Thunder finish third on the BBL table and will host the Knockout at the MCG on Sunday. They will play the winner of the Hurricanes Strikers Eliminator on Friday night. The Hurricanes face the Stars in the last game of the home and away season at the MCG as the last game of today's triple header. Thanks for company in this one. What a finish.
7.30pm The Renegades lose another one. Thunder get out of jail and take some winning momentum to the finals. Two nights in a row Renegades throw away the game from winning positions. Finch made 82 from 64 balls but couldn't close it out. Thunder fielded poorly all night until the last over where they were flawless. Gurinder Sandhu holds his nerve with 3 for 33. Gurinder Sandhu "I was just trying to keep it pretty simple and pretty clear."Koshur: "Hello Alex!!I had full faith(that they will mess it up)"

Sandhu to Boyce, OUT, caught at backward point! Jason Sangha takes the catch! Boyce is distraught! Thunder win by one run! Full and wide, it wasn't a great delivery, he just sliced a drive off a thick outside edge straight to Jason Sangha and he pouches it safely
CJ Boyce c JJS Sangha b Sandhu 0 (5m 1b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00
Cameron Boyce on strike! He took 4 wickets in 4 balls and 5 for 21 with the ball. It's been his day. He needs 2 off 1. There's a Thunder team meeting with four men involved. Sandhu to Boyce

Sandhu to Finch, OUT, Sams takes a blinder! Finch holes out! Full in the slot, Finch heaves towards deep midwicket, Sams charges in and dives forward full length and plucks it just above the turf! Wow

Sandhu to Harper, OUT, Sensational from Jason Sangha! Extraordinary run out! Harper drags it towards long on but Jason Sangha dives full length at a close midwicket to stop it cleanly and flick it to Gurinder who takes the bails off and Harper is out by miles. No run and a wicket
SB Harper run out 1 (5m 4b 0x4 0x6) SR: 25.00
