Well, what a collapse that was by Sydney Thunder. They have folded for 140 having been 125 for 5 (and 69 for 1). Adelaide Strikers excellent through. Once again led by Jamie Overton and Cameron Boyce, but tonight had great support from Lloyd Pope. If Strikers chase these they are in the finals. I'll be back in a few minutes.
