10.20pm How do so many of these games come alive so late? It was a cruise of a run-chase till the last few overs when bats got stuck in the turf, needless run-outs and exotic scoops brought the game back. But so hard it is to defend 130 that in spite of that, the Perth Scorchers romped home with six balls to spare.
In the end, the Renegades' score was just not enough. Brad Hogg, Dwayne Bravo and some disciplined bowling made things interesting for a while, but it was always going to be a tough task.

Richardson to Turner, SIX, that's it, done with an over to spare! What was the fuss about? Full and wide outside off, sliced over point. No one there and it clears the boundary and the Scorchers have won three in three

2
Richardson to Turner, 2 runs, overthrows! There is a direct hit at the bowler's end. It's chaos. Terrific yorker is jammed out towards short cover. Richardson picks up, turns around and hits the stumps at the bowler's end. He is in and they'll make an overthrow
6 off 8. Tye is in

Richardson to Richardson, OUT, run-out! T20 madness. Full and wide outside off, sliced to point. The batsmen go through for one, the point fielder picks up and throws to Richardson, who takes off the bails at the bowler's end. Hodge at point. That's experience. Run-out by a mile
