3.5 to Q de Kock, Tremendous riposte, rattles the off-stump! irksome off-stump line rising from a length, spins away a little and beats his slog-sweep, huge wicket, goes without saying. Chase is roaring in celebration.. 31/1

12.1 to JM Bairstow, Around the wicket, quicker and fires it in on middle, attempts a sweep and is late through the shot, appeal for an lbw and given and Bairstow wants another look. Hits him high on the thigh on his back-leg. Ultra-edge shows no deflection. Pitching outside off and hitting wickets with impact on umpire's call so he has to go. Breaks an ominous partnership. 112/2
15.6 to M Jansen, Excellent forward diving catch! The pressure of dots prompts a big shot but he has miscued this straight into the hands of Esterhuizen! Planted his front leg and attempted to slog sweep, not much power behind it.. 131/4

14.6 to J Hermann, that's a soft dismissal, misses a straighter one, tossed up fuller right on middle, Hermann steps leg-side in a bid to chomp it downtown and wasn't behind the line, yorked himself and this is another vital scalp for Capitals!. 128/3
16.4 to CJ Green, Lobbed up on a length wide of off, tries to slam a cut and it bites and grips late, turning across him, he tried to thump it down the ground and misses it, looks like his backfoot is not grounded and the bails were dislodged with his foot still in the air, wickets continue to tumble as Sunrisers struggle to take off. 134/5
18.6 to MP Breetzke, Such a smart operator, so unpredictable and very hard to pick, one of the finest spells of this season! Pure magic and befuddles Breetzke with a pearler, lands it full and it skids on at middle, wasn't anticipating at all because that's been his template today, mixing it up with his pace, line and length. It's been a staggering spell. Breetzke was caught up in two minds, playing a nothing shot as he attempted a sweep. 150/6

1.6 to SD Hope, First breakthrough! Lands it short on middle and leg, swivel pull into the leg-side, ball ballooned up and hit him near the handle, de Kock sprints forward and takes a sprawling tumbling catch, keeping his eyes locked on the ball. 15/1
403318.25104110
17.5 to B Parsons, Done his job, gives a glimmer of hope to Sunrisers. Got too far across his stumps in a bid to ramp it away, You Miss, I hit! Clatters leg-stump and the zingers are lit up! Nevertheless, a stupendous outing, tried a risky shot but that's the way he plays: high-risk, high reward. 152/3

7.5 to C Esterhuizen, That will tilt the balance. Over the wicket, fires it quick and he misses the flick, the change of pace gobsmacked him, totally took him by surprise, carom ball does the trick. He had to accelerate and the the pressure of asking rate can often bring about errors. 61/2
