Tyrone Kane	19	4	35	2	1.84	98	4	0	0	2
4.1 to C Dougherty, Takes the edge and straight to first slip. 23/1 41.5 to JNK Shannon, 2nd slip came in for Shannon who goes for the drive and goes head high to gully, safe catch. 213/3
Peter Chase	20	3	90	1	4.50	96	13	1	0	5
92.4 to HT Tector, Drives outside off but Chase finds the edge and Tucker holds on waist high. 344/7
Josh Little	16.3	1	95	3	5.75	65	11	2	0	6
33.5 to MP Ellison, Tried to turn to leg, taken on the pad and although it looked high, umpire Kennedy raises the finger. 165/2 99.5 to Nathan Smith, Trapped in the crease and the ball came back. 389/8 109.3 to MR Adair, Another batsman falls in the 90s. Ball hurries on him so can only get top edge from the pull shot and bowler follows through to take the catch. And that's the declaration. 440/9

Nathan Smith	26	4	95	1	3.65	121	15	0	0	6

Mark Adair	22	4	80	1	3.63	102	12	0	0	3
83.6 to Simi Singh, Follows up a good ball with another and this time finds the edge and low to second slip. 281/4
James Cameron-Dow	30	4	92	2	3.06	124	8	1	0	0
75.5 to J Anderson, Pushed forward and umpire Kennedy says that took the edge, batsman doesn't seem to agree but certainly a bonus wicket for Knights. Was playing well. 245/3 115.6 to GH Dockrell, Down the pitch and beaten by the turn and Rock demolishes the stumps. 397/6
Gary Kidd	25	4	75	1	3.00	103	6	1	0	0

James Shannon	2	0	7	1	3.50	8	1	0	0	0
