spooned away to cow corner, where the fielder dived forward to try and give Conway a hat-trick. He doesn't quite do it, but the Strikers win, and eliminate Thunder in the process. That Khawaja dismissal takes on more significance, but credit to Adelaide in what has been a BBL classic

Cutting holes out to long-on, and Strikers can reach out and touch it It was in the slot to smash away for six, but for once, Cutting can't the power, putting Strikers' fate into their own hands

he's skied that, and despite Carey doing his best to dissuade him, Thornton takes a splendid catch. They didn't see each other and clatter into one another, but how cool was Thornton? Catches it, tosses it into the air, and signals out. They're both fine

swing and a miss. Conway went really slow - just 105 kph, and Ross missed it completely

he comes down the track, but only gets a top-edge. That works, though, teasing Fawad Ahmed at short third man. he hasn't caught that one, mind you; it's run away over his head for four

short, slower bouncer. Through the pull shot way too early as it cuffs him on the helmet. They run through for one

biffed down to long-on

squeezed out to mid-off for a single, and that's Ross's 50. My Player of the Match is Thunder win this

slower ball, little edge onto it for a single

short at not much pace, allowing Cutting to muscle it away to midwicket for four. Siddle will be disappointed with that delivery

full and wide, as Cutting backed away, he couldn't quite reach it

helped down to long-on; that Power Surge has worked out for Thunder quite well

evades Peter Siddle - it was uppish, very close to mid-off. But the moment it beats that man, it's four, and Thudner are in the ascendancy now

slower short ball. Saw the batter coming out of his crease and adjusted his length. It's worked to short fine

nudges this to short fine leg

not the best ball. Going down leg stump, and Cutting helps it past fine leg for four. Bit of a putaway, that was, from Conway

takes the pace off, and Ross eases it into the onside

that's plumb, or it looks that way. Yorker onto middle, and the umpire raises the finger. Sams goes off shaking his head, but unless it got an inside edge, that's a very obvious decision
