From tonight, the Big Bash gets serious.
The Melbourne Renegades have the chance to draw level with the Melbourne Stars on the points table with a match in hand after contrasting weeks for the two Victorian franchises.
The Renegades backed up their derby win at the MCG with a last-ball win over the Perth Scorchers while the Sixers slumped to their third-straight loss with a below-par performance against the Sydney Sixers at the MCG on Thursday night.
Welcome to tonight’s coverage of the BBL. It’s where you can get some light entertainment after a couple of tough days for the state and our thoughts are with those who are impacted by the fires.
We are here for some cricket with the season on the line for both teams. Bring it on.
