END OF OVER:
20 | 15 Runs 1 Wkt | MS: 163/8 (12 runs required, RR: 8.15)

  • Nathan Rimmington4-0-45-1
  • Ben Edmondson4-1-32-2

Till Faulkner was around, Melbourne Stars seemed to be in with a fair chance. The wickets of Luke Wright and David Hussey off successive balls by Edmondson tightened the grip of Perth Scorchers on the match. Perth Scorchers have booked themselves a spot in the Champions League with the win. If Wade was sent in at a position higher than his eventual eighth, things might have been different for the Stars

Thanks for joining us and make sure that you join us for the second semi-final between Sydney Sixers and Hobart Hurricanes tomorrow
