Melbourne Stars were in with a chance till Hussey was in the middle. It was his run-out that changed the scales in this match. Stars need some contributions from their captain in the middle order. Sydney Sixers get into the top half of the points table with this win. Bravo is man of the match for his half-century earlier in the evening. Join us tomorrow for the match between Adelaide Strikers and Hobart Hurricanes. Till then, it's a good night from all of us here
