Hurricanes vs Stars, 17th Match at Hobart, BBL 2023, Dec 28 2023 - Match Result

proper chaos, and the Stars have won this by seven wickets, with three balls to spare! Length on middle and off. Maxwell unfurls the reverse again and slams it towards backward point. The ball hits the fielder on his knee and it deflects past short third, who is running to his right trying to cover it. Rolls away far enough to allow both batters to scamper back for three, and the Stars, after all the drama, finally have their second win on the bounce!

banged in short on off stump. Rogers gets onto the back foot and pulls it on the bounce to deep mid wicket. That was not very far away from carrying to the sweeper

hard length on off stump. Comes onto Rogers quicker than he anticipates and also cramps him for room. Stabs it towards the bowler, and the Hurricanes begin the over with a dot

dot ball! Shortish outside off. Maxwell gets on top of the bounce and times his cut well. Cannot get it past backward point, though

into the blockhole outside off. Maxwell cannot get under it and squeezes it out to mid off

very full on off stump. Rogers digs it out towards mid off and scampers across to the other end

was that a chance?! Slow and short outside off. Rogers sits deep in his crease and pummels it in the general direction of extra cover. Hain got a hand to it but did it carry? Looks like it did. To add insult to injury, that went through his hands and into the fence!

full and hung outside off again. Goes past Rogers' flailing blade and sneaks just inside the tramlines too

off-pace on a length outside off. Rogers advances but has to reach out because of how wide it is. Scuffed to extra cover in the end

wow, just wow! Ventures into the slot on off stump, and gets punished. Maxwell brings out the reverse and crrrunccchhheeees it high and long over the deep point fence!

spears this down leg, and that is not what the Hurricanes would have wanted. Maxwell failed to make contact and the umpire had no qualms in calling it a wide

fired into the pads. Rogers has a mow at it and misses. The ball pings off his pads into the off side, and the Stars get a leg bye

short and darted into the body. Maxwell swivels nicely and pulls it away towards deep backward square leg

length outside off. Rogers comes down the track and punches it uppishly towards long off

four more! Too short and too wide outside off. Rogers throws the plumbing at it and butchers it past backward point. The sweeper on the cover point fence puts in a sprawling dive but in vain!

oh dear! Length outside off. Rogers gets down on one knee and smears it towards long on. David seems to lose it in the lights and perhaps overruns it. The ball bounces in front of him and bobbles into the fence!

what a shot that is, my word! Full and wide outside off, and Jordan thinks he has bowled it outside Maxwell's arc. Maxwell, though, gives himself ample room, peels the outer cover off the ball and creams it over backward point for six!

off-pace on a back of a length outside off. Maxwell reaches out for it and flat-bats it over the bowler's head for a brace

clean as a whistle! Slot ball on middle and leg. Maxwell sits deep in his crease, whips his wrists through the ball and sends it flat over the deep square leg fence. Almost took out a couple of his teammates in the dugout!

back of a length on middle and leg. Rogers gets up on his toes and works it towards deep mid wicket
