Hobart Hurricanes win by four runs and that was some performance by Nathan Ellis to close that out in the final over after going for 20 in the 18th. A very good T20 match. The Renegades gave it a terrific shake and it looked like they would win when Nabi was going. For the Hurricanes it keeps their season alive, they can still squeeze into fifth spot. A good night for their young players with Mac Wright playing a key innings after Wade had blazed away. Phew, that was fun.

Mac Wright is Player of the Match: "What a finish, great finish from Nathan. It was a really good game. He [Nabi] was smashing them. I was pretty nervous, it was by first catch, too, and I lost it in the lights."

I'll wrap things up for there for tonight. We'll have Strikers v Stars tomorrow so see you for that. Thanks for joining us.
