Commentary

That brings us to the end of our coverage for this BBL encounter. Till the next time, this is myself (Arya Sekhar Chakraborty) signing off also on behalf of my fellow commentator Meeth Agrawal.

Tom Rogers (2/40 & 49* - Player of the Match): It has been a topsy-turvy week. Let the team down against the Stars but glad that I could do the job tonight. Means a lot to win especially after how it went in the previous game where we messed up in key moments. We discussed about the dimensions here before, similar to MCG. Came in with a positive mindset and hopefully we swing some momentum in the next game.

Melbourne Renegades won by 4 wickets (with two deliveries to spare)

Will Sutherland 70(45) | Adam Zampa 3/27(4)
Ashton Agar 51(30) | Lance Morris 2/21(4)

A hard fought contest has come to an end and at the end of it, the Melbourne Renegades have managed to recover from an early slump and register a famous victory which they will remember for a long time. The target of 148 was going to be a tricky one for the Renegades and once the Renegades kept losing early wickets, it looked like the Scorchers were in complete command of proceedings.

Tim Seifert departed off the very first over of Jason Behrendorff. Jake Fraser-McGurk couldn't quite bother the scorers either as he was dismissed for a golden duck. At 0/2, the likes of Marcus Harris and Jacob Bethell needed a partnership to bail them out of the precarious situation. Bethell and Laurie Evans departed pretty soon as they were reduced to 10/4 inside the 5th over.

Harris and captain Will Sutherland started rebuilding the sinking ship and shared a 34 runs stand before Harris nicked one straight to Finn Allen behind the stumps. The game turned around dramatically when Sutherland was joined by Tom Rogers in the middle. The duo took their time initially but then started finding the boundaries on a consistent basis.

A partnership of 92 runs brought them right back in the contest as boundaries kept flowing from their blade. Sutherland struck a match winning 70 off 45 deliveries which included 5 fours and 3 sixes but he was dismissed in the penultimate delivery of the 19th over which cracked the game open yet again.

Tom Rogers was still out there and eventually ensured that three big shots in the final over was enough to take them over the finish line. Jason Behrendorff, Jhye Richardson and Lance Morris were the pick of the bowlers, bagging two wickets each.

19.4 Matthew Kelly to Tom Stewart Rogers, FOUR! Rogers has done it! Short ball on the leg stump, Rogers pulls it away between square leg and fine leg for a boundary. Melbourne Renegades win by four wickets. Agony for Perth Scorchers!

19.4 Matthew Kelly to Tom Stewart Rogers, WIDE! A full toss outside leg and it has been called a WIDE!

19.3 Matthew Kelly to Tom Stewart Rogers, two runs. Another slower one and Rogers lofts it towards extra covers for a quick double.

19.2 Matthew Kelly to Tom Stewart Rogers, SIX!!! Can you believe it? A slower one overpitched on the stumps, Rogers holes it over extra covers for a six.

19.1 Matthew Kelly to Tom Stewart Rogers, FREE HIT! A slower one on the off stump but Rogers hits it to the fielder at long off. Doesn't take a single.

19.1 Matthew Kelly to Tom Stewart Rogers, WICKET!!! Another blow here! OHH NO! It's a NO BALL! What have you done Kelly! A full toss outside off and Rogers mistimes it to put it in the hands of short third man. But it was over waist and the umpire signals a NO BALL!

Thomas Kelly [3-0-24-0] is back into the attack.

That's the end of the penultimate over and still 12 runs required off the final over. Will Sutherland couldn't quite get their side to the finish line but have given them a chance to secure victory from a very difficult situation.

18.6 Jhye Richardson to Gurinder Sandhu, dot ball to end the over. Overpitched outside off, Sandhu tries to get a bat on it but gets beaten by pace.

Gurinder Sandhu, LHB comes out to the crease.

There is still life left in the game. Sutherland misses out on the slot delivery. A cue ender which went up in the air for a long and the mid on fielder doesn't make the contact he was after.

18.5 Jhye Richardson to Will Sutherland, OUT! A big moment in the game. It was right in the slot, a slower one pitched full outside off, Sutherland comes under it but gets too much elevation as the ball lands safely in the hands of the fielder at long off.

18.4 Jhye Richardson to Tom Stewart Rogers, length ball outside off, Rogers smacks it towards mid on and they run a quick single. A direct hit would have meant Rogers had to go back.

18.3 Jhye Richardson to Tom Stewart Rogers, FOUR!!! A slower full toss outside off, Rogers slaps it over extra covers for a boundary.

18.2 Jhye Richardson to Will Sutherland, overpitched on the legs, flicked towards mid on for a single.

18.1 Jhye Richardson to Tom Stewart Rogers, one run. A slower full toss. Rogers had no idea how to play it. Gets a bat somehow and runs for a single.
