that's the game. Wait, it's over already? It is. A low full toss and Lynn swipes the full toss over square leg for six. What an innings from Lynn
Hurricanes vs Heat, 10th Match at Brisbane, Dec 30 2016 - Ball by Ball Commentary
Heat won by 7 wickets (with 22 balls remaining)
9.18pm Lynn and McCullum dominated this Friday evening here in Gabba with an unbelievable show of clean ball striking, some of the best strokes this year. They made the chase of 174 look like a dawdle. They chased it down with 22 balls to spare to continue their unbeaten run this year. Beat this team. The Hurricanes bowlers had no answers to the onslaught and eventually succumbed to wounds, partially created by themselves with those dropped chances.
the longer boundary. Still want it? Yea, no problem says Lynn. Runs to the pitch and heaves the ball cleanly over midwicket
144 kph, dabbed towards point for a run. Retains strike
shorter length on middle, Lynn chooses to go leg side this time, no connection
143 kph, low full toss outside off, glided off the open face past backward point who dives to his left but has no chance
if there's pace, use it. Back of a length outside off, Lynn steers the ball over third man with nonchalant ease. 149 kph
whoa, what was that? A swinging full toss down leg. Lynn backed away but was beaten by that swing. Just under waist
back of a length on middle, Lynn misses his pull. Beaten by bounce
Tait to resume
cut away to deep point
dropped. Will go down as a chance, but it wasn't. Absolutely bludgeons back. Boyce saves runs by getting his hands to the ball
clean. Just a checked lofted drive. Gets to the pitch, then goes with the spin. What timing and power behind that stroke
short and wide, 81 kph, cut to deep point
played nicely, Lets the ball come to him before deflecting the ball past point for a couple
drilled to long-on for one. Broad gets across to his left to save runs
nurdled towards deep square leg for a couple. Good running, perfectly judged.
safe again. Whaaaat? Back of a length outside off, Lynn gets a thick top edge which lands wide of third man. One more that Lynn gets away with
145 kph, back of a length on the hips. Burns can't get bat on his flick, but Heat get one via a leg bye off the thigh pad
nicely driven to deep cover for a couple. Nice full face
wow, 144 kph swinging delivery and straight. Ross has no idea what has happened? He's undone by pure pace, add swing to that and you get wickets. Ross looks to work the ball into the leg side, but the ball goes past his closed bat face and hits leg stump.
full and straight, Lynn gives himself room and slashes a square drive to the sweeper cover
