#3 Captain Hodge plays perfect cameo
Captain Brad Hodge came to the crease when Travis Head mistimed a slower ball from Kingston straight into the hands of Webster at point. The Strikers had lost two early wickets but Dunk was going great guns at the other end. Hodge started tentatively, surviving a few close lbw calls.
However, he turned things around with a 19-run over from medium pacer Kingston, striking two sixes and a four in the over. The first ball - a slower delivery – was picked and hit hard over midwicket. In the very next ball, he went one better, going over the same region for a massive six.
The captain brought up the team’s 100, depositing another six in the same over, over cover. He was eventually dismissed softly, guiding a length ball into the wicket-keeper’s hands.
