- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR13.3 picks out Woakes at mid-off, the Fire are turning the screw! No timing from Marsh, who looks to loft straight down the ground with a high front elbow but is done for pace and chips straight to the man on the edge of the ring 121/310.1 great grab from Ferguson at short third! Width outside off, sliced away via the outside edge, and Ferguson tumbles to take an excellent catch. Another excellent opening stand comes to an end at 89 89/112.4 mistimed to mid-off, huge moment! Brook was on the charge, but can't clear Woakes in the infield. Smart captaincy from Salt, the deep extra cover forcing Brook to hit this shot straighter than he would usually. Doesn't get the timing or the elevation he wanted off the toe of the bat 116/217.4 picks out long-off! Offcutter, full and floaty. Crawley was looking for three in a row but got it off the outside half of the bat, and Cook took a good catch tumbling forwards 174/4Extras10 (b 1, lb 3, nb 1, w 5)TOTAL201/4 (20 Overs, RR: 10.05 per 6 ball)Fall of wickets: 1-89 (Ryan Rickelton, 10.1 ov), 2-116 (Harry Brook, 12.4 ov), 3-121 (Mitchell Marsh, 13.3 ov), 4-174 (Zak Crawley, 17.4 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.4 picks out square leg on the rope! Pressure bursts pipe. Salt tries to pick this up over the leg side but it's a hard-length ball which hits the splice of the bat. Revis hardly has to move an inch 24/111.4 picks out Brook at wide long-on! Length ball, Short can't quite get the elevation on it, and Brook takes a simple enough catch on the rope. Sunrisers have squeezed hard in this chase 73/214.2 outstanding diving catch from Rickelton! Root's struggle is over. Hidden wide outside off, Root throws the bat trying to launch over the off side. Thick outside edge, and Rickelton tumbles low to his right to complete the catch 99/315.4 picks out Revis on the rope this time! Pace-on, heaved out towards midwicket with no timing, and Revis keeps his balance on the boundary line 104/514.4 dragged on! Ellis strikes twice in three balls. Angled across the left-hander, and chopped onto his stumps via the inside edge 101/416.1 wide yorker, skewed out to deep cover where Lawes takes a stunner! Covers good ground to his right, then tumbles forward and to his right to settle underneath it. Flings it away in celebration 105/6Extras2 (w 2)TOTAL130/6 (20 Overs, RR: 6.5 per 6 ball)Fall of wickets: 1-24 (Phil Salt, 4.4 ov), 2-73 (Matthew Short, 11.4 ov), 3-99 (Joe Root, 14.2 ov), 4-101 (Rachin Ravindra, 14.4 ov), 5-104 (Jordan Cox, 15.4 ov), 6-105 (Marco Jansen, 16.1 ov)
