8.56pm What a turnaround! After a cracking opening partnership between Short and Wade for 145 in under 15 overs, the Sixers have found their way back with eight wickets for just 43 runs. Looking set for 200 at one point of time, the Hurricanes have been restricted to 188. Sean Abbott was the best bowler for the Sixers; he started very well with the new ball and then returned to remove the two openers and finish with 2-32 after bowling 10 dot balls. Nobody could score more than 11 in that Hurricanes collapse, which will disappoint them. I'll be back soon with the chase
Andy: "Suprised Christian didn't get the last over, he was bowling well to the in-form openers"
Abhijato: "Well, that's one way to bat in the death overs ..." Someone called them RCB, right?

22 runs and three wickets from the last two overs. Which way will the last over go?
Abhijato: "So all that Short needed to get back his form was his partner-in-crime Wade! xD"
David the X-factor on strike
Are the Hurricanes crumbling after that opening stand? Nathan Ellis at No. 7

Aryan: "@Mark, do you mean to say the Hurricanes are the RCB of the BBL?" Here comes the RCB jokes
The physio is out to check on Malan as per protocols
Rohith: "This will be an interesting dilemma. Where will Aus play Wade? Against SA in tests or NZ in T20Is."
