Faulkner to Silk, out Caught by Bailey! And the same man who fielded the last ball takes a catch this ball. Out of the back of the hand again, good bounce and a bit of width, Silk looks to slap it over the in-field, gets the power and the timing, but no elevation. Ends up crashing a horizontal-batted drive straight to George Bailey who accepts it gleefully. A flurry of wickets now, and that could potentially cost the Sixers a few runs in the end.

D Arcy Short to Henriques, out Henriques Run Out! The googly by D Arcy Short, Henriques swings across the line and misses, that thuds into a not-so-alert Wade, and they try to steal a bye! Wade fires in a wayward throw at the bowler's end, but D'Arcy Short has done a fantastic job of backhanding that onto the stumps before Moises could make it back! Amazing bit of fielding. Henriques run out (Wade/D Arcy Short) 31(24) [4s-1 6s-1]

Seam up, angling in towards leg, Justin Avendano giving himself room outside off, backs away, tries driving off the backfoot, but by then it has started swearving towards the off-side, and takes the outside edge of the blade to settle in the 'keeper/captain's gloves, who has done well to follow the line of the ball. Fantastic bowling from Botha. Justin Avendano c Wade b Botha 5(8) [4s-1]

Riley Meredith to Daniel Hughes, FOUR, short, wide, Daniel Hughes rocks back and eases a horizntal-batted drive to the deep extra cover boundary for four. That has raced away...

Botha to Denly, out Bowled!! Wow, what a delivery! That one angled in, and then just hit the seam to jag away, striaghten, deceive a heartbroken Denly on the backfoot trying to defend, and take the top of middle-stump.
