Commentator: Alex Malcolm
The Scorchers win by six wickets with 14 balls to spare. That was a clinical chase. Ashton Turner closed that out magnificently after an excellent half-century from Cameron Bancroft. Turner has been exceptional in this season and he keeps his team alive in the tournament. But the game was set up with the ball. Andrew Tye is Player of the Match for his 4 for 18 from four overs. Usman Qadir was excellent with the ball as well. The Scorchers now head home to face the Sydney Sixers on Sunday. The Stars need to regroup ahead of a clash with the Adelaide Strikers on Friday. Thanks for your company tonight from the MCG. Until next time, goodbye.

Plunkett to Bosisto, 1 no ball, 126kph, bouncer, called no-ball for the second bouncer for the over! Game over. But no one knew. The keeper took it, threw the stumps down, Bosisto was in, but then took off to run as it ricocheted away, Gotch ran in picked it up and broke the stumps and he would have been out but the game was over! Crazy finish
