Scorer: Thilak R Gowda
That's what you call a complete show. Good batting display, discipline bowling and well backed by the fielders.Sydney Sixers outplayed strikers in all aspects of the game to clinch a good win. Lumb played a crucial knock whacking 5 huge hits and he has been adjudged Man of the match.
david: "Glad to see that the Sixers were not robbed by three incompetent decisions. The wide off the pads that added 3 to the strikers score. The Henriques lbw that wasn't hitting a fourth stump. And the Tait sky scraping wide well outside off that wasn't called."
