Melbourne Renegades won this match by 5 wickets!!

That's it for this game everyone!! We hope that you enjoyed this live coverage between Brisbane Heat and Melbourne Renegades. Stay tuned on Sportskeeda for all the live cricketing updates from around the world. This is Navjeevan Rajput and alongside me, Pradeep Somashekar signing off till then take care and stay safe!!
Harvey who was accompanied by Beau Webster really turned it on for the Renegades as they started to hit the Stars pacers to all parts of the grounds while inching closer and closer to the target. The duo scored 35 runs from the 18th and 19th overs taking apart the Star pacers Liam Hatcher.

Liam Hatcher had a big task in his hand to defend 6 runs off the final over and Webster and Harvey took the singles in the first half of the final over. Webster then hit the winning runs and turned it into quite the cracker of a game. With that, Renegades win their match first match playing at their home venue against their rivals Stars by 5 wickets and 2 balls to spare!!
Sam Harper after being kept quiet finally decided to shift gears and hammered away a boundary and a six to kick off. This, unfortunately, did not last long as he was caught in front of stumps and given out LBW!! Sam departed after contributing 39 runs but things were not looking good for them as still 70 runs were needed.

Mackenzie Harvey who came in started to hit the sixes and boundaries. This allowed Renegades to get back into this match. Harvey hammered a ball into the stands a couple of times.  It was dangerous for Stars as Harvey was able to hit the ball towards the off-side as well as the on-side.
Renegades were on the back foot once again easy on and they needed Sam Harper and Jake Fraser-McGurk to build the innings and take it deep. Stars skipper Maxwell rotated his bowlers well and did not the two of them settle in.

The scoring rate was going up and something had to give and it was Jake who was batting on 20 runs after hitting a six looked to repeat his shot. Sam who was batting slowly as well was stranged well by Stars bowlers as no pace was offered to him.
Coming into chase 159 runs, Aaron Finch and Shaun Marsh came out to open the batting. Marsh from whom Renegades had high hopes did not last long as Nathan Coulter-Nile just cleaned him up with a ripper in the first over itself.

Renegades skipper started to get the boundaries and lost his wicket in the most bizarre fashion as the ball just went on to knock off the zig bails of his thigh pads. This up him total disbelief as he walked back in pure frustration!!

19.3 Liam Hatcher to Mackenzie Harvey, overpitched on the off stump as Harvey backs away for room and looks to smack that one away but doesn't time all that well and hits it down to mid-off fielder as he scampers through for a quick single.
