Rashid Khan’s one-man show leads Adelaide strikers to Victory.

First innings :

Adelaide Strikers got a very good start of 47 runs from the opening batsman. Opener Philip Salt had hit a brilliant half-century (54) in 26 balls which includes 7 four’s and 1 six. Captain & Wicket-keeper Alex Carey played a responsible knock of 41 in 37 balls and built a good partnership with Wells. After these both players got out, Rashid Khan showed some power hitting with the bat. He had made 25 runs at the end, which includes 2 six’s and 2 four’s.

Melbourne Renegades bowler Kane Richardson picked 4 wickets in his four overs spell. Another bowler Boyce bowled a brilliant spell with a low economy rate and picked 2 wickets. Remaining all bowlers didn’t bowl up to team expectations.

Second innings :

With a target of 156, Melbourne openers Sam Harper and captain Finch started their innings. Finch played brilliantly in a pressure match and hit a half-century. Webster showed some power hitting in death overs with 2 six’s and 2 four’s he hit unbeaten 37 runs and almost he tried to chase the target.

Brilliant fielding from Strikers
