Commentary

The Sixers winning this not so easily and they had to walk a minefield of wickets to chase a low scoring total here! There was some absolute drama in this one and the bowlers showing no remorse to the batters even when the target was just a mere 150! The bowlers started off well with the first couple of overs as they did not allow the batters to hit the big shots early on but the openers stood ground and they made some runs on the board giving the Sixers a good start in the contest. It was Fawad, who got them a much needed breakthrough but it was still a longshot from winning for the bowlers as the batters kept the scoreboard ticking. The scoreboard wasn't going to tick for long as the bowlers strike yet again with 2 wickets and slow things down for the Sixers after which Henriques and Silk were the batters who made a good partnership to get the team back on track and it looked like the Sixers were going to win this with a one sided margin as there was no scope of a comeback from that point on. But the master of spin bowling comes into the attack and takes a deadly 2 wickets in 2 balls and turns the entire match around leaving Silk as the sole hitter in the team. It was not long after that when Silk departed as well and suddenly it looked like the Strikers were going to win the match with a sensational comeback but Sean Abbott took the driver's seat with the bat like he did with the ball and got them to chase down the total in the last over. Absolute drama in a low scoring game as well! That is what the BBL is all about! The Strikers gave an excellent fight to the Sixers here, but fell just short and with that the Sixers will look to go back to the top of the table.

Thank you so much for joining us for yet another exciting game of cricket. This is Prashanth Satish and Pranav Danani signing off. Until next time.

Sydney Sixers won by 4 wickets

19.2 Peter Siddle to Hayden Kerr, SIX! GAME OVER! Kerr does it in style, what a way to finish. Short ball and Kerr shapes up to pull this one away with disdain over square leg as he picked the slower one early and sends it over the ropes to finish in style

19.1 Peter Siddle to Hayden Kerr, over the infield, good-length ball outside the off-stump and Kerr does well to get this one over covers and they run hard to get back for a couple.

Peter Siddle (rfm) (3-0-32-0) to bowl the final over of this innings and it is run a ball, 6 off 6 to win this one.

18.6 George Garton to Sean Abbott, FOUR! What a finish, Abbott with a seriously good knock here. Full-length ball on off-stump and Abbott drives this one hard down to long off for a boundary

18.5 George Garton to Sean Abbott, BEATEN! Good comeback from Garton, slightly slower and angling across the right hander and Abbott tries to punch this one away through the off side but fails to connect

18.4 George Garton to Sean Abbott, PULLED! FOUR! Shortish ball and Abbott picks this one early and goes deep into the crease to pull this one away square of the wicket for a boundary.

The main batter departs! This is a huge wicket for the bowlers and they have a big chance of winning this one! They need a few dots or a wicket to add the pressure! Hayden Kerr (rhb) making his way out to the middle.

18.3 George Garton to Jordan Silk, OUT! CAUGHT! This game keeps swinging one way and the other, length ball into the wicket and outside the off-stump and Silk punches this one away uppishly to the sweeper cover fielder. Game on here

Jordan Silk c sub (HJ Hunt) b Garton 36 (24b 5x4 0x6)

18.2 George Garton to Sean Abbott, in the gap, low full toss on off-stump and Abbott puts this one away in the gap between mid-wicket and long on and they run well to get three this time

18.1 George Garton to Sean Abbott, slow and on a length on off-stump, Abbott waits for this and pulls it away to mid-wicket for a couple

Silk taking the driver's seat for hitting the runs here after Rashid Khan caused some major havoc to the batting line up here. He has to stay on here if the Sixers have to win this one.
