It must be intimidating to get advice from Shane Warne when you're a leg spinner as Mason Crane was on the boundary edge before this set of five. He's some mentor, though. Crane reacts well to that initial boundary, keeping it tight after.

Right between the fielders. Short picks his spot perfectly to pull Mason Crane for four.

You never know until you've seen at least part of the chase in action, but you'd have to say Spirit are on top at the halfway point.

Here comes a bit more pace, courtesy of Chris Wood.
Eoin Morgan dives to prevent a four off the first ball, but nobody can stop the second being pummelled to the rope. Valuable runs for the Rockets from Short.

A superb 20 balls from Nabi. Top, top stuff. Just 20 off them and two wickets taken.

Malan c&b Nabi 9 (Rocket 49-2)
Nabi strikes again!
Malan looks to make something happen but gets a leading edge and Nabi does the rest to take the catch on the dive.
Another big wicket for the home side, who are turning the screw.
That Mexican Wave is stopped in its tracks.
Rockets 49-1published at Ball 42
There is a big crowd here now. They're just on simmer at the moment, though, with the Rockets looking to build again after the Hales wicket.
Nabi is milked for a few as a Mexican Wave starts up. Always a sign that a game is in a mini lull.

Steady stuff from the Rockets. Spirit using their 'pace-off' approach really well.

Mason Crane. It's a full-on spin assault from Spirit. He starts well.
