Rogers to Wells, FOUR, gets out the paddle, pure premeditation but it is smart. He helps it past short fine leg and it races away for four. Just 24 in the last five overs which means the Hurricanes haven't yet been blown away, but they still have a steep chase on their hands thanks to a super opening partnership from Short and Carey

Rogers to Kelly, OUT, top-edged, and the keeper takes another easy catch

2
Rogers to Wells, 2 runs, smashed straight back to the bowler, who got a hand on it, but it was all pure instinct, and it pops out of his hand
19.1
W
Rogers to Renshaw, OUT, slaps it straight to cow corner. The timing has just completely left the Strikers' and finally the Hurricanes are beginning to exploit that
MT Renshaw c Jewell b Rogers 7 (10m 5b 1x4 0x6) SR: 140.00

Boland to Renshaw, 1 run, full, smashed down the ground but only for a single
18.5

Boland to Renshaw, FOUR, no control, but this time the top edge carries over the keeper and past short fine leg to trickle away for four. They'd been struggling for runs for a while, and it almost feels like that breaks the shackles
18.4
1
Boland to Wells, 1 run, pulled into the onside but nowhere near in control of that shot
John: "Very much the Strikers style... start great, collapse,repeat"

Boland to Renshaw, 1 run, grew big on him, that one, catching him on the top of the bat

Boland to Wells, no run, skips down the ground but the slower pace of the ball does for him completely

Meredith to Wells, 1 run, worked into the onside to keep the strike. Excellent over to sign off from Meredith
17.5
1
Meredith to Renshaw, 1 run, worked to midwicket
17.4
W
Meredith to Cockbain, OUT, spoons this one to cow corner, and the Hurricanes pick up another wicket. The wheels have come off for the Strikers since the openers fell, and the Hurricanes need to continue chipping away to make the job easier for their batters
IA Cockbain c Short b Meredith 3 (9m 6b 0x4 0x6) SR: 50.00
17.3
0
Meredith to Cockbain, no run, swing and a miss, beaten by the extra bounce and pace
17.2
W
Meredith to Head, OUT, never looked like he'd got enough on this, and he does indeed hole out to Handscomb at wide long-on. It was a good catch, he had to move a fair bit to his left, but it's very well judged in the end
TM Head c Handscomb b Meredith 5 (15m 7b 0x4 0x6) SR: 71.42

Meredith to Cockbain, 1 run, banged into the surface, and Cockbain only catches it off the toe-end of his bat

16.5
1
Rogers to Head, 1 run, slapped down to long-off
16.4
1
Rogers to Cockbain, 1 run, took the pace off the ball. He gets off the mark with a pull in front of square

Rogers to Cockbain, no run, short and wide - Cockbain was through his shot much too early and playing down the wrong line anyway

1
Rogers to Head, 1 run, smeared towards long-on
