Strikers need to win on Sunday against Thunder and hope the Stars or Sixers lose their last two. But they are a chance. And they if they play like that they will be hard to beat. Here is the table as it stands. Thanks for your company tonight. Hope to see you tomorrow for the Sydney Smash. Look out for low flying helicopters carrying David Warner at the SCG. Goodnight.

Jake Weatherald: "It's probably been a couple of years brewing. I've been working so hard on my T20 cricket. Whilst I hadn't taken an opportunity I felt there was something brewing. It was nice to get on a nice wicket, have time to get in and then I was able to play freely. In retrospect, it was probably the best I've batted ever in T20 cricket."

10.10pm Strikers win to keep their finals hopes alive. Chris Lynn out with a hamstring. No Alex Carey. Weatherald comes in having scored 11 runs in three games for the season and smashes 80 not out from 32 to win the game with 25 balls to spare. Stunning batting. As good an innings as you will see in the BBL. He is such a special player when he fires. Hurricanes season is over. Cameron Boyce on Fox: "We have seen hitting like that before. In the nets he's been absolutely flogging them. The boys will be so pleased for Weathers. He's been working really hard and going through a bit of stuff."

Josh: "What has Dooley ever done to Weatherald

 that felt personal !!"

wes r: "ive always felt when jake weatherald is in full flight like this he could easily be a suitable replacement for finch and warner when they retired. only problem he has had is rhythm, plays one good innings and then so many lean ones. i hope this is a turning point for him as he is an amazing person when i met him earlier this year"

Sunitha: "No slogging. All his hits were clean cricketing shots. Looked neat and definitely brutal. Not for a moment he looked in any discomfort at the crease."

Dooley to Weatherald, SIX, launched over deep midwicket! Tossed up on off, he clears the front leg and smashes it miles with the spin. He's just lining Dooley up
