that's it, done with an over to spare! What was the fuss about? Full and wide outside off, sliced over point. No one there and it clears the boundary and the Scorchers have won three in three
Renegades vs Scorchers, 10th Match at Melbourne, Dec 29 2017 - Ball by Ball Commentary
Scorchers won by 3 wickets (with 6 balls remaining)
10.20pm How do so many of these games come alive so late? It was a cruise of a run-chase till the last few overs when bats got stuck in the turf, needless run-outs and exotic scoops brought the game back. But so hard it is to defend 130 that in spite of that, the Perth Scorchers romped home with six balls to spare.
In the end, the Renegades' score was just not enough. Brad Hogg, Dwayne Bravo and some disciplined bowling made things interesting for a while, but it was always going to be a tough task.
overthrows! There is a direct hit at the bowler's end. It's chaos. Terrific yorker is jammed out towards short cover. Richardson picks up, turns around and hits the stumps at the bowler's end. He is in and they'll make an overthrow
6 off 8. Tye is in
run-out! T20 madness. Full and wide outside off, sliced to point. The batsmen go through for one, the point fielder picks up and throws to Richardson, who takes off the bails at the bowler's end. Hodge at point. That's experience. Run-out by a mile
overpitched outside off, jammed away towards extra cover
a yorker around middle, jammed out towards the bowler, who runs all the way in his follow-through to take off the bails, but the batsman has made it
139 kph, full delivery outside off, beats Richardson on the outside edge
Kane to Jhye
a slower full toss, nudged to deep square leg. That's what Inglis should have done
Richardson.
that's absolutely crazy. What was that all about? Bravo uses the slower ball more often than the normal delivery so why is Inglis trying to play a lap scoop with 9 to win off 14 balls. He misses, the off stump is hit. Poor game awareness
slower full toss outside off, 115 kph, inside-edged past the stumps for three. Wow, Hodge pulls it back. That could have so easily hit the middle of middle, but it runs away down to fine leg. He pushed that boundary back, and stepped on the real estate where the boundary would have been, so four.
1, dot, dot. Pressure. 13 off 15
122 kph, another dot, full and straight, driven back to the bowler
a slower delivery outside off, hit away to cover. Some cheers from the crowd. This game should not have been this tight
slower ball outside off, pushed to long-off
Bravo, he has two overs left, but is it too late?
Hot Lips Glover: "That was not out. Aren't you meant to pull the stump out and hold it with one hand?" Not necessarily. It's just easier to do that than uproot a stump like Ludeman did.
darted in, quick outside off, sliced to deep point
nurdled to deep midwicket
short and wide outside off, 91 kph, creeps past the bat of Inglis
chips down and works the ball to deep square leg for a couple more. Chippy, nippy runs
18 off 22 balls. Five down.
more flight on leg, nudged to midwicket. There is a direct hit at the batsman's end from the fielder, the ball ricochets towards fine leg. Voges calls for the run, but his bat jars into the turf as he completes the run and Ludeman takes the throw from fine leg, and uproots a stump (he had to because the bails were off already) to find Voges short. How does this happen? What an amazing sequence of events.
slow outside off, 86 kph, driven to the bowler
past point for four. The legcutter outside off, slashed away to the left of backward point for a crucial four
Ashton Turner.
picks out long-on. A slower delivery around middle and leg, Cartwright goes back and swats a badly-timed pull to long-on
