Big wicket for the Lightning. 50/38.2 The Knights captain falls! Wilson comes out of his ground and looks to hit the ball into the covers, Singh pushes it a little wide of him and Wilson can't get any bat on the ball. Tucker whips off the bails and he is out by a long way 57/57 the experiment fails! Adair tamely chips the ball back down the pitch and into Singh's waiting hands. 52/49.3 Kane gets another! Full ball, the batter looks to play it from the crease, no foot movement and as the ball comes back in off the pitch he misses and Kane's ball clips the top of off-stump 65/613.1 its a horrible delivery from Dockrell, far too short. Getkate is falling backwards as he pulls the ball towards cow corner. Kane is in the right place and takes the catch. 87/715.3 looks to give himself some room and hack the ball over the off-side, van der Walt misses it by a long way and middle stump gets knocked back. 100/819.5 hits the ball toward long-off, Mulder is always struggling to get back for the second and KOB throw is arrow straight to the keeper and Tucker takes off the bails. 127/920 hits the ball towards KOB at long-on again, they have to come back for a second and Manley is miles out of his ground. 128/9Extras9 (lb 3, w 6)TOTAL128 all out (20 Overs, RR: 6.4)Fall of wickets: 1-4 (Ross Adair, 0.3 ov), 2-47 (James McCollum, 5.3 ov), 3-50 (Harry Tector, 6.2 ov), 4-52 (Mark Adair, 6.6 ov), 5-57 (Gary Wilson, 8.2 ov), 6-65 (Ruhan Pretorius, 9.3 ov), 7-87 (Shane Getkate, 13.1 ov), 8-100 (CJ van der Walt, 15.3 ov), 9-127 (Jacob Mulder, 19.5 ov), 10-128 (Josh Manley, 19.6 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR4.1 guides the ball towards Tector at backward point, Doheny is slow to get going from the non-strikers end. Tector hits the stumps with a direct hit and Doheny has go go 35/21.5 nice way to come back from that! KOB pulls the ball towards the square leg boundary, Pretorius is on the boundary and makes sure he judges it well not to go over the rope. Manley is delighted with that 21/111.2 Got Him! Tucker takes a step down the pitch and pushes his bat out at the ball, the ball spins past the bat and Wilson gladly takes off the bails. 76/47.3 Campher looks to hammer the ball into the legside, gets a lot of air on it and Mulder comes running in off the square leg boundary to take the catch 55/317.3 Kane looks to pull the ball again, he is beaten for pace and the bails go flying.
