8.10pm Given Strikers were 130 for 1 after only 11 overs, you'd think Stars have done a wonderful job of pulling things back when 225 looked likely. That assault from Strikers was led by Lynn and Short, who cracked an unbeaten 83 off 42 balls and 56 from 32, respectively. Their second-wicket stand of 93 took just 41 deliveries, as Maxwell led the effort with the ball for Stars. Join us for the chase in ten.
