48th Over
So that is good-bye from Adelaide Oval and we look forward to seeing you again for the sheffield Shield match on Tuesday.
Brad Haddin has been named Man of the Match for his fine 125.
Redbacks looked lost early on with no hope of a win but skipper Botha and Ludeman did a great job to get the run rate up, especially in the last Power-play. Sadly for them they couldn't finish it off and will miss this years final.
