Melbourne Stars win by 52 runs and Haris Rauf collects the match ball from the umpire and holds it to the crowd. A very good all-round performance with Rauf taking the headlines after it was set up by Marcus Stoinis. A word, too, for the bowling of Glenn Maxwell which was vital to knock over Short and Miller. The Hurricanes were poor in the field for the first 10 overs and made some odd team selections in leaving out George Bailey and James Faulkner. I'll wrap things you there for this match, you can head over shortly and catch the action from the SCG where the Sixers take on the Heat. I'll catch you again tomorrow, thanks for joining us.

Zampa to Meredith, OUT

that's it, all over, as he has a big swing to the leg side, gets beaten on the inside edge and that's a swift piece of glovework from Handscomb

done him with the slower ball and he has five! What a day he has had. That's a lovely piece of bowling. Sends down the slower one, Ellis gave himself room and missed

Lamichhane to Rose, 1 leg bye

big appeal for lbw as he doesn't pick the googly, that looked very straight! On the knee roll in front of all three. Was hitting leg stump

Farooq Tahir: "What a story Haris Rauf. He was playing tape ball cricket for local street teams in Pakistan and what a transformation. Bowling in Big Bash and PSL. Pakistan selectors must be looking this..."
