The table toppers win it comfortably with a dominant performance. the bowlers had done their job and made it easy for the batters.
They lost 2 wickets early on, but Hardie and Inglis got together a 54 run partnership and helped them get over the line. Hardie missed out on a 50 but he will be happy with the result for his team. They both were slowly moving towards this total but then they suddenly scored 3 sixers off Grandhomme as soon as he came on.
Boyce was the lone man to get wickets has he picked 2. They started off with a run out, but with not much runs to defend they are the losing side today. The last game becomes a must win for them.
11.1 Matthew Short to Josh Inglis, FOUR! GAME.SET.MATCH. A commanding win for the Scorchers. Pitched up angling outside off-stump, Inglis reverses and helps it behind square on the off-side. There is a huge vacant space in that deep backward point region and it trickles into the fence.
Just 2 from the over and a wicket. We get another over but the game is almost done and dusted.
