Adelaide Strikers vs Sydney Sixers, 27th Match - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

Tom Curran to Conway, out Bowled!! Curran slips in a in-curling yorker, too good for Conway who is late to bring his bat down. Crashes into the middle-stump and makes a mess of the sticks. Conway b Tom Curran 6(8)

Tom Curran to Conway, no run, yorker outside off, jammed to backward point and there's a big mix-up between the two tall batters. Conway is halfway down, while Stanlake is not at all interested. Conway stays mid-pitch and has given up. The fielder misses the target and Conway stares at the non-striker before walking all the way to make his ground. Now, the batsmen have a chat!

Tom Curran to Valente, out Caught by Jack Edwards!! Back-of-the-hand slower ball at 109.7kph, full and wide of off, Valente moves across and tries to tonk it downtown. Doesn't get it anywhere close to the middle of the bat and the ball goes up a long way in the air. Edwards runs in from long-on to gobble that up. Valente c Jack Edwards b Tom Curran 12(13) [4s-1]

Dwarshuis to Valente, FOUR, 128.3kph, short and wide outside off, cut over backward point. Pope runs to his right and gets a hand on it, but fails to stop it. Ends up parruing it onto the ropes

Hazlewood to Siddle, out Caught by Josh Philippe!! Shortish ball at 139.3kph, Siddle is cramped for room and he tries to fend it away behind square on the on-side. He didn't account for the extra bounce and the ball popped up off the glove. A simple catch for Josh Philippe. Siddle c Josh Philippe b Hazlewood 1(2)

Dwarshuis to Carey, out Caught by Tom Curran!! The Sixers continue to take wickets. A superb catch from Curran. Seam-up ball, full and wide of off at 136.1kph, Carey shimmies down the track and crunch it through extra cover. Makes decent contact, but plays it aerially. Curran flies to his right at mid-off and snaffles it with both hands. Carey c Tom Curran b Dwarshuis 32(30) [4s-3]

Tom Curran to Rashid Khan, out Caught by Josh Philippe!! Rashid Khan bags a duck! A full ball outside off at 132.3kph, Rashid tries to play an audacious stroke - looks to loft and ends up slicing it off the cue end. Went a long way in the air. Josh Philippe called for it, ran towards the point region and pouched it superbly. Rashid Khan c Josh Philippe b Tom Curran 0(2)

Lloyd Pope to Neser, out Lbw!! Second wicket for Lloyd Pope. 86kph, skiddy ball and Neser misses the sweep after getting down on a leg. Impact - in line, wickets - hitting middle. The umpire was quick to raise the finger. Neser lbw b Lloyd Pope 2(2)

Lloyd Pope to Carey, no run, 89.1kph, Carey misses the googly against this skiddy ball and is rapped on the back leg. Pope appeal for lbw and that's been struck down. Meanwhile, there's a confusion between the batters with Neser almost halfway down the track. Gets sent back by the skipper, but Josh Philippe fires a wild throw and misses the target by a long way

Lloyd Pope to Wells, out Caught by James Vince!! Holed out! Flighted delivery well outside off at 87.4kph, was full in length as well. Wells moves across and gets low to slog-sweep, doesn't get the required elevation and hits it straight down Vince's throat at deep mid-wicket. Wells c James Vince b Lloyd Pope 7(13)

Hazlewood to Carey, FOUR, nicely done! 138.3kph, full and on the stumps, Carey moves across and laps it over short fine leg

Lloyd Pope to Carey, FOUR, 90.9kph, quicker googly, Carey rocks back to cut and gets a thick outside edge that runs away to the third man fence. Back-to-back boundaries

Lloyd Pope to Carey, FOUR, 86.9kph, fullish ball with loads of width. Allows Carey to free his arms and Carey bends his back leg to lift it over extra cover for a one-bounce four

Tom Curran to Weatherald, out Bowled!! Curran bowls a perfect yorker at 135.1kph. Weatherald was probably expecting another off-pace ball and was late to bring to his bat down. Got beaten for pace and the ball smashed into the sticks. Weatherald b Tom Curran 47(31) [4s-7 6s-1]

Lloyd Pope to Weatherald, FOUR, 90.6kph, a drag down from Pope, Weatherald rocks back and pummels the pull through square leg

Bird to Weatherald, FOUR, 124.8kph, width served outside off. Weatherald slaps the cut through point. Raced away to the fence

Tom Curran to Weatherald, FOUR, 110.6kph, overpitched outside off, Weatherald spots the change of pace and batters the drive straight of mid-off. It was the back-of-the-hand slower ball from Curran

Tom Curran to Weatherald, FOUR, 132.1kph, skiddy length ball and Weatherald is a touch late as he tries to heave across the line. Gets an inside edge, that brushes his pad and eludes the leg-stump before running away to fine leg

Dwarshuis to Short, out Lbw!! That's plumb! 136.1kph, yorker length on middle, Short shuffles across a long way to flick and misses it altogether. Struck him on pads adjacent to the middle-stump. That's hitting middle of middle. Excellent over from Dwarshuis. Short lbw b Dwarshuis 7(7) [4s-1]

Bird to Weatherald, FOUR, 130.8kph, overpitched by Bird, Weatherald takes his front leg out of the way and lifts it over-and-straight of mid-on. 15 off the over

Bird to Weatherald, SIX, 131.9kph, full again and it's in the arc again. Weatherald clears his front leg and swings his bat hard to tonk it over long-on

Bird to Weatherald, FOUR, 121.9kph, slower ball right in the slot, Weatherald gets under it and hoicks it through the gap between mid-wicket and mid-on

Hazlewood to Short, FOUR, 136.3kph, too straight from Hazlewood - ends up straying on the pads, Short walks across and flicks it very fine - via an inside edge. Might have clipped the thigh pad too before the ball sped away to the fine leg fence

Bird to Philip Salt, out Caught by Josh Philippe!! Edged and gone! 135.9kph, skiddy length ball around off, might have nibbled away a bit off the deck in addition to the extra bounce. The line forces Salt to play at it and he dangles his bat out for a push. A thick outside edge and it's an easy grab for the keeper. The umpires want to check if it's a fair delivery, Bird is fine on that count. Philip Salt c Josh Philippe b Bird 9(10) [4s-1]

Bird to Philip Salt, FOUR, 133.2kph, short of length delivery, Salt stands tall and slaps it past the bowler. Bird stuck his left hand out, but the ball had passed him. Spanked!

Dwarshuis to Weatherald, FOUR, 140.9kph, shorter from Dwarshuis, Weatherald picks the length early and with a small swivel, he pulls it over and wide of backward square leg. First boundary!
