Commentator: Binoy George
Sixers won by 64 runs. The Strikers lost early wickets and never seemed to be in the game and that is it. Sydney Sixers move into third place on the table after this excellent win. Steve O'Keefe is the Man-of-the-Match for his three wickets. Thanks for tuning in, do join us again for the next Big Bash game, until then have fun.
