Hope you enjoyed the coverage. I certainly enjoyed bringing it to you. Until next time, it's goodbye from the commentary desk. Cheers!
Adil Rashid is the Man of the Match for his figures of 2 for 21 off four overs
The Scorchers were guilty of bowling either too short or too full. They couldn't find the middle line that generally tends to yield success on these kind of surfaces. But there were positives in the form of David Willey, who bowled his heart out even though the scorecard may suggest otherwise. Brad Hogg showed he still has it in him at 44. Adam Voges was fantastic with the bat earlier in the evening too.
Two wins in as many games for Adelaide Strikers. This one must be just a touch sweeter as it comes against a champion side. We thought Perth Scorchers would be 10-15 short. Well, it looks like they would have been 20 short on the night. The Adelaide chase was steered expertly by Mahela Jayawardene and Alex Ross, who allayed any fears of a middle order wobble. Worth mentioning that Jason Gillespie, who has enjoyed tremendous success with Yorkshire in England, has made a good start to his coaching career with the Strikers.
