Tim David, known for his explosive hitting, played a vital cameo in the Big Bash League (BBL) qualifier between Hobart Hurricanes and Sydney Sixers. The Australian finisher, batting at number five, scored 25 runs before falling to an unexpected dismissal off a full toss delivered by Ben Dwarshuis.

The incident took place in the 19th over of the Hurricanes’ innings, as they were looking to set a strong target. Dwarshuis, bowling his final over, kept things tight with only three runs off the first two balls. On the third ball, a full toss, David attempted to clear the boundary but mistimed his shot. The ball went high into the air, and Lachlan Shaw at deep midwicket took a comfortable catch, ending David’s stay at the crease.

Hobart Hurricanes Post 173/7

Hobart Hurricanes started their innings strongly after being asked to bat first. Mitchell Owen and Caleb Jewell put up an impressive 47-run opening stand in just 4.1 overs. However, the Sixers struck back as Matthew Wade departed for just four runs.

Ben McDermott steadied the innings with a solid knock of 42, while Tim David and Nikhil Chaudhary provided late fireworks. Chaudhary added a quick 14 off 11 balls, ensuring the Hurricanes posted a competitive total of 173/7 in their 20 overs.

David, who will feature for Royal Challengers Bangalore in IPL 2025, showcased his usual attacking style during his short stay. However, his dismissal at a crucial point meant the Hurricanes couldn’t capitalize fully in the final overs.

Match Situation

The Hurricanes’ bowlers now have the task of defending 173 against a strong Sydney Sixers lineup. With short boundaries at the Bellerive Oval, the total could be challenging to defend. However, the Hurricanes’ early breakthroughs could turn the tide in their favor.
