00:07Top.
00:11Beautifully played, good use of the feet and away for four.
00:16Helped on its way, it'll go for four.
00:19MUSIC
00:30Thumped and away it goes for six.
00:33Beautiful shot.
00:35One thing you can say about Travis Head is he never dies wondering.
00:38You put it out there and he'll put you out of the park.
00:42Crunched away through the offside.
00:45Catch it.
00:53That's big.
00:55Made a crack off the bat.
00:58Steve Smith with a bludgeon of his own for six.
01:05Nearly, nearly got a wicket.
01:08Too wide of the keeper and away for four.
01:15And this is what can happen.
01:18He just gets away.
01:22Crunched through that mid-wicket region.
01:25And the 50 partnership comes up.
01:31What a shot.
01:34Slow ball with length.
01:36Again evidence that this surface is a very good one for batting.
01:40Steve Smith well set.
01:45MUSIC
01:49In the gap.
01:51That was clobbered by Steve Smith.
01:56Searching for the Yorker again.
01:59They're in down the leg side.
02:03Set himself.
02:05Innovation from Steven Smith.
02:08And he gets a maximum.
02:11Gets him to his 26-15 T20s.
02:15To go with the three centuries he's scored in this format of the game.
02:18Wow.
02:22Just over.
02:24And here comes Travis Head now to open up the scoring.
02:27Travis Head, the form that he's in at the moment.
02:29Just rocking back.
02:31Slicing that one past point.
02:37100 partnership comes up.
02:3961 deliveries.
02:43This is a chance.
02:45Could be the first.
02:46Is the first.
02:49This time pace on from Corey Anderson.
02:52Finn Allen completes the catch.
03:00Hit straight enough.
03:02Maybe just a bit of pressure was building.
03:04Release shot from Head gets a boundary.
03:0694 for none.
03:10Well executed.
03:13Another maximum for Travis Head who now will take on this attack.
03:16Absolutely no fear.
03:18It's just the line on this occasion.
03:20Maybe a little bit too straight.
03:21But a beautiful swing of the bat again from Travis Head.
03:27Just over.
03:29Long on and it will bring up a fourth consecutive MLC 50 for Travis Head.
03:34He has dominated this competition.
03:40Will be four more.
03:43Just toying with the field.
03:48Juggle but taken.
03:53Bailed us there.
03:55But all he can do is watch as it sails over his head.
04:01Oh, hello.
04:04Andres House says I too want to join the party.
04:09It wasn't such a bad delivery.
04:11But it's great footwork.
04:15That's gone.
04:16That's gone.
04:17That's gone.
04:19It's also a no ball because it's above the waist.
04:22It's huge this.
04:25He's a tall man.
04:27And yet it was above his waist.
04:34That's just one.
04:35I wonder if it's a no ball as well.
04:38There you go.
04:40That's a free hit as well.
04:43Accepted gleefully.
04:45And disappeared for six.
04:4880 miles per hour bracket.
04:50This one is about 67.
04:52But it was in the slot.
04:57Oh, hurry back.
04:59It's gone if it hits.
05:00Yeah, gone for all money.
05:04Tarjinder Singh.
05:06Does the job.
05:09And gone.
05:10Not too sure there was a run there.
05:12Because look.
05:13He sent it back straight away.
05:17Just having their presence at the game.
05:19And you as well, Pat.
05:20What is it like?
05:24No fielder back there.
05:25And even if he were back there.
05:28The pace of Matt Henry.
05:30All the way for six.
05:33177 is indeed the target in those 14 overs.
05:38Four overs for the Lexus power play.
05:44Ball there.
05:46What a start.
05:47For Akhil Hussain.
05:49And the freedom.
05:54Jassim.
05:55What a start.
05:56For Akhil Hussain.
05:58And the freedom.
06:01Just getting on off the wicket.
06:03Van Halen rocking back.
06:05Looking to hit probably straight past the bowler.
06:11Bang.
06:12Out of there.
06:13This one absolutely smoked over deep and wicket.
06:22Beautiful shot.
06:27Dump that.
06:30It will roll along the ground as well.
06:37Over.
06:39That ball did shape in just ever so slightly.
06:41But the length for me.
06:42He's picked it up so quickly.
06:47It will take some catching.
06:48Gone straight up in the air.
06:51Whoopsie.
06:57Smoky.
07:00Six runs.
07:01This is what he does.
07:02Jake Fraser-McGurk.
07:07That's well played.
07:10Hits him.
07:14Oh, whoopsie.
07:17Misfield allows it through for four.
07:24Outside edge.
07:25And the catch is taken.
07:28Khaas making no mistake.
07:30A little bit short of length.
07:33And Fraser-McGurk looking to hit everything to the onside.
07:40Walloped.
07:43Behind point and a slide.
07:47This is a slower delivery.
07:4869 miles per hour.
07:52He's a very good fielder.
07:53But you can see that.
07:55Look at that shot.
07:56Look at that shot.
07:58Love the reverse reap when it comes off.
08:01And this is very nicely done.
08:06Top edge.
08:08Goes for four.
08:13Superbly done.
08:15A mere lift from getting inside the line.
08:19And the maximum result.
08:25Clevered.
08:27Wide of long on.
08:29And long.
08:30Very good hit.
08:32Very, very good hit.
08:39Running hard.
08:40And he'll get there.
08:42Well played, young man.
08:44Top class half century, this.
08:50Look at that shot.
08:51Real authority in that stroke.
08:53Rating the length particularly well.
09:01Look at the innovation.
09:03That is a Josh Inglis signature.
09:10My, oh my.
09:12This is top class batting from the San Francisco Unicorns.
09:19Crunch.
09:20It was all about the placement.
09:21Four fielders deep on that leg side.
09:23And still good enough to find the gap.
09:27He is just so good, Inglis.
09:30Saw just how he could power the ball down the ground as well.
09:36Deep third.
09:37Goes big again.
09:38He's starting to really damage it here.
09:44Chance.
09:45Takes it.
09:46Mokhtar Ahmedi dropped one earlier.
09:48But this time.
09:49Judges it to perfection.
09:52This has gone straight up.
09:55It's Ty under it.
09:56And Ty takes it.
09:57Two wickets in the over.
09:58What a comeback.
10:05Oh, put down.
10:06Steve Smith it was.
10:08I think he may have lost it in the light.
10:15Smith under it.
10:16But he can only watch.
10:22Banged away.
10:23And that's gone for six.
10:28Nice shot.
10:29Nice shot.
10:31Away for four more.
10:35Oh, yes.
10:36Oh, yes.
10:38Sanjay Krishnamurthy.
10:43Thumped again.
10:45Six again.
10:47Doing it easy.
10:49Twenty-one so far of the over.
10:55Failed that.
10:56Failed that.
10:57Failed that.
10:58No way.
10:59No way.
11:00How has that gone for six?
11:02I thought he was gone for all money.
11:05Straight off the middle of the blade.
11:11Beautiful shot.
11:13Really well played.
11:15Oh, educated.
11:17An educated edge.
11:19Away for four.
11:22Oopsie.
11:25It's a no ball that.
11:29There you go.
11:30The winning runs.
11:32Come off the bat.
11:34Of Sanjay Krishnamurthy.
11:37What an innings he's played here.
11:39A task that looked near insurmountable.
11:42And they've done it with a couple of deliveries to spare.
