Stephen: "Is that the highest T20 score without a 50?" -- Definitely not. I remember Australia's 221 (v England, 2007), Gilchrist top-scored with 48.

Sqteesh: "Is that a bad Captaincy from Finch ? When Hatza bowled a gud 2nd over he took leg-spinner out of the attack and Sutherland bowled well but no 4th over.. bad bad Captaincy in my view ..!!"

7.45pm The Renegades need 210 to win, but that was an entertaining first half. Khawaja-Hales at the top, Davies thereafter, Sams with some big shots, then the flurry of wickets, run-outs and great catches, which was all topped off by the McAndrew cameo.
The last time the Renegades were chasing 200+, they were all out for 60. How will they tackle this total? Join us in 10 minutes for the chase.

Evans to McAndrew, SIX, full on middle, and he clears his front leg to muscle a six over deep midwicket! McAndrew's five-ball cameo of 20. Thunder finish on 209

6
Evans to McAndrew, SIX, full, just outside off, and he steps forward and tonks a six over long on! Richardson looked interested at long on for a brief second, but the ball went over him

Big total for the Thunder, but they perhaps haven't maximised the opportunity their top order provided. One over to go. Can they get 200? Here's Evans

Richardson to Holt, OUT, fullish on leg stump, and he misses the flick. Lbw appeal turned down but they're trying for the single...and Richardson recovers, picks it up, and throws the non-striker's stumps down! A team hat-trick! Richardson's effort for all three though, so perhaps unfair that the hat-trick won't go down as a personal achievement for him

BJ Holt run out 0 (1b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00

on a hattrick

Ahmed Rao: "I think Imad has done a good job considering his first over"

18.4
W
Richardson to Ferguson, OUT, full on off, and he offers the full face of the bat. Lofts it straight, and it's got four written all over it, but Sutherland from long on dives full length to his left, and takes a stunning catch that Ferguson cannot believe has happened. Terrific catch

CJ Ferguson c Sutherland b Richardson 31 (31b 2x4 0x6) SR: 100.00

>Been a good comeback from the Renegades. It will be a big total to chase, but it could've been much worse.

18.3
W
Richardson to Green, OUT, short ball, on off. Tries to pull, but sliced instead and the keeper runs in to complete the catch

CJ Green c †Harper b Richardson 8 (7b 1x4 0x6) SR: 114.28

18.2
4
Richardson to Green, FOUR, full toss on and he clatters a cut in front of square. Dive from Nabi running across from wide long off is not good enough to stop the boundary
18.1
0
Richardson to Green, no run, starts off with the slower ball. Floats and lands on off, and he tees up for the big shot, but through it too early. Through to the keeper

W
Hatzoglou to Ferguson, OUT, full outside off, and turning in. Swept to square leg, and they want the single...but he's sent back by Ferguson. Sharp take from the bowler, and looks like Cutting is out for a diamond duck! Duck off zero balls....yikes!
