    Dawson to McAndrew
    McAndrew pumps Dawson over long-on for a mighty long six and finishes the game in an emphatic style! Sydney Thunder get over the line with 10 balls to spare and bag their first two points this season. They stayed one step ahead in this entire game and coasted home with five wickets in hand, convincing win, well-done!
    18.1
    4
    Dawson to McAndrew
    round the wicket, length ball on off, he dances down the track and butchers it through extra cover who is a bit scruffy and leaks a boundary
    17.6
    4
    Usama Mir to Sams
    filthy half-tracker on middle, he loads up and then clouts it over midwicket for a blistering boundary; loose delivery and duly dispatched
    17.5
    0
    Usama Mir to Sams
    tossed up a quick and short legbreak and follows him as he moves to the leg side, tapped back to the bowler
    17.4
    2
    Usama Mir to Sams
    tossed up, on middle and leg, whangs it away to midwicket, dealing in singles at the moment
    17.3
    1
    Usama Mir to McAndrew
    tossed up fuller, sliding across off, smothers the spin by pushing it down to long-off
    17.2
    1
    Usama Mir to Sams
    bit slower in pace and didn't get much turn, shortish on middle, rocks back and pulls it away to deep midwicket, didn't get the desired result
    17.1
    2
    Usama Mir to Sams
    tossed up a legbreak on a length drifting down middle and leg, uppishly played to long on
    16.6
    1
    Webster to Sams
    good length, nips back sharply and he gets a thick inside edge to midwicket region, bowls another terrific over, he has been the captain's delight today
    16.5
    1
    Webster to McAndrew
    cunning slow short ball on off, clothes it away to midwicket's right
    16.4
    1
    Webster to Sams
    slung full at his body, belted down the ground with not much timing, mid-on swooped to his left and made an acrobatic diving stop
    16.3
    2
    Webster to Sams
    picks up the ball from a shortish length on middle and smashed a pull to square of midwicket, it hit him high on the blade
    16.2
    1
    Webster to McAndrew
    oh, that was tantalisingly in the air, fuller ball slanting into the toes, chipped in the air and it just evades man at short midwicket
    16.1
    W
    Webster to JJS Sangha
    oh my word! that is an unbelievable catch at point! wow wow wow! back of a length outside off, he throws his hands at it and Dawson goes airborne and plucks it out of thin air, sensational stuff! Webster is on a hat-trick! Certainly, a strong contender for player of the match
    15.6
    6
    Haris Rauf to Sams
    Kaboom! flogs him for a six! that is some shot, great power behind it. Ruins Haris over with a cracking flat six over cover-point.
    15.5
    1
    Haris Rauf to JJS Sangha
    goes full and angles it on middle, gets right behind the line and drills it downtown, long-on mops it up
    15.4
    1
    Haris Rauf to Sams
    fires in another thunderbolt on a short length in the corridor, hits him on the up and mid-off collects it on one bounce, hard to get underneath when he's nearing 150 clicks, he's skiddy too
    15.4
    1
    Haris Rauf to Sams
    just routinely hits an uncomfortable area but just gets a bit leg-sidish and he goes for an almighty heave but cannot connect, given a wide
    15.3
    1
    Haris Rauf to JJS Sangha
    charging in, gathering pace, flings it on a shorter length, scudding through the deck, again ruffled by the pace, clipped away to square leg
    15.2
    1
    Haris Rauf to Sams
    short of a length, delivery zoomed in at middle and leg, hurried by the pace and bonks it away behind square leg
