Commentary

17:46 PM IST: That is all we have in our live coverage of this thriller contest between the Melbourne Stars and the Sydney Thunders, in which the Thunders emerged victorious. This is Samanvaya Sharma, signing off on behalf of Lavil as we will take your leave now. See you soon with another great match. Till then be safe and happy. Goodbye!

Nathan McAndrew (Player of the Match, Sydney Thunder): Bit of a bowler friendly wicket. Stoinis and Maxi were the threat and once they were dismissed, our spinners did the rest. We love playing here and the atmosphere has been really good here. We knew it was defendable but some wickets were really crucial. We knew they were going to come hard in the powerplay and they have a good batting attack. We know Maxi could be someone dangerous and we did well to get his wicket. He loves it, he has been very vocal and we have done well to make him feel young

17:35 PM IST|| Match Summary: Sydney Thunders won by 21 runs.

Oliver Davies 36{35) | Glenn Maxwell 28(21)
Nathan McAndrew 5/16 | Tom Curran 2/26

The Sydney Thunder secured a thrilling victory over the Melbourne Stars at the SCG, defending a modest total in a low-scoring contest that was filled with twists and turns. After winning the toss, the Stars opted to bowl, and the Thunder's batting lineup faced initial difficulties in adjusting to the pitch conditions, which seemed to favor the bowlers.

However, the Thunder's middle order, comprising Matthew Gilkes, Sam Billings, and Oliver Davies, played crucial roles in stabilizing the innings and posting a competitive total. Despite losing wickets at regular intervals, the Thunder's batting unit showed remarkable resilience and determination to ensure that they posted a defendable total.

As the Stars began their chase, they were dealt an early blow when Sam Harper fell to Nathan McAndrew's exceptional bowling in the very first over. Thomas Rogers followed soon after, leaving the Stars reeling at 2/10. Peter Handscomb and Marcus Stoinis attempted to rebuild the innings, but the Thunder's spinners, Tom Andrews and Tanveer Sangha, struck vital blows to derail the Stars' momentum.

Glenn Maxwell's promising innings was cut short, and the Stars' hopes faded further when Tanveer Sangha claimed two wickets in as many balls. The Thunder's bowling unit, led by Nathan McAndrew's outstanding five-wicket haul, restricted the Stars to a below-par total, ultimately securing a thrilling victory for the Thunder.

Nathan McAndrew's impressive bowling performance saw him concede just 16 runs in his four overs, while Tom Andrews and Tanveer Sangha claimed two wickets each.

The Thunder's victory sets up a thrilling Challenger match against the Sydney Sixers on Friday, and the team will be looking to carry their momentum forward into the next match.
