inside edge and it runs away fine for the winning run! It ran for four but the batsmen touched for the winning run prior to it reaching the rope so he only gets one.

Full commentary
A comprehensive win for the Hurricanes. It was set up with the ball. They bowled magnificently to restrict the Strikers to 143. Dan Christian took 5 for 14 and Stuart Broad bowled beautifully as well. Then a 105-run opening stand between D'Arcy Short and Tim Paine in just 12 overs allowed the Hurricanes to cruise to victory. Short was impressive again with his second half-century of the tournament. Dan Christian is named man of the match for his 5 for 14, the second best figures in BBL history.
Thanks for your company from Bellerive. Join us again tomorrow night when the Brisbane Heat host the Sydney Sixers at the Gabba.
