Earlier in the day, the Strikers’ opted to chase after winning the toss and watched their opposition’s openers, Perry and Sophia Dunkley (54 off 40) stitch a 141-run stand. But as has been a recurring theme in Sixers’ season, a wicket led to a wobble and the final four overs brought just 32 runs. Eleanor Larosa was the pick of Strikers’ bowlers, taking all four wickets to fall and giving away just 20 from her quota of overs.
