Hammond is trying to get creative with some reverse hits. Not really coming off.

Seriously, you need to see that Mullaney catch. We will have a clip for you ASAP.
Carter is back on as Rockets looks to turn the screw.

Commentator on BBC Radio 5 Live Sports ExtraSteve Mullaney, what a brilliant catch. He took one hand off the ball as he started to land over the rope, threw it up in time and took it safely two-handed.
It's one of the most wonderful catch you'll see. It's absolutely outrageous. Seeing is believing with that - it was hit so hard and you have to have the presence of mind to know exactly when to throw it back up in the air.

OH YES! AWESOME CATCH!
Livingstone hits to long off, where Mullaney takes it, lobs it up while he steps over the rope and then reclaims the ball.
Just wonderful.

Brilliant fielding. A dive from Sam Cook at mid-wicket stops the concession of another four. The Phoenix move to three figures.

Madness. Phoenix go for a quick single that Rashid charges to field off his own bowling and throw at the sticks. He misses and it leads to an overthrow.

Hammond is away with a little pulled punch of a shot to leg.

Excellent from De Lange. He has checked the Phoenix progress here with a magnificent set.

Allen b De Lange 29 (Phoenix 95-2)
THAT'S WHAT YOU CAN DO!
That was quick. It was also full and directed right at leg stump. Too good for Allen.

Marchant de Lange returns to fight fire with fire.
Livingstone somehow whips a four off his toes. What can you do as a bowler?

The Rockets take a much-needed tactical timeout. Chance to regroup after that onslaught.
