Dwayne Bravo to D Arcy Short, leg byes, FOUR, that's given as leg-byes and Short doesn't look too pleased. Has a reason, went off the inside edge, full and on the pads, Short nutmegged himself on the clip, off the inside edge and through his legs

Plunkett to McDermott, SIX, that's huge, length ball and McDermott has deposited it into the sight-screen, missed his yorker - Plunkett - and that was right in the slot

Liam Bowe to Doran, out Caught&Bowled!! That's a soft dismissal! Slower and drifting across the left-hander, Doran was looking to nudge it to the on-side, closed the bat-face early and offered a leading edge back at the bowler. It dipped slightly on him, but Bowe had it covered. Doran c and b Liam Bowe 7(8)

Tom O Connell to Wade, out Caught by Ben Dunk!! That reprieve hasn't cost the Stars a lot, tossed up nicely outside off, Wade was looking to shovel it back over the bowler's head, got far too underneath - plenty of height, but not the distance. Dunk settled under it, held on, realized he was going over the ropes, popped the ball in the air, came back and then held on. First BBL wicket for O Connell. Wade c Ben Dunk b Tom O Connell 41(38) [4s-1 6s-1]

Tom O Connell to Wade, SIX, not a great start to his BBL career. Lobs it up teasingly outside off, Wade's eyes light up as he gets under it and smacks it high. Didn't time it as he would've liked but enough to clear long-off

Plunkett to D Arcy Short, FOUR, that's criminal. Cannot afford to bowl on leg when your fine leg is inside the ring. Plunkett learns it. Short down leg, Short gets inside the line and helps it away past the man at 45

Plunkett to D Arcy Short, 1 run, put down by Gotch. Not an easy chance as it was going over him. Shortish outside off, Short goes hard and gets a thick outside edge behind, Gotch leaps and gets a hand on it, but only could tip it over the bar. Early repreive for Short, can he make it count?

Ben Dunk to Wade, FOUR, Wade flat-bats, timed it with ugly efficiency. Dragging it off the bottom, but just manages to clear mid-on. The fielder leaps but it sails over him comfortably
