That ends the coverage for this game. The Stars move to 20 points and have more or less certified their top 2 position. But do not go anywhere, because the Sydney derby is underway at the Showground Stadium!
GLENN MAXWELL HAS BEEN NAMED THE MAN OF THE MATCH for his all-round show.
Earlier in the day, the Stars huffed and puffed to 141, thanks to Glenn Maxwell and Nick Larkin. Hilton Cartwright was struggling throughout but the one good thing he did was, batted till the end.
What to tell about the Stars? Excellent bowling. They keep believing in themselves, don't they? First, they managed to reach a defendable total from a seemingly hopeless situation. Then, they managed to defend 46 runs in the last 5 overs, needing 7 wickets. Great positive blokes. Everyone was excellent, being tight and not giving anything away and Nic Maddinson enjoyed the most, taking 3 wickets.
It was going to be a low-scoring affair, but did anyone predict it? When the Stars were 49/3 in the 10th over, one felt that the game was gone. Then, whey they posted 141, didn't quite look enough. The Scorchers started steadily, not worrying about the run rate but then Cameron Bancroft's wicket changed the game as Perth collapsed from 94/3 to 129/9.
Right. 20 points for Glenn Maxwell's side. How did they manage to win it? Only they know. Or Scorchers. From a point where they should have won, they just lost it. They were looking in good shape at 94/3, needing 47 from 32 balls.

OUT! CAUGHT! Patterson goes and Perth Scorchers crumble further. Patterson comes down the track and converts the attempted leg spinner to a full toss. He looks to hammer it over the long on region but does not get the required distance on it nor the elevation.

OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! What a catch from Nic Maddinson. Deserves every bit of applause he gets. Maddinson bowls a full toss on middle, Bancroft comes down the track and looks to hammer it over the bowler's head but Maddinson gets his both hands to it as a piece of reflex action. Somehow, he manages to stop the ball and voila, the catch is taken! This could be a big blow. A set batsman is gone. 48 more needed from 31 balls.

TACTICAL TIME-OUT TAKEN. 7 overs left, 59 needed, 7 wickets in hand. Normally, you would go with the batting side. But in this case, one cannot be 100 percent sure. The Scorchers definitely do not possess a line-up which any other team would be jealous of. They would want at least one of Patterson and Bancroft to stay till the end.

Daniel Worrall To Josh Inglis OUT!
OUT! PLAYED ON! There comes the first wicket. A length ball outside off, nothing special about it, to be honest. Inglis just looks to defend as it comes in with the angle. The ball takes the bottom edge, drops down and hits the stumps. 126 more needed from 106 balls.
