So that's all from this double header in the Big Bash League. A nervous Sunday awaits a few of these teams now. Join us for the remaining games, bye for now!
Jason Behrendorff | Player of the Match: Really exciting to get it done tonight. We are so lucky we get to play here, it was buzzing tonight. A nervous 24 hours now. Things are certainly changing here, but it is a hard one to describe. We have to do what we need to do, and it is exciting to see youngsters like Mahli come in and get a game as well. He’s had a stellar year, and I guess a lot of posters on a lot of kid’s walls of Cooper Connolly now.
