That is it from this game then! There is another game going on and it is between the Strikers and Perth. You can catch all the action by switching tabs. Until next time, take care and goodbye!
Earlier in the day, after electing to bowl. Sydney Sixers got timely breakthroughs to restrict the Stars to 150. In reply, Moises Henriques batted brilliantly to take his side over the line with a fine knock.
Melbourne Stars bowled well for the majority of the innings but their fielding let them down! The likes of Zampa, Boult and Wood were really good but a dropped chance and also some misfields and crucial time took the game away. Also, the dew towards the end did not help. Overall though, they just were not upto the mark in this game.
That is a top effort from Moises Henriques, the skipper has really led from the front and taken his side over the line. Sydney Sixers were were in a spot of bother after the partnership between James Vince and Kurtis Patterson! They lost the two quickly and the run rate went upto 9. Jordan Silk was struggling but Moises Henriques batted brilliantly. He played a very calculated knock to take, got timely boundaries to take the pressure of Silk who later started to play well. THe two added around 90 to take their side over the line.

THERE IS THE WINNING RUNS! It as another chance of a run out but would not have mattered. A low full toss, Silk looks to hit it over cover but it goes off the inner half towards mid-wicket for one. Sydney Sixers WIN BY 7 WICKETS!

SIX! That is massive! On middle, a slower one. This is heaved over the leg side for a massive biggie. That should be the hit which kills the game.

MISFIELD AND FOUR! Shorter and on middle, this is pulled towards deep mid-wicket. Hilton Cartwright runs to his right, he slides but fails to stop it. That is something the Stars could not afford.

Misfield and three! On the pads, Jordan Silk flicks it towards deep square leg. The fielder there dives over the ball, he does well though to get back to his feet, run back and push it back in. Three taken though in the end.
