10.35pm: A captain's knock from Aaron Finch, unbeaten on 63 from 54, guides his side home in what could have been a tricky chase - even more so when Renegades were 3 for 16 in the third over. The Strikers innings looked underpowered and so it proved. They now stand no chance of making it into the top five and will have to regroup after a disappointing 2022-23 campaign. Finch is Player of the Match: "To get the guys over the line, in a tight game, do or die, it's nice. It's always a rollercoaster, we had a chance a couple of games ago to cement our spot, so nice to have finally done it. I tried to bat as far out of my crease as I was allowed, to take out the lb." Anyway, that's a wrap for tonight, we've still got a couple more games to come to conclude the BBL group stage. Thanks for commenting, from myself and PDP, it's cheerio for now. Bye!

Just nine to win for Renegades

"4-0 to India, really Alan...? India is having real problems with their batters where as Australia has for the first time 4 excellent players of spin. i would say it will depend on toss a bit more." I was being slightly facetious, sixty. But India haven't lost a Test series at home in a decade, and have plenty of batters (Kohli, Gill, Pujara, Iyer) who can score hundreds in their own conditions
