- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR6.1 And Shanaka strikes straighaway! Shanaka drops it short and wide outside off, and Owen extends his arms to reach for it, tonking it across the line. He doesn't get a clean hold of this one though, picking out the deep midwicket fielder stationed right near the ropes. 82/18.2 Massive shout and the finger goes up! A 100 kph slower ball on the stumps catches Smith off guard. He moves across the line and tries to heave it towards the leg side but gets beaten by the lack of pace, taking the blow on his inner thigh pad right in front of the off stump. After a quick word with Chapman to check if the impact was outside off, Smith decides against the review and walks back to the dugout, shaking his head. 94/215.3 Chapman has holed out at long on! A touch short and skidding on outside off, Chapman attempts to heave it away but hits it flat and hard toward long on. Hetmyer makes no mistake and safely completes the catch. 183/514.3 Cleaned him up! A touch fuller and shaping back in with the angle, it cramps him for space as he shuffles across to swing it away. It goes clean through the gates and breaks the furniture! 179/314.4 Bowled him with a absolute peach! Maxwell departs for a golden duck, leaving Ricky Ponting looking flabbergasted in the dugout. It was full and straight on the stumps; Maxwell cleared his front leg to whip it away across the line but connected with thin air only as Baartman shattered the stumps. 179/416.2 Slices it to short third! A three-quarter length delivery outside off, he plays it square and catches the outer half of the blade, chipping a regulation catch straight to short third as Baartman claims his third scalp. 191/619.1 Caught at deep midwicket! Length ball right in the slot and he tries to pick it up across the line. The bat face rotates in his hands as he connects with the inside half, mistiming it toward midwicket, where the sweeper fielder runs in to pouch it. 210/916.6 Baartman lights up the bails once again tonight! It was a touch fuller on the off-stump line, keeping a bit low. Jansen plays away from his pad and misses the length, inside edges and drags it on, allowing the ball to kiss the side of the off stump. 193/718.4 Hetmyer grabs a stunning catch! A pace off hard length delivery and Holland tries to send it downtown, playing a big slog but miscuing it toward long on. Hetmyer sprints forward, dives in and gobbles it up, keeping the catch intact with his fingers tucked safely underneath the ball. 208/819.6 Straight into the hands of Ali Sheikh! A fraction short and Netravalkar swings away, hitting it well but without the elevation needed to clear the ropes. He strikes it flat and hard, picking out the fielder at long on. 216/10Extras10 (b 4, lb 1, w 5)TOTAL216 all out (20 Overs, RR: 10.8)Fall of wickets: 1-82 (Mitchell Owen, 6.1 ov), 2-94 (Steven Smith, 8.2 ov), 3-179 (Andries Gous, 14.3 ov), 4-179 (Glenn Maxwell, 14.4 ov), 5-183 (Mark Chapman, 15.3 ov), 6-191 (Obus Pienaar, 16.2 ov), 7-193 (Marco Jansen, 16.6 ov), 8-208 (Ian Holland, 18.4 ov), 9-210 (Mukhtar Ahmed, 19.1 ov), 10-216 (Saurabh Netravalkar, 19.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR10.6 Has he got enough? No, he hasn't! A pace off length ball around off, Seifert heaves it away toward the on-side with beautiful timing, but he doesn't get the elevation to clear the boundary and finds Chapman near the ropes. Chapman takes the catch, tosses the ball in the air as his momentum carries him over the line, then hops back inside the field to complete the pouch. Clever stuff on the boundary, and that brings an end to an entertaining knock from Seifert tonight. 141/23.2 Jahangir chips his wicket away! A hard length delivery on the stumps, he steps out of the crease to loft it but mistimes the stroke completely. The bat face rotates in his hands, and the ball goes straight to Maxwell at mid-on inside the circle. 52/113.3 Breetzke finds the long off fielder this time! Holland takes all the pace off the ball, leg-cutter delivery, forcing Breetzke to step out of his crease and go big with all his might. Breetzke mistimes the slog completely, striking it flat and hard straight to the long off fielder, who was standing a few yards inside the ropes. 171/314.5 Jansen strikes! A short, pace off delivery that extra-bounces off the pitch. Robinson is a tad early on the pull shot, ended up gloving the ball behind the stumps to the keeper for a regulation catch. 179/513.5 Hettie gone for a silver duck! Holland bowls a leg-cutter around off and Hetmyer looks to swing it away across the line. He doesn't get a clean hold of it, catching the inside part of the bat and hitting it straight to the sweeper fielder at deep square leg. Another twist in the tail, folks? 171/4Extras7 (nb 1, w 6)TOTAL219/5 (17.4 Overs, RR: 12.39)Fall of wickets: 1-52 (Shayan Jahangir, 3.2 ov), 2-141 (Tim Seifert, 10.6 ov), 3-171 (Matthew Breetzke, 13.3 ov), 4-171 (Shimron Hetmyer, 13.5 ov), 5-179 (Tim Robinson, 14.5 ov)
