Tremain to Webster, SIX, full toss gets the treatment. Tremain misses out on the yorker, feeds a full toss and the batsman smokes it over deep mid-wicket by getting across the line, all the way for six!

Daniel Sams to Christian, out Lbw!! Change of pace does the trick for Sams. Goes full with this slower delivery and the batsman completely gets outfoxed due to the lack of pace. He tries to work it into the leg side, but the ball dips on him, beats him and strikes him right in front of the stumps. Given! Christian lbw b Daniel Sams 18(15) [4s-1]

Arjun Nair to Christian, FOUR, short and punished! Christian rocks back and puts it into the gap at cover-point off his back foot with lovely timing

Arjun Nair to Shaun Marsh, out Caught by Daniel Sams!! Here's the catch of the match. Has to be! Shaun Marsh slogs the floated delivery to deep mid-wicket, and Daniel Sams at deep mid-wicket charges towards his right and plucks it out of thin air, diving to his left. The standards set in the field in this tournament are second to none. Shaun Marsh c Daniel Sams b Arjun Nair 42(33) [4s-5 6s-1]

Chris Green to Shaun Marsh, FOUR, boundary after a couple of overs, that shall release some pressure. A flatter delivery outside off, Shaun Marsh slices it over cover-point and gets four runs

McAndrew to Shaun Marsh, FOUR, after getting a wicket, McAndrew bowls a loosener. A batsman of Shaun Marsh's caliber will put it away to the fence most of the times. A full toss on the pads and it's been clipped through square leg by the southpaw
13.5
W
McAndrew to Tom Cooper, out Caught by Arjun Nair!! That's a good take by Arjun Nair. Tom Cooper tries to scoop the length delivery over the fence, but he finds Nair at fine leg. The fielder dived in front of him and took a fine catch. Tom Cooper c Arjun Nair b McAndrew 13(17) [4s-1]

Tremain to Shaun Marsh, FOUR, that's a gift! Sprayed on the batsman's pads and Shaun Marsh tickles it past the man at short fine leg, all about placement was this shot

Jonathan Cook to Tom Cooper, FOUR, boundary to end the over. A flatter delivery around middle and leg, Tom Cooper premeditates and plays an uppish reverse sweep. The ball eludes the man at short third man and runs down to the fence at third man

Arjun Nair to Shaun Marsh, FOUR, short and punished! For the second time in the over Nair errs with his length. On the shorter side and it's been chopped through the gap at point. Six then, four now!

Arjun Nair to Shaun Marsh, SIX, smoked into the stands. On the shorter side, skidding along the deck, Shaun Marsh rocks back in his crease and whacks it out of the park. Deep mid-wicket stands!

Chris Green to Shaun Marsh, FOUR, short and plenty of width on offer, Marsh plays the cut late so that he can place it wide of the sweeper

W
Arjun Nair to Finch, out Caught by McAndrew!! Gone! Finch looks at the bottom of the bat as he makes a frustrated walk back to the dugout. The carrom ball around off, the length was not there for Finch to go for the big hit and hence he ends up dragging it to deep mid-wicket. A simple catch for McAndrew and Renegades have lost both their openers now. Finch c McAndrew b Arjun Nair 29(22) [4s-2 6s-1]

6
Arjun Nair to Finch, SIX, the release shot for Finch. He has not been able to find the middle much but this was close. The carrom ball and the slog sweep sails over the leaping long-on fielder

W
Daniel Sams to Sam Harper, out Caught by Ross!! There's the wicket Thunder wanted. One shot too many from Harper but he has done his job - got his team off to a flier. The back of the hand slower ball, Harper walks across and tries to whip it over mid-wicket, but is completely deceived by the change of pace, the leading edge balloons up and Ross completes the formalities near cover-point. Sam Harper c Ross b Daniel Sams 39(19) [4s-4 6s-2]

Tremain to Sam Harper, SIX, shot! Tremain missed his length and Harper is good enough to put it away. He backed away again and the good length ball is launched straight over mid-on, plenty of power to take it all the way
