Mohammad Nabi to Joe Clarke, OUT! CAUGHT! That's a fabulous catch and Clarke has to go for a duck! Short ball on off, Clarke looks to go over long on but does not get the required power on it. Mason Crane jumps and takes a wonderful catch. It looked like the ball would go over the ropes but Crane timed his jump to perfection and then after taking it, made sure that he doesn't lose his balance and go over!

Mason Crane to Tom Lammonby, SIX! Nearly, Mohammad Nabi, nearly! He came so close to saving runs here but you can't fault him for his effort. Around middle, Tom Lammonby skips down and hits it towards long on. Mohammad Nabi hops and looks to push the ball out of the ropes, but the ball hits his hand, and does not go out of the ropes. A biggie.

Brad Wheal to Tom Hartley, OUT! RUN OUT! Harrison is short and now Manchester Originals will need 7 in 1 ball. Low full toss outside off, Hartley looks to drive but it goes off the outer half to third man. They had to come back for two and they take off. Blake Cullen collects and throws it to Adam Rossington who whips the bails off. The third umpire is called for and the replays show Hartley is short.
