That's a monstrous total for Perth Scorchers, the third highest in BBL history, but the boundaries are small so Melbourne Stars will believe they have a chance. Terrific batting throughout, started by Faf du Plessis and capped off by Josh Inglis. Adam Zampa the only bowler to go at under tens. For those linking Inglis' innings to the IPL auction, his name isn't on the lists we have. I'll be back in a few minutes for the chase

Wood to Richardson, OUT, terrific catch at mid-off! Back of a length, Richardson can't quite clear the in-field, a leaping catch and it's five for Wood

JA Richardson c Webster b Wood 0 (2m 1b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00

19.5
W
Wood to Hardie, OUT, a thin top edge as he pulls at a short delivery, Wood clawing back the over somewhat

AM Hardie c †Clarke b Wood 30 (34m 17b 1x4 3x6) SR: 176.47

19.4
1
Wood to Agar, 1 run, well bowled, gets the yorker in, a thick outside edge to the off side
19.3
W
Wood to Inglis, OUT, driven to mid-off, neat catch...back of a length, driving on the up, doesn't quite get the placement

JP Inglis c Webster b Wood 74 (49m 33b 5x4 6x6) SR: 224.24

19.2
1
Wood to Hardie, 1 run, gets this full at leg stump, pushed down the ground

A tradie fetches the ball outside the ground and gives it back

19.1
6
Wood to Hardie, SIX, onto the roof of one of the stands! Short of a length, takes advantage of the free hit and swings mightily over the leg side

And it's a free hit...Tom: "What are the boundary dimensions here?" About 65m all around

19.1
7nb
Wood to Hardie, (no ball) SIX, more catching in the crowd as massive full toss is crunched miles back over deep midwicket

Jack: "If this is the damage Junction Oval can deliver, I'm scarred to what North Sydney Oval which is even smaller will deliver..."

Boult to Inglis, no run, drives and misses at a full delivery outside off
18.5

Boult to Inglis, FOUR, not far off the perfect yorker but Inglis is able to reverse sweep it past short third. Magnificent
18.4
0
Boult to Inglis, no run, well bowled by Boult, pushes this full outside off and Inglis can't reach it as he moves to leg
18.3
6
Boult to Inglis, SIX, a slower ball into the pitch, swatted over deep square leg, just enough to clear the fielder...ball flying everywhere
18.2
6
Boult to Inglis, SIX, oh, what a stroke...that's stunning. A full delivery outside off, Inglis switches around and scoops/sweeps over deep third. Hard to explain that stroke
18.1
1
Boult to Hardie, 1 run, over the wicket, a yorker outside off, jabbed square into the off side

Stoinis to Hardie, 2 runs, slower ball into the pitch, swatted straight of long-on
17.4

Stoinis to Hardie, SIX, dropped, and palmed over the rope, but that's a terrific attempt on the deep cover rope by Kellaway
17.3
1
Stoinis to Inglis, 1 run, full toss on the pads, gets a big top edge but somehow it falls short of long leg coming in

Stoinis comes round the wicket

17.2

Stoinis to Inglis, 2 runs, now a bottom handed flick off the pads high into the leg side, between deep midwicket and deep square
17.1
6
Stoinis to Inglis, SIX, superb, again, from Inglis as he drives inside-out over extra cover to bring up a 25-ball fifty. Despite it being a slower ball was able to get the leverage needed
