- BATSMENRB4s6sSR8.6 Roy's grind finally ends. Length ball wide outside off, tries to muscle this over mid-off but it comes off more of the toe of the bat and flutters wide of Finch on the ring, jogs to his left and takes a simple catch. 56/25.5 lovely change of pace defeats Livingstone's charge! Noor slowed this up plenty through the air and dragged the length back sensing Livingstone coming down the track, the Englishman continues with the shot anyway as this is also bowled wider outside off, nowhere close to making contact with a leg side swipe, simple stumping for Harper. Happy birthday Noor Ahmad! 41/119.1 Prestwidge finally breaks the century stand! Half-volley wide on sixth stump, Munro tries to heave this offcutter over midwicket and done in by lack of pace slicing an edge to the keeper. 173/3Extras7 (lb 3, nb 3, w 1)TOTAL185/3 (20 Overs, RR: 9.25)Fall of wickets: 1-41 (Liam Livingstone, 5.5 ov), 2-56 (Jason Roy, 8.6 ov), 3-173 (Colin Munro, 19.1 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR0.2 chop on! Jhye Richardson adjusts his length short and drags it a fraction wider too as Harper gets on his toes trying to guide this through point but he's cramped for room and instead drags this back onto leg stump. 4/14.4 Roy with a nominee for catch of the tourney at backward point! Short and wide, there to crank behind point for a boundary, Marsh makes no effort to keep this cut down and Roy flies to his left to intercept this with a leaping effort at chest height. Almost identical to the Harvey catch a few days ago in the same position. Some guns fielding at backward point in the BBL! 34/41.6 flicks the drive back onto the stumps! Full on the stumps, Marsh drills a straight drive back at the bowler who reaches his left hand down low in his follow-through and gets his index finger on it to ricochet onto the non-striker's stumps. Finch walks off in a huff after being stranded a few yards out at the non-striker's end. 15/23.2 keeping the slip in pays off! Lovely delivery back of a length slanted across fourth stump, Webster stuck on the crease playing a back foot punch well away from his body, thick edge carries to slip at thigh height. 26/36.5 Nabi's miserable day comes to an anticlimactic end at deep square leg. Short ball on the stumps, lazy pull shot, no attempt to keep this down and didn't really go hard enough trying to clear the rope either. Basic catching practice for Livingstone 10 yards in from the rope. 46/65.3 another wicket tumbles. Length ball on the stumps, Rossouw takes a step down the track trying to heave Tye over mid-on who was up in the ring, teased into throwing away his wicket as he can't clear the man and skies it straight up, Hardie backpedals from the circle to claim this. 41/511.5 Livingstone finally buys his wicket! Another ball floated full on middle, skied slog straight down the ground again, got plenty of height but just short of the distance at long-on. Behrendorff towering at long-on swivels his hips to cushion the catching angle taking this reaching across his body, almost over the shoulder, at chest height a yard inside the rope. 88/98.2 runout takes things from bad to worse for the Renegades. Quicker and flatter on off, cuts this to backward point for a suicide run. Relay to Inglis at the striker's end is rushed and very high but still plenty of time for him to make an athletic spin to whip off the bails as Richardson's dive is inches short. 59/78.5 my goodness this is shockingly poor from the Renegades. Lalor charges Fawad third ball trying to clear mid-off, doesn't get to the pitch of this dragged wider on sixth stump, slices this attempted drive to short third man. Simple catch on the ring at head height for a third-ball duck. 59/812.5 that's it! Zips in a quicker legbreak on fourth stump, backs away to punch through extra cover, thin edge snapped up behind the stumps. All out for 89. Yikes. Scorchers more than double up the Renegades in a 96-run win. 89/10Extras7 (lb 4, w 3)TOTAL89 all out (12.5 Overs, RR: 6.93)Fall of wickets: 1-4 (Sam Harper, 0.2 ov), 2-15 (Aaron Finch, 1.6 ov), 3-26 (Beau Webster, 3.2 ov), 4-34 (Shaun Marsh, 4.4 ov), 5-41 (Rilee Rossouw, 5.3 ov), 6-46 (Mohammad Nabi, 6.5 ov), 7-59 (Kane Richardson, 8.2 ov), 8-59 (Josh Lalor, 8.5 ov), 9-88 (Jack Prestwidge, 11.5 ov), 10-89 (Peter Hatzoglou, 12.5 ov)
