Hurricanes vs Strikers, 17th Match at Hobart, Jan 04 2018 - Ball by Ball Commentary

superb last over from Archer. Short down leg, pulled away towards midwicket. Archer sprints after it, but can't get there. The Strikers can't run nine either, so the Hurricanes put up a seven-run victory

the crowd goes wild. Full and straight, hit out to mid-off. And without an extra, this game is done

superb bowling, a 144 yorker on leg. Not much Rashid can do but jam it out to mid-off

good length on leg, Rashid backs away and swings, badly bunted away towards midwicket. Falls in no-man's land, for two!

gone? Bye or run-out. A yorker outside off, creeps underneath the bat. Wade rips off the glove and throws the stumps down at the batsman's end with Wells short. Is that the match? Three dots in succession. The game has swung

plumb in front! 144 kph, a low full toss and dead straight. Lehmann misses a flick, misses the ball and is struck in front of leg. Was it sliding down? Didn't look like it. Another dot ball. New man in. Hurricanes in front now?

DOT BALL! Short outside off, and quick. Wells tries to cut the ball through third man but fails to connect. Good idea, but just missed out on four

another back of the hand slower delivery outside off, pulled to deep midwicket, just one more

strays down leg for a wide. Wants to cramp the batsman for room, but can't miss your slot

nicely bowled, another slower delivery outside off, Wells thinks of slog-sweeping, taps a cut to point instead.

107 kph, a chip to mid-on. Another back-of-the-hand slower delivery outside off, bunted away towards mid-on. Did not read it at all, straight up

another awful delivery. Full down leg again, Wells misses out on five runs, clipped down to fine leg.

big six. Poor ball. The slower ball but on middle and leg, Wells walks across and helps himself to six over square leg, just flipped around the corner. Bad bowling

excellently bowled, oh no, wide called. 144 kph, a bouncer outside off, Wells is hurried for pace, misses a pull, but it rises over the head, good call

Christian errs and Lehmann goes big. Full around off, Lehmann shuffles across, gets into position and slogs a sweep over midwicket. Short boundary

a slower wide delivery outside off, jammed away to long-off for two more. Good running, 10 off this over

a slower delivery outside off, 113 kph, drilled to the deep cover boundary. No man there with every one focussing on the leg side

a slower full toss outside off, 111 kph, dragged to long-on with such bad timing that they get two. Just terrific bowling from Christian, a clear plan every ball

full and wide outside off, 115 kph, carved to point. DOT

a wide yorker outside off, concedes a wide. With batsmen able to hit sixes off their first delivery, Christian wasn't taking the risk
