Get Ball by Ball Commentary of Melbourne Renegades vs Sydney Sixers, Big Bash League 2020, 18th Match

What a great game of cricket. The Sixers go to the top of the BBL table with their 4th win of the season. The Renegades have now lost four in a row.

Thanks for your company tonight from the Gold Coast.

Sixers win by two wickets thanks to Jason Holder. He is rightly Man of the Match for his superb innings. Two last over victories in a row. Holder takes 16 off the last with a ball to spare. Sutherland got those last two overs horribly wrong.

Ashwin: "Jason Holder- Remember the name"

19.5

Sutherland to Holder, SIX, lofted into the stands at long off! Holder pulls it off! Sixers steal another one! Sutherland went full and wide again and it was a half volley, Holder was waiting and with the most beautiful swing of the bat he lofted it high and handsome into the stands

He can't go full and wide again now. Finch and Sutherland change the field. Mid off goes back. Cover is up

19.4

Sutherland to Holder, FOUR, over mid off again! Wide low full toss, same shot from Holder, he reaches out with one hand and miscues it over mid off and it runs away for four!

19.3

Sutherland to Holder, FOUR, lofted over straight mid off! Wide and full again with mid off up, he reached out and got it off the toe of the bat but got enough of it!

19.2

Sutherland to Holder, 2 runs, another wide yorker, he carves it to deep cover-point, they try for two, Rossouw just needed to deliver a decent throw but it was wide and Holder got home! He should have been run out by miles!

19.1

Sutherland to Holder, no run, Holder steps outside off, he fires a wide yorker and Holder tries to run to third man and missed! Well bowled.

Sutherland entrusted with the last. 16 to win. 15 for a Super Over

END OF OVER:
19 | 5 Runs 2 Wkts | SS: 153/8 (16 runs required from 6 balls, RR: 8.05, RRR: 16.00)

18.6

Richardson to Holder, 1 run, mistimed pull shot flies high towards deep midwicket but falls just short! 140kph short ball got big on him, he completely mis hit it and fortunately it landed short of Harvey running in

18.5

Richardson to Dwarshuis, OUT, caught at deep backward point! Short and angled across him, he slashed it off a thick outside edge and it flew straight to the well positioned Rossouw and he didn't juggle this one. Comfortable catch

BJ Dwarshuis c Rossouw b Richardson 2 (2b 0x4 0x6) SR: 100.00

18.4

Richardson to Dwarshuis, 2 runs, 137kph, length ball, he backs away and heaves it long on and they run two! The fielder couldn't get the throw in in time

Rhys Duncan: "Here's the law:A delivery is a no ball if it pitches wholly or partially off the pitch as defined in Law 6.1 (Area of pitch) before it reaches the line of the striker's wicketTherefore, first one was a wide, second one was a no ball" I'll back you in Rhys

18.3

Richardson to Holder, 1 run, back of a length, outside off, he lets it come and runs it to short third man

18.2

Richardson to Brathwaite, OUT, towering sky ball caught by Finch at mid off! Well bowled from Richardson. Banged in back of a length again, Brathwaite tried to launch down the ground, he sliced the ball high towards mid off, Finch camped under it and took the catch

CR Brathwaite c Finch b Richardson 4 (4b 1x4 0x6) SR: 100.00

They check upstairs but he is fine

18.1

Richardson to Holder, 1 run, 136kph, banged in back of a length, he mistimes a pull forward of square, Brathwaite wants two but is rightly sent back and he just gets home

Richardson

END OF OVER:
18 | 12 Runs 1 Wkt | SS: 148/6 (21 runs required from 12 balls, RR: 8.22, RRR: 10.50)

Will Sutherland3-0-41-1
Peter Hatzoglou4-0-37-1

Spintowin: "Not sure I understand the captaincy - Sutherland/Evans getting through this many overs with Nabi ending 2 for 11 from his two?!" Finch was worried about Nabi to all the right handers with a short midwicket boundary. But I'm sure he's regretting it

17.6

Sutherland to Brathwaite, no run, slower ball bouncer outside off, Brathwaite bailed out of the shot thinking it was a wide for height but it wasn't! Dot ball

Free hit

17.6

1nb

Sutherland to Brathwaite, 1 no ball, slower ball gone wrong! It slipped out and missed the cut strip! It was so wide it is a no ball! He should have been penalised for that earlier in the over but he rightly is now

17.5

Sutherland to Brathwaite, FOUR, drilled over cover! Incredible shot! Full and fired into off, almost a yorker, he cleared the front leg and crunched it flat over cover. Outrageous power first ball

Holder and Brathwaite

17.4

Sutherland to Silk, OUT, Rossouw takes a diving juggler! Pure good fortune! Amazing catch! Silk sliced a wide slower ball high to deep point, Rossouw runs in and dives full stretch forward, it bounces off his hands, hits his face, lands back on his forearm and rolls up to his elbow and he cradled it against his body! It never touched the ground. What a catch!

JC Silk c Rossouw b Sutherland 31 (23b 4x4 0x6) SR: 134.78

17.3

Sutherland to Silk, no run, good length slower ball cutter, 109kph, Silk swings and misses. Well bowled

17.3

Sutherland to Silk, 1 wide, attempted wide yorker slower ball and it's too wide again!

17.2

Sutherland to Silk, FOUR, carved over mid off! He didn't middle it but it was in the slot and he got enough over it to get over mid off and run away to the rope

It perhaps should have been a no ball for not landing on the pitch

17.2

Sutherland to Silk, 1 wide, sprayed way wide of off attempting a wide yorker and it's nearly landed off the pitch!

17.1

Sutherland to Holder, 1 run, 130kph, wide yorker, he reaches out and crunches a square drive to deep point

Sutherland on

END OF OVER:
17 | 14 Runs | SS: 136/5 (33 runs required from 18 balls, RR: 8.00, RRR: 11.00)

16.6

Hatzoglou to Holder, 1 run, length ball, 101kph, he heaves this away to deep midwicket

16.5

Hatzoglou to Holder, FOUR, drilled straight of long on! What power! Quicker and fuller, he sat back and with brute strength just muscled it straight of long on and Sutherland couldn't stop it

16.4

Hatzoglou to Holder, SIX, huge hit over long on to the top deck! A step hit in the slot, right in his arc and it was a towering strike. Brilliant from Holder
