17.6
Steyn to Warner, 2 runs, tries to be inventive, effectively sweeps a delivery from full outside off along the ground through midwicket and more excellent running from this pair
 

Free hit

 
17.6
Steyn to Maxwell, (no ball) 1 run, he just can't pitch it at the moment, that's a big full toss and called a no-ball this time...swung into the on side
17.5
Steyn to Warner, 1 run, another full toss, and just over cover! Warner slicing his drive, du Plessis leapt at cover on the edge of the circle
17.4
Steyn to Maxwell, 1 run, full outside off, driven straight to point. They scamper the run and there's no throw due to a lack of backing up
17.3
Steyn to Maxwell, 2 runs, another big full toss, sliced away off a thick outer part of the bat down to third man
 

Now Australia's highest T20 partnership for any wicket. If these two go all the way, they could set a world record

 
17.2
Steyn to Maxwell, 2 runs, backs away to leg against a length delivery, driven through mid-off where du Plessis dives and gets a hand on it...comes up holding his shoulder
17.1
Steyn to Warner, 1 leg bye, full, straight, hint of swing...Warner misses his whip to the leg side and the ball cannons off his pads to the covers
 

Steyn to bowl out
