Commentary

That's it from us here for now. There's heaps of action on this platform. Please do check all that out. And come back for more. Till next time, it's adios from us.

Tahlia McGrath | Player of the Match: The Make My Wish foundation got in touch with me a couple of months back. He got a hundred yesterday against the girls in the nets, so some extra motivation today with him around [referring to the young boy who was the mascot of the game today]. Solid innings. I have been well below-par all season and happy to come out with a win. Cricket is a cruel cruel game, when it's low it's really low. Hopefully it's the start of something good for me. We have been good with the ball all season. Someone in our team always stands up and it's so nice to be around these bunch of girls. Mushangwe looks like she was involved in Big Bash the whole year. She stepped up today and it's always a big loss not to have Megan Schutt. We play on Sunday, hopefully we win and then we play the semi-finals.

What a chase this has been. McGrath who has been struggling till today has turned it all around and in some fashion. The target of 155 has been chased down with 31 balls to spare. The Strikers level now with the Hurricanes on 15 points with both teams having a game left. The race for the top four is getting spicier. So Strikers have won one of their two must-win games. The next one is on Sunday for them. Coming back to this game, it was all one-way traffic once McGrath hit her straps. She got a free-hit early on and put it away to the boundary, that kickstarted her innings and she never looked back.

The Strikers have made the chase look so easy and at the end, McGrath finished it off in a canter. If not for the 5 wides by Graham, she might even have got to a richly-deserved ton. Hang on for the post-match presentation...

Match summary: Adelaide Strikers won by 8 wickets.

Tahlia McGrath 93* | Deandra Dottin 20*

15.0

14.5 Heather Graham to Tahlia McGrath, FOUR! 25 off the over and McGrath does not get a hundred but she has finished this off. Dug in short on the stumps, she comes down and pulls, the top-edge flies away over the keeper. The Strikers win with 5.1 overs left

14.4 Heather Graham to Tahlia McGrath, FOUR! McGrath is attacking the leg-side fence. It's a low full-toss outside off, she gets across and whips it wide of backward square

14.4 Heather Graham to Tahlia McGrath, WIDES! Way outside off, left alone and Lee had no chance behind the stumps

14.3 Heather Graham to Tahlia McGrath, SIX! And another one. Slower and outside off, McGrath swings it into the crowd at deep square where a chap takes a clean catch

14.2 Heather Graham to Tahlia McGrath, SIX! McGrath now wants to end this quickly. Full outside off, she gets across and heaves it over mid-wicket to the short boundary

14.1 Heather Graham to Deandra Dottin, full on the stumps, lofted straight for one

Heather Graham, (2.0-0-14-0) is back into the attack.

McGrath cuts it and she cuts it in the gap for another boundary on the last delivery. Dottin with a clever boundary as she ramped it back and hit it in the empty fine-leg region. They need just 26 runs from 36 balls.
