At 147/4 by the start of the 16th over, the Melbourne Stars looked well set for a score above 180 and more but they slipped in remarkable fashion. The last 5 overs of their innings saw the Stars score only 20 runs and lose as many as five wickets.

Chris Green pegged back the stumps of Faulkner and Sam Harper in his final over and finished with figures of 2/26. Zampa became Watson’s third victim in the next over, slicing a fullish delivery straight to Rohrer at point. Hilfenhaus’ also ended up spooning a catch to Rohrer.
