Commentary

That is all from the action here, this is Sourabh signing off on behalf of Arya. We hope you enjoyed the coverage, keep following Sportskeeda. See you soon!

Moises Henriques is the Player of the Match: I think I said it before that we have had lots of nerve wracking games. We have had many balls flying off thickish edges. I felt they got 10-15 runs more than what they deserved but it was a great pitch. Today I was thinking about watching the ball and target the short boundary. The ball was sliding on pretty well. They bowled the tough overs, late in the powerplay. As I said, the boys bowled a lot better than what their figures suggest.

22:33 Local Time (17:03 IST): Sydney Sixers won by 5 wickets with 9 balls remaining

Led by a high-quality unbeaten knock from their skipper Moises Henriques, Sydney Sixers have won their season opener against Melbourne Renegades and are off the mark in their first game itself.

Chasing a par 170 on a good SCG track, Sixers lost Josh Phillipe early as the opener nicked off in the second over with the team score at 19. That did not deter his partner James Vince and number 3 Jack Edwards from keeping the temp going as they stitched up a 62-run stand for the second wicket.

Both the batters were taking the game away from the Renegades and that is when Kane Richardson broke the partnership dismissing Edwards. Two more fell as Sixers went from 81/1 to 104/4 and then 126/5 with Renegades' skipper Sutherland leading the charge with a couple of wickets.

The match was placed in a precarious position when Moises Henriques decided to take matter in his own hands and he showed all his experience and range as he thrashed the bowlers and paced his innings beautifully. The power surge, taken in the 17th over, turned out to be the game changer and those two overs yielded 26 runs for the Sixers which got them really close to the finish line.

In the end, Ben Dwarishus sealed the deal with a couple of hits and got the two points for the Sixers.

18.3 Will Sutherland to Ben Dwarshuis, FOUR! That's game set and match as the Sydney Sixers win by 5 wickets. On a length a shade outside off, Dwarshuis holds his shape and slaps it down the ground, finds the straight boundary.

18.2 Will Sutherland to Ben Dwarshuis, on a good-length angling across Dwarshuis, a shade outside off, he goes flashing at that without making contact.

18.1 Will Sutherland to Ben Dwarshuis, SIX! This time Dwarshuis gets it from the middle of the bat. That was in the slot around middle and leg, Dwarshuis clears his front leg and swipes it across the line for a massive 108 metre six.

Will Sutherland [2.0-0-10-2] to bowl

16 off the over and the game is almost over. 8 needed off the final 2 overs and you can place your bets on the Sixers now, surely there are no more twists

17.6 Adam Zampa to Moises Henriques, digs out the yorker-length delivery a shade outside off, down towards the extra cover fielder.

26-ball fifty for Moises Henriques, that is one hell of a knock from the Sixers' skipper and he brings it up with the shot of the night

17.5 Adam Zampa to Moises Henriques, SIX! Sublime hitting from Henriques. Comes down the track toa good-length leg break around middle and launches it inside out, makes exceptional contact and comfortably clears the extra cover fence.

17.4 Adam Zampa to Ben Dwarshuis, Dwarshuis gets away with a false shot. On a fuller-length around off, Dwarshuis slices it towards the mid-off fielder, a one handed attempt goes in vain.

17.3 Adam Zampa to Moises Henriques, flatter on a length a shade outside off, carved away towards the point region for a single.

16 off 16 now, run-a-ball

17.2 Adam Zampa to Moises Henriques, works away the flatter good-length delivery around middle, towards the square leg region and comes back for a brace.

96-m biggie, you don't do that to Zampa, Moises! This is certainly Sixers' game to lose now

17.1 Adam Zampa to Moises Henriques, SIX! Henriques comes dancing down the track to a flighted delivery around middle, in the slot and Henriques swings it across the line, /from the centre of the bat and comfortably clears the deep midwicket fence.

Adam Zampa [3.0-0-18-0] for his final over

10 off the over and Moises keeps the strike with the single off the last ball! This is all going as per plans for the Sixers so far but there are still 24 runs to be scored in 3 overs. Renegades want Moises desperately
