Kane pulls the ball straight towards him, he catches the ball and is worried about going over the rope. Tosses the ball in the air, comes back in and takes its. 65/5
Lee Nelson	2	0	18	1	9.00	4	1	1	0	0

0.1 to JNK Shannon, that's a terrific catch from Kenny Carroll. Shannon swings the ball high into the air. Carroll chases the ball back and takes a sliding catch at short third man. What a way to start the chase!. 0/1 2.1 to C Dougherty, yet another Knights wicket goes down. Richardson swings the ball back into Dougherty and it hits him on the pads. That's plumb and the Umpires finger goes up!. 4/3
Tyrone Kane	4	1	16	2	4.00	19	1	1	1	0
1.3 to JA McCollum, McCollum never looked comfortable out there, gets a thick edge to Sorensen at first slip. He takes a nice catch low down and McCollum is gone for a duck. 4/2 3.5 to GJ Thompson, another wicket goes down, this time its the dangerous Thompson. He cut the ball square on the off-side, Carroll dives to his right at point and takes the catch. Its just above the ground, Lightning in total control here.. 10/4
Peter Chase	4	1	13	2	3.25	17	1	0	2	0
8.6 to NL Smith, that's a horrible shot to end Smith's innings. Hits the ball to Dockrell at mid-on, he isn't going to drop that one. Knights five down. 31/5 10.2 to J Holmes, Holmes gets a little tickle on a short ball down the legside. Tucker dives to his left and gets a glove on the ball, he bobbles it and takes the catch. That's excellent keeping from the youngster.. 39/6
