The Thunder have won a nail-biter by 5 wickets over the Strikers and in the process have put themselves in prime position for a finals spot. Trenaman and Beaumont got the Thunder off to a great start in their chase of 134 as the Thunder were always in control of the required rate. The Strikers managed to peg it back through some good bowling and a great catch from Penna, leaving the Thunder with 22 to get off the last 3 overs. Litchfield and Haynes managed to find a boundary each in the 18th over to ease the pressure and requiring just 6 off the last over, Litchfield finished the game with two balls to go with a boundary through backward square leg.
