    7.1 And the captain strikes first ball. Takes a good low return catch. There's hardly any reaction from Santner. Roy looked to launch at this full, slow and dipping delivery slightly wide of off, but ended up chipping it back off the inside half of the bat 40/2

    5.2 bowled him!! Hits leg stump. Allen's struggle ends. He advances down the pitch early, and Watt spots that. The bowler goes slow yet short on off, and gets the ball to turn in. Allen went to pull but missed, and was bowled 30/1
    11.4 chipped to extra cover. Munsey falls after carrying his side so far. Santner takes the catch with a reverse cup. Curran bowled this full and outside off - there seemed to be a lack of pace there - and Munsey looked to slice at it by opening the face of the bat. All he could do was just gently chip the ball for a simple catch 72/3
    16.6 the change of bat doesn't work. LL falls immediately. Good catch by Evans as he balances well at the long-on boundary while moving a step or two back. Boult attempts a yorker, but ends up bowling a knee-height full toss on off. LL went tonking, but couldn't clear the big boundary 127/4
    18.3 great comeback by Boult (and sorry for the jinx, Glasgow!). Boult swings this in, and lands a yorker bang on middle. RB looks to squeeze his bat down in time, but it's too late. The ball is right on target, and ends up hitting the stumps 146/5

    19.4 ballooned for the keeper to take to his right. Naylor attempted the reverse scoop, but the length seemed too full, and the pace-on ball made it further more challenging. Naylor looked to play it from off stump, and ended up skying it for a comfortable catch 155/6

    2.5 taken at point. Adair plays his role. He hit out really well. Now he's gotten out trying to hit out. That's how an opener should play T20 cricket. Davidson can celebrate a hard-earned wicket where he held his cool against a batter charging at him. He aimed at his toes, cramped him up and forced Adair to spoon a catch to point 24/1
    4.3 bowled him. Smuts goes across the line to a straight ball and loses his stumps. Badly judged sweep shot. Especially against a left-arm spinner who is quick through the air and accurate enough to hold his line and length. 28/2
    15.5 appeal for lbw as Ngidi goes full and straight from wide of the crease. Gous plays all around the ball and it looks very out. He's given out by the umpire. But he reviews. This is top pace from Ngidi and he gets really late inswing. That's what does for Gous. He's not able to catch up to the movement. Pinned in front of middle stump, ball-tracking says it will go on to hit leg stump 136/3
