Perth Scorchers beat Sydney Sixers by 5 wickets
Right then! That is all we have from this game. The action in the BBL continues on Manic Monday, the 10th of December as we have two games lined up for you. In the first match, Hobart Hurricanes take on Sydney Thunder and that one will begin at 8:40 am IST (3:10 am GMT). In the second match, Melbourne Stars will face Adelaide Strikers which will begin at 1:45 pm IST (8:15 am GMT). The Stars are welcoming as many as 9 PLAYERS back from Covid isolation, so they would be hoping to reverse their fortunes. The coverage for both matches will begin a lot sooner. Do join us then. Cheers!
Ashton Turner is the Player of the Match. He says, they knew it would be a tricky chase. Adds that they gave away a few extra runs with the ball in the end. Mentions, the Sixers have beaten them in similar condition in the past and that has helped the players to learn of these guys and he is very happy with the way his bowlers reacted to the situation. Mentions, they are playing good cricket and hopes to continue the same.
... Presentation time ...
The score put on by the Sixers was certainly a bit below par but after the start Ben Dwarshuis gave them with the ball, they must have thought that they can win it. Shadab Khan then came in and got a wicket as well but after that, the Sixers failed to build up any sort of pressure as Hardie was allowed to get Turner back on strike without having to take a risk and that is where the Sixers lost the match. Turner smashed the bowlers to all parts of the ground but it was Dwarshuis again who created an opportunity on the first ball of the Power Surge. Hughes spilled the catch and after that, the Sixers just couldn't recover. They did pick up a couple of wickets at the death but the match had already been lost.
No Colin Munro, no problem. The skipper, Ashton Turner really came to the party tonight to lead a depleted Scorchers team to a fine victory here. The top order failed to give their team a strong start as Ben Dwarshuis knocked over Patterson and Bancroft on consecutive deliveries. They lost Evans as well but then came a mammoth 91-run stand between the skipper and Hardie in which the former did the bulk of the scoring. Turner did fall towards the end and so did Hardie with just 8 runs needed to win. It was veteran, Chris Sabburg who was on debut tonight for the Scorchers who hit the winning runs. Perth Scorchers stay firmly in top spot.
Perth Scorchers with yet another cruising victory and they have done the double over arch-rivals Sydney Sixers, keeping them rooted in third place. Even though it got a bit nervy in the end, Chris Sabburg kept his cool and saw his side home. Great performance overall.

Jackson Bird To Laurie Evans
FOUR! Uppish but safe! Bird pitches it a bit further up and Laurie Evans slashes hard at it. The ball flies off his bat and goes past the diving fielder at point. The ball races away into the fence and that will ease Evans' nerves a bit.

Ben Dwarshuis To Cameron Bancroft OUT!
OUT! Chopped on! Ben Dwarshuis is on a roll here! Dwarshius hits the length hard, around off stump and angles it across the right-hander. Cameron Bancroft looks to cut close to his body and pays the price. The ball comes off the inside edge and goes back to hit the off stump. Bancroft is out early and the Sixers right on top of proceedings. Ben Dwarshuis will be on a hat-trick whenever he comes on to bowl again.
Laurie Evans is the new man in.

Ben Dwarshuis To Kurtis Patterson OUT!
OUT! TAKEN! Ben Dwarshuis draws first blood and Sydney Sixers are right back in the contest now. Slightly short of a length, around off. Kurtis Patterson looks to repeat the trick from the previous over as he hangs back and goes for the cracking pull shot. This time there's a bit of an extra pace behind the ball and Patterson is late in his shot. The ball comes off the top edge and balloons over mid-wicket. Dan Christian paddles back and takes a fine catch.

In the air, but safe! Fullish ball, tailing into the pads. Bancroft tries to lift it over mid on but gets it off the inner half of the bat. Luckily for him, the ball just about clears mis-wicket and they get a single.

Jackson Bird To Cameron Bancroft
Good-length ball, over middle and moving a bit in the air. Bancroft backs away, looking to run it down past backward point but the ball whizzes past the outside edge.
A bad new for Sydney Sixers. Jordan Silk is sitting out of the game after a hamstring niggle. He is a very important figure in the field, this is a huge blow for the Sixers. Mickey Edwards replaces him on the field and has certainly saved a boundary for his side till now.

WIDE! Bird starts off with an inswinger but it's on the pads and shapes down the leg side. Patterson misses the flick and a wide is called.
