A comfortable 8 wickets victory for the Renegades which was earlier scripted by three quick wickets from James Pattinson on his comeback to the competitive cricket, it was well supported by the other bowlers restricting Thunder to a below par score. Renegades batsmen chases it with an ease. Pattinson is the man of the match, that's all well had for today, do join us tomorrow. Night!
