13.4 to JM Cox, looks to play the reverse scoop over short third, ends up feathering one to the keeper.. 140/4 19.5 to Karim Janat, looked to swing this over midwicket but ended up slicing it to cover off a leading edge. The ball held on to the surface, Janat was hit on the top part of the bat as he was cramped for room.. 197/7

5.2 to JL Smith, Knocked him over! Fired full, yorker-length, was looking to swing this down the ground but is late on the shot. Timber.. 61/1 11.4 to JM Vince, sliced to short third! Was looking to heave it leg side over long-on but the full ball swerved away a hint to take the edge. Excellent from Theekshana.. 114/2 11.5 to SO Hetmyer, Hetmyer may have been done in by some outstanding bowling! Theekshana's fizz. Given out lbw, he reviews. It's futile. The ball cuts back in to beat the inside edge and hit him plumb in front of the line. Grave misjudgment. Played down the wrong line.. 114/3 16.4 to Usman Khan, outstanding bowling, firing them in and not allowing the batters to get underneath the length as he finds Yorker-length, Usman looks to clear long-off but ends up hitting it straight to the fielder as he can't get any timing behind it.. 168/5 Photos
Daniel Sams	4	0	47	1	11.75	4	0	0
18.3 to J Overton, the mistimed heave is well taken at deep square leg. Looked to fetch the pull from outside off, ended up getting more height than distance. It was an absolute swirler, also adding to the challenge was a series of cables from spider cam that came in the way, but he kept his eyes on the ball and took it well as it descended.. 184/6

18.2 to Basil Hameed, he simply had to go after the bowling, and has perished trying to belt it over long-off. Looked to hit through the line but the ball nipped away a hint off the deck and he ended up slicing it wide of mid-off, good catch running back by Vince.. 149/7
Aayan Afzal Khan	3	0	25	0	8.33	6	0	0

Dominic Drakes	2	0	10	1	5.00	6	0	0
14.1 to T Kohler-Cadmore, luck smiles Drakes' way finally. A catch was put down off his bowling earlier by Jordan, but skipper Vince positioned himself to patrol the ropes specifically and takes a good catch running to his left. Cadmore was beginning to look very dangerous.. 124/3
Chris Jordan	4	0	35	2	8.75	9	1	0
16.1 to L Gregory, new stumps needed, please! Jordan goes full and straight, Gregory swings blind, misses it altogether and sees the middle of middle pegged back. 'You miss, I hit' stuff.. 134/5 16.3 to N Dickwella, drags it back onto the stumps! Dickwella went for a wild heave across the lines as Jordan slanted that away, and ended up getting a thick inside edge. Dickwella was in no position to play that stroke. Warriors are on a freefall now.. 136/6
Karim Janat	1	0	9	0	9.00	3	0	0
Jamie Overton	4	0	29	3	7.25	10	1	0
10.3 to MJ Guptill, helped straight to third man. Giants needed that. Guptill arches back and tries to help it along to clear the fielder but hits it straight down his throat.. 93/1 12.2 to J Charles, heaved straight to deep midwicket! The change in length did the trick. Charles expected it fuller and straighter but ended up fetching this from way outside off. Didn't time it as well as he would've liked. Charles was key to the chase, he's gone. Big wicket.. 105/2 15.5 to DR Sams, the pressure was building and Sams has let it show. Looked to go down town but this yorker kept coming back in to sneak under the bat and crash into the stumps. Massive wicket fort Overton! What a night he's having, third wicket of the night.. 130/4
