Rose took the Hurricanes to a respectable total

At 98/6 after 17 overs, the Hurricanes innings was in complete disarray. Nonetheless, some lusty blows by Jonathan Wells and Clive Rose helped the home side to a respectable total of 134.

The 18th over injected some sort of momentum with the Hurricanes piling on 16 runs off the bowling of Andrew Tye. Rose muscled the third six of the innings when he went downtown to tantalisingly clear long-on and then found the boundary again to give the Hurricanes fans something to cheer about.

The penultimate and the final over added 20 more runs as the duo smoked three 4s to craft out a partnership of 46 in 33 balls, much to the relief of the Hurricanes dugout.
