Lynn, Maxwell, Stoinis, Short, Webster scored massive points and we had all of them in our Fantasy Expert XI. Hope you also did the same. The Fantasy Handbook is a thing of joy if you want to indulge in some fantasy picks. So, stay glued and keep following the same.
Marcus Stoinis | Player of the Match: It was good fun, the boys set it up though for me to come out and put a few swings on it. They played really well. It was about time I put a swing on it. I did a bit of work with the coach. My thought hadn't changed after that partnership between Maxi and Beau, they put us in a position where I could come in and express myself. Otherwise, I would have looked to dig deeper and take my time. Once you hit a few in the middle, the body seems to organise itself. It's lovely here, beautiful crowd, 44,000 people, great way ro spend New Year's Eve. Couldn't have more fun.
21:51 Local Time, 11:21 GMT, 16:51 IST: Stoinis and Webster have finished it off in style. Especially, Stoinis. He was under some pressure before the game. But he broke the shackles in style today. Earlier, Lawrence got them off to a fast start. He set the platform. Maxwell came in and played a cameo as well. Webster held the chase together and Stoinis landed the finishing moves.
