Well we had an one sided match right from the word go. Sixers never looked like reaching it at any stage of the game. Sydney Sixers have themselves to blame, gave away too many runs, gifted 31 extras to the opposition. On the other side Melbourne Stars dominated in every department of the game. GJ Maxwell has been adjudged Man of the Match for his sparkling innings. That's it from here. Do catch us for tomorrows game between Melbourne Renegades and Brisbane Heat at Melbourne. This is Thilak Gowda signing off. Till then take care, cheers!!
