  • Player of the Match
    Gurinder Sandhu
    4/22(4)
Right then. They say lightning does not strike the same place twice. But Thunder have struck Perth twice this season. Does not really affect the points table as Perth continue to be at the top, while Sydney Thunder stay in third. What to look out for on Friday? A holiday, Yes, a forced break is what we shall see on 7th January, 2022, with the Adelaide Strikers-Melbourne Stars game getting postponed due to mental health issues in the Stars' camp. BBL shall now resume on Saturday, 8th January, 2022, with a double header in Melbourne Renegades and Sydney Thunder, followed by the Brisbane Heat-Hobart Hurricanes clash. The first ball of the day will be bowled at 12:35 pm IST (0705 GMT) but as you are aware, the buildup will begin well in advance. Please do tune in early. Until then, you can catch all the action from the ongoing second South Africa-India Test and of course, the fourth Ashes Test. ADIOS! TAKE CARE!
GURINDER SANDHU HAS BEEN NAMED THE PLAYER OF THE MATCH. Sandhu says that he did not know that he took a hattrick in this game and adds that had he known before, he would have bowled a different ball. But is happy to take multiple hattricks in the same year. Is happier to be able to play consistently now, overcoming his injuries. Lauds the team for winning the game as well. On being the only Thunder player to get a hattrick in the BBL, Gurinder is happy to be in the record books. On beating the Scorchers twice this season, GS praises the whole team as he notes that in every game, someone or the other has put his hand up.
Not knowing to give up till the end, Perth dragged Sydney almost till the end. However, in the 14th over, the highly accurate Mills was targetted by his own countryman and the game swung again. As if there was no shortage of surprises, Peth had a final chance with Davies top-edging a shot off Morris in the 16th over - only to be put down by the keeper, Cameron Bancroft. Had that catch been taken, Thunder would have needed 18 from 13 balls. Who knows, what might have happened. But a great outing for all the Scorchers' bowlers, except in the last couple of overs. Tymal Mills, who will leave the squad to represent England in West Indies, will be missed but this Perth attack actually is terrific.
In reply, the Sydney replied with thunder. It was Matthew Gilkes who stole the show, when the focus was on Alex Hales. He just took the Powerplay by storm and when the score read 51/1 at Gilkes' wicket, 84 needed from 69 balls seemed to be an easy task. But no. It is not for no reason that the Scorchers are at the top of the points table, are they? The table toppers came back post the Powerplay and stifled the scoring. They were unable to pick wickets but Sydney were struggling. Eventually, they managed to pick both, Hales and Sangha in quick succession and the game turned.
Low-scoring thrillers are so exciting. After electing to bat, Perth started in an okay fashion but the rain spoiled their plans. When play resumed after the break, there was some harakiri within their camp and they suddenly found themselves losing wickets. Add to it, Gurinder Sandhu's hattrick pegged them even further before Ashton Agar's cameo gave some respectability to the total.
It is 2-0 for Sydney Thunder! A few days ago, they became the first team to beat Perth Scorchers this season and now, have become the first team to beat the Scorchers TWICE in this season! What a cat-and-mouse game. Till that 14th over, the game was swinging like a pendulum but once Billings got stuck into Mills, the destination of the game was confirmed.

Andrew Tye To Sam Billings OUT!
OUT! RUN OUT! Superb stuff from Tye. Is the game still alive? A yorker, around middle, Billings misses his flick and is hit on the pads. The ball rolls to the off side and the batters go for the quick single. It was on and Tye tried his best to stop it. Got across to the ball and flicked it onto the striker's end. It looked okay at first but at the very end, Davies' bat got stuck outside the crease. The run out appeal was referred upstairs and yes, Davies was found short.
Daniel Sams comes to the crease now.
Daniel Sams walks in for the finishing duties.
Is that a run out? Seems like Davies' bat was stuck outside the crease. Referred upstairs and yes, GONE!

Lance Morris To Sam Billings
DROPPED! Has the game been put down? Difficult catch but should have been taken. Slower ball, around off, Billings looks to swing it to the leg side. Is early into the shot and gets a massive top edge. The ball is beside the pitch and the keeper, Cameron Bancroft calls for it. The bowler is in line too, but he backs out. Bancroft keeps his eyes on the ball but loses it in the end. He swirls with the ball and eventually, has to dive to take it, losing it midway. Drops it. A single taken. In hindsight, perhaps the bowler should have taken it but you always let the man with the gloves take such catches.

OUT! BOWLED! That is an excellent execution of the yorker. Right at the base of off stump, honing in, in the air from outside off, Sangha gets his bat down to defend but is months late. The ball tails in, goes beneath the bat and hits the off stump. The game has turned big time. Sydney Thunder need 40 runs from 26 balls but now have two new batters at the crease.

DRINKS BREAK. This has been a terrific reply from the Thunder so far. They are reminding the Scorchers that they remain the only team to have defeated them in this competition so far. Perth have actually been hit hard by surprise. Stand up and pat yourself on your back if you expected Gilkes to go so hard in the opening overs. The platform has been set and with 9 wickets in hand, needing 73 in 9 overs should not be too difficult.

Andrew Tye To Matthew Gilkes
STUNNING EFFORT FROM COLIN MUNRO! My word - that phrase - cool as a cucumber - has been proved to the 'T' here. Tremendous calmness from the Kiwi. A length ball, around middle, Gilkes swings this high into the night sky over square leg. For a second, it seems like the ball will clear the ropes. But Munro at the ropes, waits and waits and waits for the parabolic trajectory of the ball to end and at the right moment, leaps back, catches the ball and in mid-air, pushes it back into play! The third umpire checks it multiple times and eventually goes with the fielding side. Two runs taken after all that.
