8.48 pm 17-run final over, including a costly no ball that negated a wicket, may have just given the Strikers a fighting chance. Carey's innings was immense in the middle. They need a win to have any chance of making the playoffs. A Renegades victory will clinch a playoff spot for them. Who will prevail in the chase? Stay with us for the reply when Alan Gardner takes over the central commentary position.

Sutherland to Nielsen, 1 no ball, goes for slower ball yorker but misses the length horribly. Winds up being a chest high full toss pulled to Fawad at deep fine leg. Fawad takes a chest high catch and flings the ball back to the keeper in quick time because it's quite clear this is a no ball on height.

Richardson to Boyce, OUT, missed runout! At one end but they convert a second chance at the non-striker's end! Back of a length on fifth stump, flicked to backward point and initially sets off before being sent back. The throw at the striker's end misses after he'd given up. Once the throw misses, they set off for a single but an incredibly alert backup at deep midwicket from Wells results in a rocket to the non-striker's stumps that skims the top of the bails with Nielsen a few inches short. The third umpire is taking an eternity over concerns that Richardson standing over the stumps may have dislodged a bail with his hand before the ball hit the stumps. The decision comes back as out after three minutes of our lives we'll never get back.
