Star Adelaide Strikers wicketkeeper-batsman Alex Carey<\/a> was at his clinical best on his way to 82 runs off just 59 balls against the Perth Scorchers tonight, but his innings was soured by one daring single.<\/p>\n

When the Strikers were 3-73 at the 9.4-over mark, Carey bunted a Mitchell Marsh delivery slightly to the left of cover and took off.<\/p>\n

And the dangerous Jono Wells, who had averaged 34.67 at a strike-rate of 122.11 across his Big Bash League career ahead of the Adelaide Oval fixture, made a desperate dash to the other end only to be run out well short of the crease by Englishman Jason Roy.<\/p>\n

It meant Wells' day with the bat had ended on two runs and Carey would remain not out on 36.<\/p>\n

Fox Cricket commentator Brendan Julian was stunned.<\/p>\n

"Ah, the Strikers!" Julian said.<\/p>\n

"What are they doing!<\/p>\n

"It was some great work in the field. Carey hit it really well, great work from Roy. Then he knew straight away that Wells was at the non-striker's.<\/p>\n

"He's way out."<\/p>\n

The Strikers made 9-146 from 20 overs, setting the Scorchers 147 runs to win the match.<\/p>\n
