Full commentary

Klinger walks off a very happy man with 133 not out off 128 balls. No prizes for guessing who takes the Man of the Match award!

A rousing ovation from the small but partisan crowd here at the Adelaide Oval for Klinger who deserves all the recgonition he receives as a result of this innings and his season to date!

A very exciting match here this evening. The Tigers will be disappointed not to defend their very competitive 310 but in the end they lacked any real penetration at the top of the innings to put pressure on the Redbacks from the get o

Thanks for joining us here tonight. The Redbacks have got up comfortably by 6 wickets to give them an outside hope of turning their season around. On behalf of the crew at Cricinfo, this is Marc Ellison saying thank you and good night!
