Jacob Duffy to Jamieson, FOUR, low full toss outside off, Jamieson is able to get under it as he lofts it over mid-off

Nathan Smith to Cam Fletcher, FOUR, low full toss outside off, drills it powerfully through mid-off. That was hammered by Fletcher

Nathan Smith to Jamieson, SIX, that's been belted over square leg. He got right hold of this hook shot. Slower short ball, gains a lot of height as it balloons off the pitch, but Jamieson stands tall and wallops it

Jacob Duffy to Cam Fletcher, FOUR, low full toss outside off, driven hard enough to beat Broom at long-on. That was hit very straight by Fletcher

Christi Viljoen to Jamieson, FOUR, full on off, looks to unleash a lofted drive down the ground but it comes off a thick edge and flies over short third man

Christi Viljoen to Cam Fletcher, out Murdoch Run Out!! 1 run completed. Murdoch is yards short at the non-striker's end, that's brilliant from Broom. Driven wide of long-on, Broom sprints across for a neat pick-up and then fires the throw right beside the stumps. Viljoen does the rest. Poor judgement there in the running, shouldn't have risked the second. Murdoch run out (Neil Broom/Christi Viljoen) 54(33) [4s-4 6s-3]

Rippon to Leo Carter, out Caught by Neil Broom!! Dances down to a ball that's pretty short, heaves it in the air and holes out. Plenty of height on it, held up in the wind for a simple outfield catch. Leo Carter c Neil Broom b Rippon 8(11) [4s-1]

Rippon to Leo Carter, no run, dropped! length ball spinning wide of off, Carter reaches out looking to slap it through the covers but gets a feather on it. It pops out of the keeper's gloves, bounces onto his helmet and falls down

Jacob Duffy to Leo Carter, FOUR, places this right between two fielders. Length ball that follows Carter down leg, he swings it in the air over midwicket. May have held up slightly in the wind but it bisected deep midwicket and deep backward square

Rippon to Murdoch, 1 run, googly outside off, Murdoch drags the pull away to deep midwicket

Rippon to Murdoch, FOUR, plenty of bottom hand power in that as Murdoch backs away and flat-bats it over mid-off

Christi Viljoen to McConchie, out Caught by Rippon!! Another one for Viljoen. What an over this has been to pull things back. Full outside off, sliced off the outside half, it went skimming to the right of short third man and Rippon does well to hang onto the diving effort. McConchie c Rippon b Christi Viljoen 1(3)

Christi Viljoen to McConchie, 1 run, another drop from Rutherford at short extra cover, that's two in two overs and both very similar. This was more catchable though as it wasn't hit that hard. Full outside off, driven uppishly, Rutherford dives to his right one-handed but can't hold on

Christi Viljoen to Bowes, out Bowled!! The middle stump has been flattened. Really ambitious sweep shot from Bowes off a medium pacer, it sneaks right through him from a full length. Viljoen has struck with his first ball. Bowes b Christi Viljoen 42(31) [4s-5]

Nathan Smith to Murdoch, SIX, short ball that is dispatched into the grass banks. Superb timing on the pull from Murdoch. Smith followed him as he backed away but there was no venom in the delivery. Murdoch hits it well in front of square

Nathan Smith to Bowes, FOUR, steps out and hammers this full toss through mid-off

Nathan Smith to Murdoch, 1 run, really tough chance, goes down. Full at the stumps, Murdoch makes room and crashes it hard. It flew to the right of short extra cover where the fielder got a hand to it. Saved a boundary more than anything

Kitchen to Murdoch, FOUR, kneels down and sweeps it, gets it behind square for a four. Much needed

Kitchen to Murdoch, FOUR, backs away and gets it in the gap, the ball runs away off the outer half of the bat and runs away behind square for a four

Rippon to Bowes, 1 run, the conventional sweep now and finds the man at deep backward square leg for a single

Rippon to Bowes, FOUR, and goes for the reverse again and gets it over point..lovely improvisation and got the desired result

Rippon to Bowes, FOUR, byes it should be. That was slow, turned in a smidgen and the keeper was slow to bend down. It might have been an under-edge as runs have been give

Hunter to Murdoch, SIX, pick up and drop facility available..length again, decking in and was plucked away off the pads and over deep backward square for another sixer. Bad ball again as it was on a length and the batsman had the freedom to free his arms

Hunter to Murdoch, SIX, backs away and smokes it! Wow! That is into the grass banks. Picked up the length after backing away and biffed it. You can't bowl that length during the powerplay period

Jacob Duffy to Bowes, FOUR, brings the bottom hand into play and clips the low full toss away past mid-wicket for a four. The field is in and there was no stopping that

Jacob Duffy to Murdoch, leg byes, FOUR, leg-byes.. Murdoch was backing away and Jacob Duffy followed him. The batter missed the pull and the ball ran away off the thigh pad into the fine leg fence

Jacob Duffy to Murdoch, FOUR, biffed back! Just a short arm jab into the drive and the ball flew past the dive of th man at mid-off

Hunter to Andrew Ellis, out Caught by Christi Viljoen!! Lifts the ball away into the on-side without any timing or placement and the man at fine leg takes it easily. Again backed away to create room and lifted it away only to find the fielder. Andrew Ellis c Christi Viljoen b Hunter 11(10) [4s-1]

Kitchen to Andrew Ellis, FOUR, backs away, cracks the whip over mid-off and that is a four

Hunter to Bowes, FOUR, short, wide, slashed and that is a four..hit me ball and Bowes pounced on it
