Thanks a lot for joining us- Sooryanarayanan Sesha and Mohul Bhowmick- for this fascinating game of cricket from the Big Bash League. We hope you enjoyed it. Until next time, take care and goodbye!

Ashton Agar is the Player of the Match for his stunning returns of 2/6 off four overs. Here's what he has to say: (When did he know it was going to turn today?) Second ball (laughs). I bowled that ball to Cam Bancroft. It looked like it was going to turn to be honest but you bowl a fast side-spin and see. When that turns you know what's going to happen. Bowling left-arm off-spin out there spinning away from the bat is the hardest ball to hit. So I didn't have to do much out there in the Power Surge and just had to leave it to the pitch. Our quicks adjusted nicely as well at the back end. They're so good to get. When you don't get a conventional wicket and get a run out it's a beautiful feeling and there were some pretty good players we got run out. We've felt good the whole time if I'm being honest. We try our best, stick to our plans and move on quickly. We don't dwell much on wins or losses.

Perth Scorchers beat Sydney Thunder by 7 wickets!

Alex Hales 72 (55) | Cooper Connolly 3-25
Zak Crawley 58 (56) | Ashton Agar 2-6

Despite the surface being a little challenging to bat upon, Perth Scorchers managed to chase the total set to them by the Sydney Thunder quite comfortably in the end. 

The Scorchers seemed to hit a rut in the middle stages of the game, but Josh Inglis and Zak Crawley made sure that they did not have anything to worry about. 

Crawley batted beautifully- he scored a half-century- but once he got out, things seemed to get tough for the visitors. Skipper Aaron Hardie too had got out a while ago. 

However, Inglis, accompanied by Laurie Evans, took the Scorchers across the finish line and did so with more than an over to spare. The Thunder will be extremely disappointed with themselves for not having pulled off a win at home, but they can take a lot of lessons from this one. 

Skipper Chris Green missed a trick by allowing his seamers to keep bowling on a pitch doing little for them, and that is where the Scorchers took the game away from them. At any rate, they had far too few runs on the board for their liking.

Inglis' coming to the crease made things look far too easy for the Scorchers!

19.1 Chris Green to Laurie Evans, FOUR! DONE AND DUSTED! Drags it short at the stumps as Evans hops aside to free his arms. He picks the length and twirls his wrists to wallop a pull over mid-wicket. All he had to do was clear the inner ring and the ball races away to the ropes. This has been one professional chase by the two-time defending champions on a very difficult pitch. Perth Scorchers return to winning ways with a 7-wicket win!

Chris Green [3-0-18-1] will bowl the final over.

Inglis seemed determined to win this game in this over itself, but it was not to be. The Scorchers will have to do so in the final over of the game. Having forced it into the final over, the Thunder will be hoping for a miracle.

18.6 Nathan McAndrew to Josh Inglis, WHOOSH! Swings hard at this full one in the channel as he looks to power it over long on to wrap things up. Connects with fresh air only!

18.5 Nathan McAndrew to Josh Inglis, WHOA! Width offered on a back of a length radar as he dishes out another off-cutter. Inglis is taken aback completely as he looks to steer it late before the awkward bounce and inward nip takes it over his blade

18.4 Nathan McAndrew to Josh Inglis, aims for the yorker at the stumps. Inglis works this low full toss to short mid-wicket, no run

18.4 Nathan McAndrew to Josh Inglis, WIDE AGAIN! Slower back of a length delivery at the stumps. McAndrew is on target again but such is the nature of this pitch that it wobbles down past Inglis' swivel again to the keeper

Inglis got all of that! Terrific batting by Inglis!

18.3 Nathan McAndrew to Josh Inglis, SIX! TAKE THAT! Right in the slot outside the off stump and Inglis is having none of it. Pumps it dead straight through the line of it with a clean swing of the blade as it soars over the sightscreen!

18.3 Nathan McAndrew to Josh Inglis, WIDE! Slants it just down the leg-side on a back of a length radar. Another off-pace delivery and Inglis fails to connect on his attempt to help it fine before the keeper tidies up to his left

18.2 Nathan McAndrew to Josh Inglis, full length delivery outside the off stump. Inglis stays beside the line and punches a drive off the front foot past cover for a couple of runs

18.1 Nathan McAndrew to Laurie Evans, pounds it into a hard length on leg stump as Evans backs away. He swivels before copping it on the midriff as it rolls to short fine leg for a leg bye

12 run came off this over! Inglis looks like he is hitting the ball cleanly. This will work well for the Scorchers, who are on course for victory here.

17.6 Daniel Sams to Josh Inglis, full and following the batter backing away from around the wicket. Inglis looks to carve it inside out but gets a leading edge that drops shy of the man at short third

17.5 Daniel Sams to Laurie Evans, off-cutter angling across the batter from over the wicket. Evans opens the face on this length delivery and creams it to deep point
