Get Ball by Ball Commentary of Hobart Hurricanes vs Melbourne Renegades, Big Bash League 2024, 34th Match

That concludes our BBL activity for today. Take care. Let's hope to see you all tomorrow. Goodbye!

Player of the Match Jacob Bethell: "(Winning the award) Yeah, a bit bitter. It feels like it probably shouldn't go to someone on the losing team. But I think we did well to drag it that close, having made a few mistakes in the field. I think it was one of them that we never felt we had enough when we were gonna have to make it work. (Big Bash experience) Yeah, I've really enjoyed it obviously, over in Melbourne, love the city. Love the guys and obviously great crowds in the great stadiums. So it's been great. I'll definitely be looking to come back in a different type of cricket but very enjoyable. (Playing The Ashes) It's always been a dream of mine to play Ashes cricket, so if that opportunity presents itself in a year's time, I'll definitely be looking to grasp it."

With 17 runs off the first over, the Hobart Hurricanes got off to the start they desired. However, they eventually became disoriented in the centre. Jewell got off to a rough start and left the pitch in the third over. Mitch Owen was hitting the ball brilliantly but was caught in an unlucky run-out due to a mix-up with Wakim. The Hobart Hurricanes lost four wickets within the first ten overs. Nikhil had a tidy score of 36 runs off 28 balls. However, the game was shifted by Matthew Wade, who batted late in the middle order. The match's momentum shifted after scoring 28 runs in the Power Surge. Bethell produced a superb comeback with the ball by removing the danger man Wade, who hit 36 runs off 23 balls. Ultimately, it came down to Tim David, and he excelled once more! It was coming down to the wire, but Tim David held his cool and lobbed the full-toss off Rogers into the on-side stadium seats. With their sixth straight victory, the Hobart Hurricanes take the lead in the standings. With today's setback, the Melbourne Renegades' chances of progressing to the next round of the BBL are over.
