Commentary

Over 18

11:23 AM

Abbott to Swepson, out Caught by Josh Philippe!! He nails the coffin. Swepson moves away to a slower bumper, obviously doesn't read it as he tries an upper-cut of sorts over the slip cordon. But is undone by the lack of pace and all he gets is a feather off the toe-end to the keeper. A massive win, 79-run large. Swepson c Josh Philippe b Abbott 2(4)

11:23 AM

Tom Curran to Swepson, 1 run, moves away, swings big and toe-ends it out to cover

over-break

11:22 AM

Tom Curran to Doggett, out Caught by Abbott!! It's a procession and Curran's leading it out. Off the back of his palm, half way down the pitch and Doggett shapes up after making some room to cart it downtown. But can only get enough distance equalling to that of where long-on is. Doggett c Abbott b Tom Curran 6(7)

WICKET

11:22 AM

Tom Curran to Swepson, 1 run, 130.8kph, full toss. Swepson steps aside, carving it through sweeper

11:21 AM

Tom Curran to Swepson, no run, back of the hand slower one. Swepson tries making room and lofting it over cover, but no, is completely foxed by the lack of pace on it

11:21 AM

Tom Curran to Lalor, out Bowled!! Another yorker, another death-knell. Lalor makes it worse with his charge down the pitch, and then is completely beaten up for pace as well and is just not able to get his bat down in time. Middle-stump. Lalor b Tom Curran 13(9) [4s-1 6s-1]

WICKET

11:21 AM

Tom Curran to Doggett, 3 runs, well disguised slower one. Doggett tonks it straight, doesn't time, and gets it high up in the skies, but safely wide of long-off's diving attempt

Over 16

11:16 AM

Steve OKeefe to Doggett, 1 run, drifting into the pads, Doggett tries to whip, but can only tickle it towards where a short mid-wicket would've been

over-break

11:16 AM

Steve OKeefe to Doggett, no run, dips in the blockhole outside off. Jammed drive, back down the pitch

11:15 AM

Steve OKeefe to Lalor, 1 run, jumps down, carving it away straight to the man at extra cover, and has to stretch every bit in making it in for the quick single

11:14 AM

Steve OKeefe to Lalor, no run, drags the length back with a slower one. Slapped straight back to the bowler

11:14 AM

Steve OKeefe to Lalor, SIX, just enough legs. OKeefe darts in a quick one for Lalor to smack across the line, which he does with a slog-sweep over cow corner

Key Moments

11:31 AM

That's all we have for you from the SCG, where the Sixers have done it in style to reverse their two-match losing streak in keeping themselves among the favourites to qualify for the knockouts. Heat, though, have a lot of soul-searching to do, perhaps even figure out if this is the batting lineup they intend to go ahead with. Anyway, we'll see you around soon with another fun encounter, and until then, ta ta!!
