After a one-sided opening game we had a close encounter today. What does the third game have in store? We have Adelaide Strikers taking on Brisbane Heat tomorrow. Join us for that game. Until next time, goodbye and stay safe..
Steven Smith | Player of the Match: I thought it was a great performance. We had to dig deep there. Fraser-McGruk played a good knock, Finchy did not quite get going but he hung around and Sutherland towards the end.. we did well to hold our nerves. I started well but got stuck in the middle, I felt it was a par total on this surface. Good support for the first game of the season. I like playing BBL, love opening the batting and going out and expressing myself. Looking forward to a successful summer. Pakistan are a good side with bat and ball, hopefully we have success.
22:44 Local Time, 11:44 GMT, 17:14 IST: Excellent work by Sydney Sixers to defend this total.
19.6
Dwarshuis to Sutherland, 1 run, to long-on
19.5
Dwarshuis to Sutherland, no run
19.4
Dwarshuis to Sutherland, 2 runs, oh my! Silk has pulled off a blinder of a save.
FYI, the Sixers were behind the over-rate and had to get a fielder in for this over. So five men inside the ring
19.3
Dwarshuis to Sutherland, 2 runs, slower ball that is fraction short, Sutherland pulls it wide of long-on and calls for two straightaway,
19.2
Dwarshuis to Sutherland, SIX, that surely makes it interesting.
19.2
Dwarshuis to K Richardson, 2 wides, slower ball but sprayed well outside off, Richardson has no chance of connecting and Sutherland quickly crosses over. 20 off 5
Kane Richardson, right handed bat, comes to the crease
19.1
Dwarshuis to Tom Rogers, out Bowled!! Tom Rogers b Dwarshuis 10(12) [4s-1]
Dwarshuis to Tom Rogers, THATS OUT!! Bowled!!
Ben Dwarshuis [3.0-0-23-2] is back into the attack
22 needed off the last over. Dwarshuis going to bowl and Rogers will be on strike.
