	ML Love	b Harwood	41	96	58	6	0	70.68
	24.2 quick and straight and Love stays on the crease and is defeated all ends up. What a shame he couldn't score one last hundred for his beloved Bulls. 70/2

	38.1 Nannes shapes it back into Hartley who falls across his stumps and is hit in line with off stump, the Bushrangers appeal and that is as adjacent as they come 117/6
