8.44 pm Steven Smith scores the first century in the history of the Sixers franchise. But was it enough? Had he not been runout, he could have gotten to 130 or 140, if not 150. The ending to the innings, especially the final over, looked a little underwhelming. On a tiny ground, this total can be chased. Strikers still very much in this contest. Stay with us for the start of the reply coming up shortly.
