18.6
Ben Sanderson to Will Rhodes Off-pace again, outside off on a length. Rhodes heaves it towards deep midwicket, calls for two and then, hares back in a sprightly manner to complete it. They need 14 runs off the final over, but Rhodes will be at the non-striker's end.

18.5
Ben Sanderson to Will Rhodes Off-pace, outside off, on a length. Agriculturally dragged towards the left of deep backward square leg for a quick couple. 16 needed off 7 balls now.

18.4
Ben Sanderson to James Minto OUCH! Sanderson has hurt himself. Harsh to call it a dropped catch, even though technically it is. Back of a length, slower ball, outside off. Minto unleashed a tennis-like forehand smash. The ball came to Sanderson at the rate of knots. He attempted to catch it by putting his hands in the right place at the eleventh hour, and in that copped up an injury. But after some treatment from the physio, he wants to continue.

18.2 Four
Ben Sanderson to James Minto STREAKY FOUR! The crowd erupts. Can the debutant prove to be the lucky charm? Attempted yorker outside off. Minto threw his bat at it and the ball raced off the toe end, into the gap between short third and backward point. 19 needed off 10 balls.
