Tim David, 16.6 ov), 7-167 (Curtis Campher, 19.5 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR12.2 High ball... descends into Edwards' gloves! Gleeson strikes on return and points up. Scramble-seam hard-length ball around off. Vince went for the pull, proper top edge. Edwards had to wait a while, ball might have swerved but he was stable throughout and took it while lunging down. Excellent knock from Vince though, he's taken the side to a winning position 114/32.1 Bye-bye leg stump! Mitchell throws the whole kitchen, forget sink, into that pull. Under-edges the ball smack onto leg stump. Short of length, angling in towards fourth. Mitchell cleared his front leg and swung, don't think it did much 14/18.1 Slog sweep looks great... doesn't clear deep square leg though! Breeze works against Tector, de Leede runs right and takes it above head as he slowed down, still on the move though. Length ball angling in from around the wicket, finished on middle 80/215.4 That's out! Umpire gives it early. No chance that isn't, Sanjay reviews anyway. Shortish ball on middle. Not enough bounce for the pull. Sanjay beaten on the under-edge. He bent down a touch, got hit on the right thigh. Hawk-Eye shows it'd clip leg stump. Just under half of it 131/514.4 Dockrell never got going and has sent a bread-basket catch to long-on. Stood leg side of the fullish ball and heaved. Not fully on one knee but he was getting down 126/419.4 Taken this time, Shankar falls! That has to be the game! Neill again, runs in this time and dives forward to take a low catch at backward square leg. Aryan pumps his fist. Shortish ball at the stumps, Shankar effectively pulled short the ball from down to up 159/716.1 Through him and Pringles dinks middle stump! 102ks length ball coming in from around the wicket. Ashwin went for a soft flick, realised the ball was closer than he expected and tried to adjust his shot to hit straight. By then, the ball went past the inside edge. May have taken a small edge, judging by the replay. Pringle pumps his fists, as are Flames 132/619.6 Comeback win secured, by Aryan. Slows it down and gets a caught and bowled. Fullish outside off, Croes looks to leather it across the line. Bat turns inwards, ball goes slowly and lowly to the bowler's left 160/8Extras8 (b 1, lb 2, w 5)TOTAL160/8 (20 Overs, RR: 8)Fall of wickets: 1-14 (Daryl Mitchell, 2.1 ov), 2-80 (Harry Tector, 8.1 ov), 3-114 (James Vince, 12.2 ov), 4-126 (George Dockrell, 14.4 ov), 5-131 (Sanjay Krishnamurthi, 15.4 ov), 6-132 (Ravichandran Ashwin, 16.1 ov), 7-159 (Vijay Shankar, 19.4 ov), 8-160 (Noah Croes, 19.6 ov)
