Commentary

This has been a match of some absolute drama! A match that felt like was the match for the Renegades to win turned out to be the match that the Hurricanes would win to go into the play offs of the Big Bash League! This was surely not an easy task for the Hurricanes as they would have expected in the start of the innings, as the openers from the first over itself looked like were going to chase the score down and after the fall of the first wicket the Hurricanes had absolutely no idea, that there was a hurricane of runs approaching towards them.

Marsh and Finch after the wicket of Seymour have absolutely demolished the batting attack as they got a 100 run partnership which it looked like was going to be it for the Hurricanes as the bowlers could do nothing but watch the ball go past the boundary rope. The Hurricanes were down and out and they were seeing nothing but "stars" in the night time until it was Lamichhane, who got them the wicket of Shaun Marsh and broke one of the most important partnership of the game!

It was not so long after that when Rogers got his two wickets in two deliveries just at the nick of time which did nothing but added pressure on the Renegades and in the last over drama, there was absolutely no one to hit those big winning runs out of the park as the Hurricanes seal the victory and head for the play offs! Looks like Glenn Maxwell's wish did not come true for this tournament.

Thank you so much for joining us for a thriller Big Bash league contest. This is Pratyush Rohra and myself (Pranav Danani) taking your leave. If you are wondering what next, then don't worry as we have a lot more cricketing action being covered as we have the Sri Lanka vs Zimbabwe's 2nd innings coming up along with some Under 19 World Cup action between England and Canada coming your way.

Hobart Hurricanes won by 6 runs

Aaron Finch, Player of the Match: Some slow going through the middle overs with Darcy and Sandeep bowling well, but we got the momentum after that. Could have been a bit better through the 5-8 over mark and that was disappointing. He (Shaun Marsh) is playing so well and just keeps getting better and better and he is a fantastic team man. Quick turnaround for us and playing the Thunder tomorrow.

19.6 Riley Meredith to Will Sutherland, THE HURRICANES HOLD THEIR NERVE AND CLINCH THEIR FINALS BERTH! It was another full toss as Meredith missed his yorker but Sutherland couldn't make it count. Only got height and no distance as Wade from mid-off swoops in around the mid-on area and holds onto the catch to wrap up the proceedings. Hobart Hurricanes clinch victory by a margin of 6 runs.

Will Sutherland c Wade b Meredith 6 (6m 4b 1x4 0x6)

19.5 Riley Meredith to Will Sutherland, FOUR! Missed his yorker on this occasion and Sutherland punished it! Clears his front foot and drills this past mid-off to find the ropes. Right then. A six to force a super over.

19.4 Riley Meredith to Sam Harper, full toss on the off-stump line, Harper shuffles across but misses out on that occasion. Can only work it towards fine leg for a single. 11 off 2...

19.3 Riley Meredith to Will Sutherland, nails the yorker outside off-stump, Sutherland makes some room drills a drive extra-cover. Just another single

19.2 Riley Meredith to Sam Harper, DIRECT HIT! Good length delivery with some extra bounce, Harper shuffles across and misses out as the ball goes over the stumps. The batters sneak through for a bye and Sutherland has made his ground comfortably.

19.1 Riley Meredith to Will Sutherland, full delivery angling down the leg side, Sutherland flicks it off his pads towards fine leg. Excellent fielding by Rogers to ensure there's no second run there.

The over has turned the entire game around and this could go either way! Riley Meredith, 3-0-20-0, to bowl the last over of this match.
