END OF OVER:1 | MR-W: 6/1
Will Renegades hand the ball to Tahuhu? Ideally, they'd want to take pace off the ball. The surface is a little up and down, there's grip and bounce, but it will be too much of a gamble to give the ball to a spinner as they're defending just 6.
Remember, if this is a tie again, Renegades will win because they have more boundaries.
S Molineux run out
Molineux and Wyatt will come out. Both biffers of the ball, Sixers should bowl length to either, they're both strong square of the wicket. One boundary, especially on the leg side from the end they'll bowl, is super short. Here we go
Marizanne Kapp can swing the new ball. Will she go full and straight? Wyatt takes guard. Surely she's eyeing that leg side boundary.
If you missed it earlier today, I'll leave you with this cracking piece by Geoff Lemon on Ellyse Perry and her reinvention. Thank me later for it. Don't forget to tune in to the grand finale on Australia Day. Both sides have a week off, not sure if they'd really want that with so much excitement around. Thanks for joining us, cheers.
Ellyse Perry is the Player of the Match. "It's hard to take you through anything at the moment, phenomenal team effort to win the game, win crucial moments. We've focused on for four years, to build this kind of resilience to step up when it counts. Dane van Niekerk was phenomenal with the bat.
Sixers were in all sorts of trouble, but were bailed out by an unbeaten 98-run stand to lift them to a par score. On a surface where there was turn and grip, they were always going to be in with a chance if they played their cards right. Perry's captaincy was spot on, her bowling changes tactical. Yet. it may have not been enough but for that stupendous effort off the final delivery, right at the ropes to push the ball back into the field of play, followed by a flat throw that was relayed onto the stumps at the bowler's end by Alyssa Healy. Nerveless under pressure. There's a reason why Australia are the T20 World Champions. Such depth, the ability to deliver with pin-point precision under pressure. What a game, what a tournament.
Both the losing semifinalists - Sydney Thunder and Melbourne Renegades - can look back and reflect on a superb campaign. A story of being so-near-yet-so-far.
Healy and Perry, Australia's super stars, will as expectedly come out to try and polish these runs.
keeper is standing up to the stumps. Moly Strano with her offspin, so it's a brave call.
