That’s a big score from Southern Brave. They didn’t explode out of the blocks, and de Kock was out early, but Stirling started hitting sixes on a steady basis, then upgraded that to a frequent basis. He put some urgency into the innings with his 61 from 36 balls, Alex Davies did a good steady job with 27 from 20, Tim David gave a quick nitro boost with 15 from 6, then Ross Whiteley took it home with 44 from 19. He was seriously good: 4 and 4 for each type of boundary, while Stirling hit six sixes and only two fours.
100 balls: 168-5 (Whiteley 44, Jordan 5) Whiteley just waited for Milne to go away. Then whacks the first ball from Pennington over long off for six. An attractive drive, followed by an ugly hack off an inside edge that beats his leg stump and hit the fence at fine leg.
Third ball, flicked off his pads for six. Clean, economical, it’s like a rental VW Golf. Looks better though, and goes faster.
