Runs against overs. A scorecard gives the score at each wicket but not the over, so each wicket is placed from the balls every batter faced — close, not exact. Wickets are ringed.

No ball-by-ball for this game, so there is no by-phase reading: PlayHQ only has commentary for games scored in its app.
