Kevin Pietersen played a brilliant 42 ball 76 runs innings. But, James Faulkner and Glenn Maxwell failed to win thriller in the last over. Jacques Kallis held his nerve and win the match for Thunder.

A mic-ed up @KP24 smashing sixes on the MCG or watching the West Indies lose in 3 days in the Boxing Day test. How about 5 nights of #BBL05?

Missed the thriller. James The Finisher Faulkner failed to get 4 in 3 balls. Stars winless after 2 games #BBL05
