1.4 to SD Heazlett, this goes miles up, taken at mid-on! Heazlett going for a wild swing over the leg side, sends the ball high into the sky and Finch has an age to settle underneath it. 7/1 3.4 to BCJ Cutting, well done Will Sutherland! Terrific comeback. Fires in the full delivery, Cutting caught back in the crease, plays all around it and that is hitting the middle of middle. Cutting was setting for another back-of-a-length or short delivery, was completely done by the fuller length. 35/2 18.5 to JA Prestwidge, dragged to deep midwicket...a full delivery outside off, another cutter, big swing and it came from low on the bat. 139/6
Samit Patel	4	0	23	1	5.75	10	2	0	0	0
4.6 to AB de Villiers, he's got him! Oh boy. Samit Patel can dine out on this one. Wasn't a great ball, fired in outside leg, de Villiers goes for another sweep, misses, takes the back leg and cannons back into the stumps. 46/3
Zak Evans	2	0	17	0	8.50	5	1	1	0	0
Cameron Boyce	4	0	29	1	7.25	9	1	2	0	0
17.2 to M Labuschagne, slow sweep finds deep midwicket...full outside off, he fetches it high into the leg side, comes off the toe end so he doesn't get the distance. 126/5
Mohammad Nabi	4	0	23	1	5.75	5	1	0	0	0
8.2 to CA Lynn, through him! Lynn goes Big problems for the Heat. A good length ball, skids on, Lynn plays back and misses a square drive. Poor shot. 65/4
Jack Wildermuth	2	0	23	0	11.50	3	2	1	0	0

1.6 to TLW Cooper, taken at deep midwicket, Cooper's fun is over...aiming over the leg side again, another bottom-handed flick, the bottom hand comes off the bat this time. Relief for the Heat. 25/1 9.4 to BJ Webster, cleaned him up! Full and straight, big swing across the line and he's through it too early. Nice off-cutter from Cutting. 68/3
Mujeeb Ur Rahman	4	0	14	1	3.50	14	1	0	1	0
5.1 to DT Christian, taken at cover! Sharp catch Came down the pitch, looking to take advantage of the field restrictions, the bat twists in his hand. Good take above the head by Renshaw. 44/2
