Stars vs Sixers, 36th Match at Sydney, Jan 23 2018 - Ball by Ball Commentary
Sixers won by 5 wickets (with 15 balls remaining)
10.45pm The Sydney Sixers finish their season with four successive wins. "Unbelievable run chase," Lyon says. "That's why we got Joe Denly and Maddinson was brilliant. I don't think we bowled very well but hats off to Maxwell. To lose six games on the trot and then winning four is special."
Joe Denly is the Player of the Match for his 72 not out off 45 balls.
jamil: "Currently SS on 4th number in the Points Table :)"
That's a wrap of this game. Goodbye and good night for now
short, wide, outside off, Brathwaite lines it up and clubs it hard but straight into the lap of Maxwell at deep midwicket. Brathwaite nailed it but did not get enough elevation to clear the man in the deep
overpitched and wide outside off, 105ks, Brathwaite waits for the ball to arrive and carves it up and over the covers
short and outside off, swatted to deep midwicket
back of a length, a big swing and a miss outside off
short and aimed at the head, top-edges it over the keeper's head. Bowe runs in from fine leg and loses the ball under the lights. He concedes four with that misjudgement
back of a length on off stump, hard length, flat-batted to mid-off
full-toss down the leg side, wide
Brathwaite
nowhere near short or wide for the cut. Full on off stump, Botha attempts a cut and ends up bottom-edging it back onto the stumps
full-toss outside off, scythed to deep point
really full on middle, squeezed to long-on
Aryam: "I am going to miss the sixers. Wish Braithwaite and Denly came earlier. What a turnaround after the 6 consecutive losses. A possible 4 wins to end the season"
full on middle, shimmies out and drop-kicks it to deep midwicket
