Behrendorff, Player of the Match: Length is crucial, it's so important to hit that top of off. Made it hard for the batters to score. For me swinging the ball is my strength. I need to take wickets and restrict the runs in the powerplay. Trying to bring that to the table. I tried not to bowl length during the power surge. Missed Richardson, he has done so well for us. We have played together for a long period of time. It shows on the field how we go about it.

21:37 Local Time, 11:37 GMT, 17:07 IST: As expected, the Scorchers were clinical in the run chase, taking confidence from their thumping win over the same opponents in the previous fixture. Inititally, the visitors stuttered a bit as they lost 2 wickets inside the PowerPlay, with both openers back in the hut. But, Aaron Hardie and Josh Inglis got together and played according to the situation and kept the scoreboard ticking. They didn't even provide a half-chance to the opposition and ran away with the show, getting past their respective fifties. An unbeaten 132-run partnership between them killed the game. Earlier, Brisbane posted a modest total. Their top order batters got off to starts but couldn't convert them into big ones. A flourish from Peirson and Bryant at the back end got them to a respectable total. Behrendorff was the star with the ball for the visitors, as he picked a 3-fer. Eventually, it was a comfortable victory for the Scorchers and that has propelled them to the top of the table!
