All
14
Tom Curran to Ross, 2 runs, short and wide, pace off and Ross cuts it hard through backward point. Good effort in the deep to cut it off as the fielder dives across after covering some ground
13.5

13.4

Tom Curran to Matthew Short, out Caught by Stoinis!! Well taken at extra cover! Short and wide, slapped hard and flat, above Stoinis's head and he reaches out with both hands to hold on. Had to go full stretch there. Matthew Short c Stoinis b Tom Curran 56(42) [4s-4]

Tom Curran to Matthew Short, no run, nails the cut shot but it's straight to backward point
9.5
Tom Curran to Ross, 1 run, nipping back in, strikes him on the pad as he looks to flick it away and there's an appeal for LBW. Missing leg I think, and so does the umpire. Stars aren't convinced though and go for the review. Oh there's a little murmur on UltraEdge when it's next to the inside edge. Review lost!
9.4
Tom Curran to Matthew Short, 1 run, slower length ball, driven through the off-side
9.3
Tom Curran to Matthew Short, 2 runs, catch goes down! Slower one floated up at the stumps, Short swings across the line, through the shot early and it goes high off the leading edge. Should've been taken at backward point but the fielder makes a mess of it. Tried going with the reverse-cup while plunging low, just a terrible way to go about it. Down it goes, and so does Curran in frustration
9.2
Tom Curran to Matthew Short, 2 runs, fired in the blockhole on off, squeezed away through the off-side and he's back for two

Tom Curran to Matthew Short, FOUR, low full toss at the stumps, Short drives hard down the ground and beats the fielder at long-off

Tom Curran to Liam Scott, FOUR, ball nips away and that results in a thick outside edge that escapes past backward point and they don't have a third man. Fullish delivery outside off stump, Scott looks to drive, gets lucky with the edge
3.5
Tom Curran to Liam Scott, no run, defended
3.4
6
Tom Curran to Liam Scott, SIX, and there's the pick up shot Scott was looking to play earlier. This time the line is slightly outside off stump but he didn't have any problem putting his right foot across the line before whipping it over deep backward square leg
3.3
Tom Curran to Matthew Short, 1 run, short of length delivery on the stumps, Short punches it to mid-on
3.2
Tom Curran to Liam Scott, leg byes, 1 run, optimistic shout for LBW as this length delivery was sliding down leg, Scott looked to play the pick up flick and missed
3.1
Tom Curran to Matthew Short, 1 run, full delivery, Short drives and mistimes with one hand to mid-off
2
Tom Curran to Liam Scott, no run, outstanding outie to take it past the outside edge! Short of a length delivery moving away outside off stump, Scott pokes at it and misses
1.5
4
Tom Curran to Liam Scott, FOUR, oh starts with a cover drive, but of a misfield and he gets four! Full delivery swinging away outside off stump, Scott leans forward and times the ball well. Should have been saved in the infield but it's gone for four
1.4

Tom Curran to Jason Sangha, out Bowled!! Oh now he's got this to leave the right-hander and hit the top of off stump. Tom Curran has silenced the Strikers crowd. Another length delivery pitching around off and nipping away to completely open up Sangha on the defence. Ball escapes past the outside edge and stikres target. Jason Sangha b Tom Curran 0(2)
1.3
Tom Curran to Jason Sangha, no run, short of length delivery on the stumps, Sangha flicks to mid-wicket
1.2
W
Tom Curran to Chris Lynn, out Bowled!! He's bowled a peach. Held the ball for a nip-backer and it caught Lynn off guard. He didn't expect this good length delivery to nip back in that much. Tried to defend, got surprised by the seam movement and tried to adjust and fend. Ball sneaked through the massive bat-pad gap to hit timbaah. Chris Lynn b Tom Curran 4(4)
1.1
Tom Curran to Chris Lynn, 2 runs, this is high, not handsome. Lynn steps out to tonk this full delivery but mishits as the bat turns in his hands, clears mid-on
