Evan Jones to Marco Jansen, out Caught by (sub)Corbin Bosch!! 121kph, this time he holes out! Back of a length ball outside off, Jansen makes decent contact as he tries to wallop it over long-off. But he's hit this one against the wind. Bosch, at long-off, runs in initially and then takes a couple of steps backwards to complete the catch. Marco Jansen c (sub)Corbin Bosch b Evan Jones 13(10) [6s-1]

Ngidi to Marco Jansen, SIX, wow! That's just incredible. Short of a length ball and that's a superb lofted on-drive from Jansen. Stands tall in his crease after slightly moving leg-side and hits it on the rise. High elbow and he poses for the photographs! Went a long way over wide long-on

Ngidi to J Fuller, out Bowled!! Chopped on! Fuller skips down the track to heave across the line and only manages an inside edge that clatters onto the sticks. It was the off-cutter on a short of length from Ngidi. J Fuller b Ngidi 1(4)

Phehlukwayo to Tristan Stubbs, out Caught by Evan Jones!! 106kph, slow, full and wide of off, Tristan Stubbs swings his bat hard to try and loft it over wide long-on. Goes a mile up in the air, however doesn't have the wings to go all the way. More height than distance. Jones, at long-on, waits for this high ball and gobbles it up. Phehlukwayo is pumped up as he has the last laugh against Stubbs. The wind going against the batter, was slogging against it and it hung in the air for an eternity. Tristan Stubbs c Evan Jones b Phehlukwayo 18(17) [4s-3]

Phehlukwayo to Marco Jansen, 2 runs, in the air ... and ... safe! Jansen, with his head pointed towards the ground, shapes up to lift this fuller length delivery over mid-on. The bat turns at the point of impact and ends up slicing it over extra cover. It's out of a back-pedalling Miller's reach. The gutsy wind saving Jansen here

Ngidi to Tristan Stubbs, no run, pitched up delivery, driven back at the bowler who flicks the ball to try and run the non-striker out. Marco Jansen was out of his crease but Ngidi missed the target

Shamsi to Smuts, out Lbw!! LBW appeal, up goes the finger. Smuts has a word with his partner and signals 'T'. Scrambled seam legbreak, full in length and Smuts misses the sweep to get hit on the front pad. Not much turn. Firstly, was there any bat? Flat line on UltraEdge as the ball scoots under his blade. Over to ball-tracking and it's three reds! Hitting middle and leg. The onfield call stays and the Sunrisers lose their fourth wicket along with a review. Just when a partnership started to look threatening, Paarl find the breakthrough. Smuts lbw b Shamsi 65(49) [4s-9]

Evan Jones to Tristan Stubbs, FOUR, four more! Tristan Stubbs backs away and Jones follows him. Easy pickings for the batsman who pulls it away to the long leg fence. The fielder at fine leg had no chance to cut it off. 14 runs off the over!

Phehlukwayo to Markram, out Bowled!! Phehlukwayo is pumped up! Short of a length ball, Markram walks forward and shapes up to heave/pull it through mid-wicket and gets beaten by the lack of bounce. The ball scoots under his blade to uproot the off-stump. The 44-run stand has been broken. Markram b Phehlukwayo 15(19)

Evan Jones to Hermann, out Caught by Buttler!! No need to appeal for this, a big sound and off goes Hermann - came down the pitch, made room for the slap and got a thin edge through to the keeper, couldn't get going at all and falls trying to break the shackles. Jones celebrates, thought he had his man on the previous delivery, but he definitely deserved this wicket. Hermann c Buttler b Evan Jones 4(10)

Evan Jones to Hermann, no run, shout for caught behind, the Royals were already celebrating and it's not given on-field. So they review. Was short and at the stumps, Hermann was swivelling across on the pull, UltraEdge confirms that it's come only off the thigh. Too high and can't be LBW either, Royals lose a review

Miller leaps and Miller comes up with a fine catch, you'd think this was coming - Rossington was trying to manufacture room on every ball, Fortuin kept it full and straight, having backed away, the right-hander couldn't get the power behind the lofted drive - Miller back-pedalled at mid-off and leaps to complete a fine catch.
