Welcome back. There was movement on offer with the new ball which resulted in the Sixers losing both their openers inside the powerplay. The hosts will hope that the ball behaves the same way. In walk the Thunder openers and the fireworks go off as the Sixers make their way out to the middle.
20:46 Local Time, 09:46 GMT, 15:16 IST: The Sydney Sixers have finished with 151, it could be a moderate score, but this is a knockout game and as such runs on the board could be crucial. On first look, this seems to be a new-ball pitch, the hosts stuttered and couldn't really get going, they kept losing wickets as well and at 87 for 5, they had slipped into big trouble. Jordan Silk held one end up and anchored the innings with a 30-ball 43*, Ben Dwarshius provided the big-hitting with a 20-ball 30, but the eventual score of 151 could be at least 10 short of a par score on this surface. Thunder assessed the conditions well, they used a lot of spin and the pacers used the variations well. They'll back themselves to chase down 152, but Sixers do have the wood over them and will come out firing with the ball. Should be a feisty chase and we'll be right back..
