short ball outside the off stump. Naved pulls it to long-on and atkes a couple. Sixers will meet Scorchers at Perth in the final
Sixers vs Hurricanes, 2nd semi-final at Hobart, Jan 22 2012 - Ball by Ball Commentary
The knock by Maddinson, bowling by the spinners, economical first spell by Lee and finally, the double wicket over by Smith contributed to the difference between the teams. Naved tried his best, but he had too much to get in the final over. Once he mistimed the scoop of the second ball, it was Sixers match to lose. O'Keefe's contribution on the field will not be visible on the scorecard but the diving saves and the acrobatic catch certainly made the difference
