8.25pm Right, here they come. We're ready for the chase. Looks like it'll be spin to start. Phillipe is taking strike against Tim David.

8.10pm That's a massive 213 put up by Hurricanes, the same score Sixers had posted in the season opener on the same ground six days ago. They looked set for 200-plus right from the beginning, but what a way to get there! Wade raced away to a 19-ball fifty with the help of five fours in an over off Tom Curran, but Short was really scratchy at the end other, on 16 off 22 at one point. He didn't have answers for Christian's slower balls or O'Keefe's change of pace from around the wicket, before finally finding his groove to hammer six fours and three sixes from there to carry the innings, with Jewell's help, past 200. Sixers have the personnel to chase this down, the pitch is flat, but will they? Join us for the chase soon...

Jordan to Short, 2 runs, 140.4kmh, nearly in the block hole which Short drills back and they want two after the ball deflects off Jordan's right hand, and they do make it back just in time as there's no direct hit at the bowler's end

Last ball

19.5
0
Jordan to Short, no run, 141.4kmh, pace again, and hello! Short gets in position for a scoop, then switches for a reverse scoop and misses it completely
19.4
6
Jordan to Short, SIX, 111.1kmh, slower one, on the stumps, in the slot, and guess what? Short has dispatched that over the midwicket boundary, right over the fielder's head for six!
19.3

Jordan to Short, no run, slips in a quick delivery at 143kmh just outside off, beaten by pace and misses the ball completely
19.2
2
Jordan to Short, 2 runs, 105.4kmh, excellent work from Silk in the deep as Short swings on the leg side, it's going for a four between deep midwicket and deep square leg, and Silk sprints across to his left and dives just in time to slap the ball inside with his left hand

Did they cross each other? Looks like they did, so Short on strike

19.1
W
Jordan to Jewell, OUT, slower ball, he swings for the stands, doesn't middle as one hand comes off the bat and he holes out to deep midwicket. Another easy catch for Silk, and a handy innings of 42 come to an end

CP Jewell c Silk b Jordan 42 (37m 23b 6x4 1x6) SR: 182.60

Jordan for the last over. The partnership 92, and Jewell could also get to 50 here

Abbott to Short, SIX, goes across and gets this one in the slot around off to swing that like a golf club, way back into the stands behind the midwicket boundary. Massive six, maybe the biggest tonight. They go past 200!

Abbott to Short, no run, 112.2kmh, a dot, four, dot, four and now another dot as he swings outside off and misses the length ball angling across

Abbott to Short, FOUR, makes room and then suddenly goes across the stumps to make Abbott bowl full, and scoops it fine cheekily for four more!
18.3
0
Abbott to Short, no run, slams it back to the bowler, and Abbott dives to his right to stop it. Saved one or two there
18.2

Jordan to Jewell, FOUR, goes for the block hole again, and he probably expected that, makes a hint of room and drills it through the covers for a boundary!
17.5
2
Jordan to Jewell, 2 runs, slower delivery on leg, he waits and waits before pulling to deep midwicket and they scamper across back for the second. The third umpire is checking for a run out at the keeper's end, the batter put in a dive, slid his bat in, so all good for him
17.4

Jordan to Jewell, no run, misses this time as he goes across for a big swing on the leg side but Jordan takes the pace off and bowls it full just outside off
17.3

Jordan to Jewell, FOUR, steers it in the gap on off for four! Jewell makes room and nice steers the low and wide yorker wide of deep point
17.2

Jordan to Jewell, no run, goes across this time for a swipe to leg, but it's a length ball just outside off, and he takes it on the pad outside off
17.1

Jordan to Jewell, FOUR, cheeky stuff from Jewell, Jordan pitches it quick and low towards his feet, and Jewell tickles it fine on the leg side for four
