Scorer: Binoy George | Commentator: @PeterDellaPenna

It's after midnight now on the east coast of Australia. For those who were able to stay awake, what a finish that was. Hughes may have missed out on a ton but his knock erases the first inning brilliance from Pooran and Maxwell. Rough for Maxwell to go from hero (with the bat) to goat (with the ball). Stars were ahead seemingly the whole chase but just fumbled it away at the end. Hope you enjoyed all of the drama. Come back tomorrow for more BBL action. That's it for now though. Take care!

Man of the Match Daniel Hughes: "We sort of knew that if we took it deep and kept it to 20 off the last two, anything could happen. We said if they could get 190, so could we. We didn't bowl well but when we were in the sheds, we said it's a nice wicket, play good shots and anything could happen. We probably carried on a little too much there but it's a great group of guys and we enjoy each other's success."

Maxwell to O'Keefe, 4 leg byes, terrible ball, O'Keefe fans on it but they get four runs regardless to win a thriller! Thigh high full toss on middle stump, O'Keefe swings wildly over the top of it but it clips the thigh to go past the keeper and beats short third man as well up in the ring to race away to the rope! Sixers win by one wicket with a ball to spare!

Sandhu enters off strike.

Maxwell to Hughes, OUT, Hughes goes for glory trying to end the match and bring up a century with one blow, but he picks out deep midwicket! Cartwright has been a magnet for the ball in the field and claims this one calmly two yards inside the rope at head height. It was a half-volley on the legs, in the slot to crack over the ropes but he just dragged it too flat, didn't get the elevation.

Coulter-Nile is actually still off the field.

Maxwell to Hughes, SIX, full toss at waist height, heaves a pull high to deep backward square, the same fielder Larkin tries to knock it back in but fails to do so and it clears the rope for a maximum.

Maxwell to Hughes, FOUR, darted flatter on the legs, flicks this flat to deep backward square, Nick Larkin the fielder charges forward to try to catch this but it short hops him then caroms off the legs to the rope. At worst should've been a single.

Maxwell to Hughes, SIX, flighted full on the legs, backs away and creams this flat over long-on.

Captain Maxwell takes the ball in hand to bowl the final six. Coulter-Nile spent some time off the field, too much time in fact, and didn't meet the requirement to be eligible to bowl this over.

END OF OVER:
19 | 3 Runs 2 Wkts | SS: 174/8 (20 runs required from 6 balls, RR: 9.15, RRR: 20.00)

  • Daniel Hughes80 (47b)
  • Liam Hatcher4-0-33-3
  • Adam Zampa4-0-47-2

Hatcher missed his length on the first five balls but wasn't punished one bit. Finally gets it right last ball though to claim another wicket. Not the prettiest over to the eye but efficient on paper. Leaves the Sixers with 20 to get off the final frame.
