10:45pm Right. That will be all from us for this game. Hope you enjoyed our coverage as much as we loved bringing it to you. The bottom line, if you were unable to tune in, is that the Hurricanes' qualification hopes are still up and running, while the Renegades' hopes have been extinguished.
We will be back with more BBL action tomorrow as the Adelaide Strikers host the Perth Scorchers. Until then, this is goodbye from Sudeep and me. Take care, folks!
Sam Hain is the Player of the Match, here is what he has to say: (On the win and his innings) Very pleasing. We know it is very tight. The boys are very happy with the win. I will be honest, it (the BBL) has not gone the way I wanted it to so far. It is a competition I have loved watching over the years. Means a lot to be a part of it and contribute today. Have my mates over from the Gold Coast. (On the hamstring) We'll say it is a cramp (smiles) but will have to assess with the physio. We will see how it is.
10:35pm A fairly comfortable run-chase in the end, headlined by Hain's half-century and Anderson's unbeaten 41. McDermott, too, did his bit at the start, keeping the required run-rate in check. There was a brief period, when McDermott got out and the Anderson-Hain partnership scratched around but that proved to be an anomaly, rather than a phase that would prove decisive.
Another disjointed performance by the Renegades, and that sort of sums up their season. There were brief spurts of brilliance, like the Cox-Wells partnership or O'Neill's brilliant opening spell. Those moments, though, were far and few in between, and they eventually limped to their sixth defeat of the season, which has definitively put them out of contention.
David is not happy with his bat, and has asked for a change
Siddle to bowl what could be the final over of this game. Anderson on strike. Five fielders in the circle, for what it is worth
