The Scorchers win by 22 runs. They were 4 for 66 at one stage with the bat but Josh Inglis and Jhye Richardson batted brilliantly to set the Hurricanes 180 for victory. Richardson starred with the ball as well taking 4 for 33 to claim Player of the Match honours.
The Scorchers move to outright second on the table. The Hurricanes are stuck in 6th with two games to go and a horror net run-rate.
Thanks for your company tonight. Head over to the second game of the double header in Adelaide with the Sixers facing the Thunder.
full toss glanced fine for four! A poor delivery to finish and Boland picks up a boundary
good length outside off, he swipes this across the line to long on
he charges and backs away, Hardie follows with a yorker and he jams it towards mid on
slower ball but too wide of off
slower ball outside off, Boland swings hard but misses
wide yorker, well bowled, he misses trying to carve it through point
low full toss outside off, he mistimes a drive to long off
full on middle, he whips this from middle stump through square leg to the sweeper
high full toss mishit down the throat of deep cover. Is it a no-ball for above waist high or is it out? David stands his grand. The umpires sent it to the TV umpire. It's line ball. David has lowered into the shot and the third umpire has deemed it's a legal delivery! He's out. He mis hit it high to deep cover and Munro took the catch easily
low full toss, he breaks his bat driving this to long off and they don't run
launched over cover! Finally Richardson misses his length outside off and David got him. Opened the chest and lifted it with brute force over the fence.
low full toss, he carves this along the ground to long off and they don't run
full and wide of off and he beats him with pace
