- BATSMENRB4s6sSR3.6 finally comes a direct hit, and the Rockers are already celebrating. It was Santner at mid-on, who aimed for the stumps at the striker's end. And guess what, the first replay shows Munsey was miles short of the crease when the ball struck the stumps. Cross pushed this ball down to mid-on and went for the single, only for Santner to throw it flat and bang at the stumps 19/20.4 got him! Santner takes a tumbling catch at mid-on. He takes a few steps to his right, and completes the take. Boult bowled a short delivery at Roy, who went for the pull from outside off. But I think the slowness of the surface, as much as the line outside off, played a part there, as Roy mistimed his shot 1/14.2 bowled him!! Cosmic lose three early. Cross keeps advancing down the pitch. This time he looks to pull at this short ball bowled with a cross seam on leg stump. He went ahead with the shot and missed, and the ball pinged the top of the leg stump 19/312.1 strikes first ball!! Livingstone is stumped. He skipped down the pitch at this length ball just outside leg, and aimed for the big heave on the leg side. But he missed, and Gous had plenty of time to whip the bails off 66/57.5 trapped in front, and given!! Henriques has a word with Livingstone... and reviews. Santner gave the ball plenty of air, angling it in and bowling fullish on leg. Henriques went back to whip, but missed. There's no bat involved there. Ball tracking shows the ball clipping the side of leg stump on umpire's call. So Henriques has to depart 42/417.4 taken at deep cover point. Slower delivery from Boult gets Berrington. It went off the toe end of the bat as Berrington went lofting hard at this full ball around sixth stump. There was no pace to play with, though, and the ball flew off the bat 90/712.2 he goes low and plays the paddle sweep. But there's a loud appeal for lbw by the keeper, which is turned down. Rockers review, though. The ball is angled in, and is on a shortish length. It lands on middle and leg, and straightens. Leaks looked to sweep but the ball went below his bat, with no bottom edge there. This is could be out! Yup, ball tracking shows the ball would have hit the top of leg stump. So Leask falls first ball. Smuts on a hat-trick 66/617.6 got him! Sharp catch at point. The ball was hit extremely hard. Short delivery rising just outside off, and although Ali skipped in the crease to ride the bounce, he still found the fielder despite slashing hard. Adair took the catch with a reverse cut 90/819.5 pace off, and gone this time! Hardly a reaction from Boult. He didn't have a lot of time to catch the ball, as van Meekeren swatted back at this short ball bowled at a lack of pace on off. The ball got stuck into Boult's hands there 115/919.6 gone first ball. Ngidi is struck on the back leg, and Boult has five. But wait, Ngidi has reviewed. He got his front leg out of the way, and went hoicking at this dipping yorker on leg. He was struck on his back toe, with no batg involved. And he remains out, as ball tracking shows the ball would have hit the base of the leg stump. Boult has his first T20 five-for. 115/10Extras5 (lb 1, nb 1, w 3)TOTAL115 all out (20 Overs, RR: 5.75)Fall of wickets: 1-1 (Jason Roy, 0.4 ov), 2-19 (George Munsey, 3.6 ov), 3-19 (Matthew Cross, 4.2 ov), 4-42 (Moises Henriques, 7.5 ov), 5-66 (Liam Livingstone, 12.1 ov), 6-66 (Michael Leask, 12.2 ov), 7-90 (Richie Berrington, 17.4 ov), 8-90 (Ali Khan, 17.6 ov), 9-115 (Paul van Meekeren, 19.5 ov), 10-115 (Lungi Ngidi, 19.6 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR5.1 length ball on middle, skewed to mid-off, where Munsey takes an excellent tumbling catch. Munsey dives across to his left in the infield and snags the catch with both hands. Seems like the slowie on Ngidi, on a length and does not arrive at Adair, who pops it up to the Cosmic skipper 67/22.3 Maharaj spins around for an lbw appeal and the finger goes up! Finally some respite for Cosmic. Looped up on middle, drifts in, Smuts searches for another sweep, but does not connect with this and is struck on the pad in line with middle. This is adjacent and Smuts has to depart 41/19.5 reverse sweep. Gets a top edge. Goes straight up. And is taken by short third. Good work by Ngidi to keep track of the swirling ball in the air. 107/3Extras3 (lb 1, nb 2)TOTAL116/3 (11.3 Overs, RR: 10.08)Fall of wickets: 1-41 (JJ Smuts, 2.3 ov), 2-67 (Ross Adair, 5.1 ov), 3-107 (Brandon McMullen, 9.5 ov)
