Stars vs Sixers, 15th Match at Carrara, BBL, Dec 26 2020 - Match Result

terrible ball, O'Keefe fans on it but they get four runs regardless to win a thriller! Thigh high full toss on middle stump, O'Keefe swings wildly over the top of it but it clips the thigh to go past the keeper and beats short third man as well up in the ring to race away to the rope! Sixers win by one wicket with a ball to spare!

Hughes goes for glory trying to end the match and bring up a century with one blow, but he picks out deep midwicket! Cartwright has been a magnet for the ball in the field and claims this one calmly two yards inside the rope at head height. It was a half-volley on the legs, in the slot to crack over the ropes but he just dragged it too flat, didn't get the elevation.

length ball on the stumps, it's in the slot for Brathwaite to launch but miscues this off the toe and Maxwell positions himself three yards in from the rope at long-on.

He holds on regardless.

yorker on the legs, inside edged flick to deep fine leg for a single.
