LIVE Hobart Hurricanes vs Perth Scorchers: Hobart beat Perth by 8 runs

The Launceston home crowd cheers the Hurricanes as they leave the field. It was a true roller-coaster of a run chase, and Wade's guys were victorious in the end. Both Inglis' heroics and Faf's scorching cameo early in the game scared them, and at both points, it appeared as though the visitors were taking control of the match. But on both occasions, Dooley's unorthodox left-arm finger spin was what made the difference.
