Thunder losing streak continues

Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe's Flash Player.

THE miserable losing streak of Thunder has reached 14 after they failed to capitalise on a hot start against the Sixers.

Despite an explosive hundred run opening stand from David Warner and Usman Khawaja, the Thunder failed to capitalise, losing a steady stream of wickets late in their innings to set a modest target of 6-166.

It was the sniff the Sixers needed, Nic Maddinson's 61 providing an excellent platform for the chasing team, before Moises Henriques and Ravi Bopara brought the Sixers home.

Warner continued his scintillating form and showed intent from the get-go. He hit three fours in the first over he faced and raced to his 50 off just 30 balls.

But he was matched by Khawaja at the other end, who kept up with Warner's scoring

But if the Thunder started with a bang, they ended with a whimper.

Warner's wicket brought former Test star Mike Hussey to the crease, but his stay was brief after he top-edged one and was caught by Dan Smith for 2.

Regular wickets stemmed the flow of runs, with Moises Henriques taking the big one of Khawaja.

There were no significant contributions after that and the Thunder will be bitterly disappointed after failing to capitalize on such a strong start.

More to come...
