Innings break That looks a very under par score. Average first innings score here is 156 and the average winning score is 172. The pitch is good. The Stars were outstanding. Maxwell marshalled his troops superbly. They had some luck with a couple of 50-50 calls go their way but they executed very well. Gotch was brilliant behind the stumps. Can they back it up with the bat? Gnasher will be back to start the chase.

Adam Zampa on Fox about that catch to get Henriques: "Anticipation. It's hard to say honestly. I saw him go back to ramp so I started sprinting. I actually wasn't even watching the ball I just watched the batsman and went back so I don't know. It would be hard to tell to be honest." There is a provision in the law where you are allowed to move if the batsman changes his stance. Brilliant thinking.

ossama: "there hasn't been a boundary since 11.3, almost 8 overs. is this some record in T20s?" No record but it's a long drought

Darren: "have a feeling this could be a repeat of last years final. Stars start well in batting and then collapse! Hope not."

O'Keefe will be on strike for Rauf

Coulter-Nile

Richard: "Would it be fair to say that the batsmen in the BBL are having similar problems we've seen in English domestic competitions in that very few of them can deal with a decent spinner?" That would be fair Richard

Kirk: "If Stars win it's because of Gotch stunning behind the stumps"

Umair A.: "This is not fair. Please leave some wickets for Haris Rauf too." Here is Haris to bowl 18 and 20

Ritesh: "Big Bash: Australia: Bouncy pitches n fast bowlers .. But its been the spinners who have made huge impact all the way through the tournament, Zampa, Maxi, Rashid, Hinchlife, Boyce, Cook... Great for the game indeed."

Zampa again

Shah: "almost every one has bowled from the stars. Is Mawell trying something new?" It's all about match ups. Pace to Smith and Henriques was the right play, hence Stoinis bowled. Spin to Silk is a better option, hence Maddinson has bowled
