Full commentary

Well the misery continues for Thunders. Mike Hussey was the lone fighter again. 165 looked like a mountain and they never seemed chasing it. Sorry looking scorecard for Thunders were only two out of 11 batsman touched two figure mark. Cameron Gannon was the pick of the bowlers as he bagged 4 crucial wickets in his 2.2 overs to send Thunders packing. C Lynn has been adjudged Man of the Match for his splendid display with the bat. That's it from here. Do join us tomorrow till then take care, cheers!
