- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.5 sliced to cover! Mujeeb strikes... looked like a googly, straightening a touch from round the wicket as Patterson looked to make room for the cut. Picked out Richardson for a smart catch going to his left 32/111.6 scooped to short fine leg! The ice-cream man goes, looking get something with sprinkles on.... but Sutherland bowled this slow into the pitch and Philippe couldn't manufacture enough power on the shot. Taken on the move by Hossein, and Renegades break the stand 91/214.4 bowled 'im! Slower ball and Vince plays over it. Nicely disguised legcutter from Sutherland and it doesn't get up as Vince expects, clips the top of middle as he swings across the line 111/412.3 length ball, defended into the on side via the pads... and Henriques is going to be run out! The Sixers captain completely scuppered himself there, he was more than halfway down by the time he realised there wasn't a run. Tried to get back as Rogers turned and had a shy, and Shaun Marsh was on hand to complete the job 93/317.4 sliced to short third! Fast, flat stuff from Mujeeb and Silk just couldn't get hold if him. Looking to make room on this one and was reaching for it in the end, squirting a big edge to the man stood on the edge of the ring 129/616.4 banged in and Christian attempts to cut... given! Christian has a chat with Silk but in the end walks off. Richardson was pretty convinced as the ball zipped past the top edge, though it took a while for Sharad Patel to raise his finger. Not much else it could have hit, if there was a sound 127/517.6 Kerr holes out to long-on! Two in the over for Mujeeb, as the Power Surge undoes Sixers. Classic case of the old batting powerplay shafting the side that takes it... full in the slot but he can't get under the ball, sends a simple catch down the ground 130/718.4 skied into the covers, safely grabbed! Richardson outfoxes Abbott as he looks to launch down the ground. Full and wide, a big top edge skews high into the off side and Maddinson runs around to settle underneath the catch 133/8Extras3 (w 3)TOTAL149/8 (20 Overs, RR: 7.45)Did not bat: T MurphyFall of wickets: 1-32 (Kurtis Patterson, 4.5 ov), 2-91 (Josh Philippe, 11.6 ov), 3-93 (Moises Henriques, 12.3 ov), 4-111 (James Vince, 14.4 ov), 5-127 (Dan Christian, 16.4 ov), 6-129 (Jordan Silk, 17.4 ov), 7-130 (Hayden Kerr, 17.6 ov), 8-133 (Sean Abbott, 18.4 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR0.4 nicked him off! Guptill gets a duck on Renegades debut, big early strike for Sixers. Length ball hung out wide and he's looking to punch on the up, just feathers a catch behind. Dwarshuis amongst 'em 1/13.4 swivelled, but straight to midwicket! Not out of the middle as he looked to pull over the ring, and Vince takes a leaping catch going to his right. Pressure telling. Maddinson trails off with 1 off 8 and this is already looking like it'll be a bareknuckle fight to the finish 8/213.2 flubbed into the covers! Slows it up and Finch hacks a cross-batted shot straight up. Finch knew he had to go here but never got hold of his shot, and the catch is safely pouched by Henriques 71/510.4 bowled him, top of off! Beautifully bowled by Kerr and Sixers have broken the stand. Hits a length and straightens it down the line, shivers the bails and off goes Marsh, just as he was beginning to take charge of this chase 63/312.5 flicked off the pads, straight to deep square leg! Fired in and Wells gets a good connection... too good, as it sails down the throat of the man set back on the rope. Renegades sink further in their pursuit 67/416.4 miscued to mid-on! Back of a length and Handscomb hits out, gets out. Deep in the crease but it hits high on the bat as he looks to heave it over midwicket. Pretty much goodnight Vienna for the Gades 91/814.5 nicked behind, Abbott strikes now! Length ball, hits the seam and takes the edge as Hossein aims a wild thrash down the ground. Sixers closing in here 76/616.2 Abbott holds a screamer! Sliced over backward point but there's a heck of a lot of work for Abbott to do as he runs in off the rope. But he gets under the ball and completes a sliding catch two-handed to give Dwarshuis his third of the night 90/717.5 slower ball, deflected into the stumps! Richardson done for the lack of pace as he swings across the line, takes the toe end and mangles the poles. Sixers one away from sealing this 110/918.6 squirted to backward point! Taken above the head, nice bit of fielding from Christian and Sixers have skewered this chase with room to spare 115/10Extras8 (lb 2, w 6)TOTAL115 all out (19 Overs, RR: 6.05)Fall of wickets: 1-1 (Martin Guptill, 0.4 ov), 2-8 (Nic Maddinson, 3.4 ov), 3-63 (Shaun Marsh, 10.4 ov), 4-67 (Jonathan Wells, 12.5 ov), 5-71 (Aaron Finch, 13.2 ov), 6-76 (Akeal Hosein, 14.5 ov), 7-90 (Will Sutherland, 16.2 ov), 8-91 (Peter Handscomb, 16.4 ov), 9-110 (Kane Richardson, 17.5 ov), 10-115 (Mujeeb Ur Rahman, 18.6 ov)
