1.5 to Babar Azam, edged and gone! Curran gets the better of Babar! Babar was really struggling against Curran. This is on a length just outside off. Leaves the batter late and Babar, trying to drive down the ground, gets a thick outside edge. Flies towards Maxwell at wide slip, and he makes no mistake. Stars on the board early!. 5/1 12.2 to DP Hughes, holes out to deep square leg! Slower bumper outside off and this holds in the surface. Hughes has to fetch it and in the end, also drags it because of the lack of pace. Picks out Kellaway on the fence and Hughes departs after an excellent knock. Timely breakthrough for the visitors!. 90/3 16.3 to J Edwards, taken this time! Edwards' luck finally runs out. Another slower ball on a length on leg stump. Seems to hold in the surface and bounces a tad extra. Edwards swipes at it and the ball loops up off the top edge. Siddle moves to his left at short third, and does the rest!. 118/6 | ||||||||||
| 4 | 0 | 23 | 3 | 5.75 | 12 | 3 | 0 | 0 | 0 | |
15.1 to MC Henriques, Henriques perishes! Hard length just outside off. Henriques opens up his stance and swings for the hills. Miscues it, though, and that brings Swepson into play at deep mid wicket. He settles under it and does the rest. The Power Surge claims a batter straightaway!. 103/4 15.6 to JC Silk, two wickets in the over! Slower ball dug into the track outside off. Seems like the leg-cutter and this kicks up off the surface. Silk cannot get on top of the bounce and spoons it up rather tamely for Curran at cover. Regulation chance, and the Sixers in trouble now!. 112/5 18.1 to J Davies, superb grab by Maxwell, and the Sixers are eight down now! Back of a length again, in and around off. Davies wants to pop this over mid off but slices across it way too much. Maxwell tracks it all the way, runs back and takes it brilliantly over his right shoulder!. 132/8 | ||||||||||
| 4 | 0 | 37 | 1 | 9.25 | 6 | 6 | 0 | 1 | 0 | |
17.4 to BJ Dwarshuis, Dwarshuis falls too! Banged into the track on middle and leg. Dwarshuis backs away, trying to flat-bat it straight but makes a complete mess of it. A real shank and Stoinis takes a fairly simple catch at mid off!. 130/7 | ||||||||||
| 4 | 0 | 25 | 2 | 6.25 | 9 | 1 | 1 | 2 | 0 | |
7.6 to JR Philippe, another high ball, and taken this time! Pushed in on a length just outside off. Philippe has an ugly hack across the line and the ball goes straight up off the top edge. Maxwell calls for it early, waves the keeper out of the way and completes the catch in the mid wicket region!. 54/2 19.1 to SA Abbott, another high ball, and another dismissal! Juicy full toss outside off. Abbott swings at it but only gets height via the top edge. Harper calls early, settles under it and then completes the catch in the leg gully region. Sixers nine down!. 137/9 | ||||||||||

0.2 to JM Clarke, That is an absolute seed! Back of a length in the channel and this decks back in sharply. Clarke, still unsure of his bearings, gets caught on the crease and then gets cut in half. The ball whistles past the inside edge and then thunders into the top of middle. Dream start for the Sixers!. 1/1 | ||||||||||

6.2 to C Kellaway, soft, soft dismissal! A bit of a drag-down on middle stump, but Davies will take it. Stops in the surface enough and that meddles with the batter's timing. Kellaway too early on his swipe and the ball swirls off the top edge and straight into Babar's palms at short fine!. 55/2 16.1 to J Merlo, Davies has his second! Shortish on middle and leg, angling in further with the arm. Merlo backs away, trying to muscle it over mid on but cannot get under it enough. Arrows it towards mid on, where Edwards times his jump to perfection and gobbles up the chance!. 139/3 | ||||||||||
