BIG BASH LEAGUE ROUND-UP
JAKE Weatherald and Alex Carey put on a hundred partnership as they helped the Adelaide Strikers end a four match losing run with a shock win over the Hobart Hurricanes in Launceston.
The win kept the Strikers’ slim finals hopes alive while the Hurricanes lost for the third time batting first this season.
Chasing 170, Weatherald and Carey scored 84 runs in the power play against a Hurricanes attack.
Weatherald fell 18 runs shy of another Big Bash century – but his 82 runs from just 42 balls played a massive part in making the chase relatively straight forward – while Carey’s 54 from 35 was just as important as the Strikers won with 12 balls to spare and with seven wickets in hand.
Elsewhere, Cameron Boyce has smashed the quickest half-century of the BBL season to propel the Melbourne Renegades into the semi-finals with a 27-run win over the Sydney Thunder at Marvel Stadium.
