Peter Della Penna will be back for the start of the chase.
9.15pm Innings break That's a big score in a final. Vince was superb. He wanted to make up for the run out of Philippe which he claimed responsibility for on interview. He did so in a big way. His second score of 90 plus in this finals series against the Scorchers. He has had their measure. It's also the second highest score in a BBL final behind Jake Weatherald's century in the BBL 07 decider. The Scorchers skipper Ashton Turner might rue a few decisions but bowling Liam Livingstone an extra over and only bowling Fawad Ahmed for three overs was a bad miscalculation.
Danish: "Have any of Livingstone's big scores this season come in a chase? Don't think so." He made 54 against the Hurricanes.
John: "What a joke. That has to be at least benefit of the doubt to the batsmen if not above waist. They need to do more to eliminate these waist high full tosses from the game coz they couldn't be rewarded with wickets. I also the TV umpire never once checked whether the fielders foot touched the rope" You're correct on not checking the rope John. Not sure I can agree on the waist high decision. He was 2 metres down the track. It has to be waist high in his stance at the popping crease and it would have dipped a lot further. Tough call for the TV umpire.

Vihanga Perera: "Criminal that Fawad didn't finish his quota"
Fine leg and third man up, mid on and mid off back

Power Surge yields 25
Steven Broadben: "Totally agree Martin S....bowling Hardie means either Ahmed, Richardson or Tye wont get 4 overs in....seems like a poor decision"
Richardson on. Christian on the mic: "He might go into the wicket or wide yorkers"

Good over from Tye. His economy rate in the Surge is 9.58. He beat that there and the league average of 10.23
