8.38pm So, what a batting performance from the Sixers. Philippe the star with 95 from 57, Silk hardly a slouch with 45 not out from 19. And Christian's 11 from three was very welcome too. Renegades have work to do to maintain their winning start to this year's tournament. Back in a mo to see how they get on.

W
Lalor to Philippe, OUT, wide line, and battered to short cover! Philippe thought it was the money shot, he seemed to have anticipated the line and length, and connected sweetly enough, but Finch was lurking right in harm's way, and ends a tremendous aggressive innings!
