Scorchers vs Renegades, 4th Match at Hobart, BBL, Dec 12 2020 - Ball by Ball Commentary

they've won it with a wide! A zippy bouncer, but it flies down the leg side, eluding a flailing pull. What a soggy end to a contest that never really got going...

length ball, no need to take any liberties young'un

bowled him! Marsh had the glory in his sights, and he's missed a straight one! Just played around the length ball as he looked for the winning angle. A personal anticlimax after a superb anchoring innings, but I suspect it's not going to change much ...

full length, dipping into the pads, flicked to midwicket, and the scores are level...

flogged out to deep point, another single. The last rites are nigh ...

cuts back into the left-hander with late lift and movement, chopped to gully for another single

a big wind-up with victory in sight, but that's too tight to the body and skitters through to the keeper

clattered back past the bowler! That's dismissive! Pounded back at the bowler's ankles, and clean through long-off

rolls the fingers on a length ball, fourth-stump line, punched to long-off

slower ball on a wide line, back of a length, thumped to cover. Into single figures now

slower ball outside off, almost a half-tracker, but with protection in the deep that's a percentage ball. Settles for the single with another swingeing pull

another resounding echo of willow as Rossouw hits down on his pull, and deep midwicket sweeps up again

slow again, on the hips, tapped square. Renegades are two blows away...

back of a length, Rossouw rides the bounce with a sweet-sounding pull, but Scorcher's men in the deep are guarding the leg side

fuller and straighter, nudged back to the bowler

slower ball, outside off, and somehow that has been panned with disdain over the covers! Rossouw gave himself too much room initially, but the speed of the ball gave him plenty time to measure his connection superbly!

thumps the pad but that's a very ambitious appeal, sweeping from outside the line of off

another single to keep the score ticking

huge wipe to deep midwicket, and dropped! Rossouw got right underneath his slog-sweep, and that should have been taken ... perhaps some indecision as two fielders converged

hanging on the back foot, pressed firmly into space in the covers
