That's it from me - James Buckley will have a full match report shortly as the Sixers go equal first. The Renegades remain outside the four with that loss, and they've got work to do. See you next time.
All over!
You don't see that every day - a game ending with the batting team winning as a fielder in the deep makes the catch. Haddin skies on to long on, and by the time the man on the ropes makes the grab and throws it back in, they've run two and the match is finished. Superb last over from Haddin, he steered them home in what ended up being a far closer finish than I thought it would be.
Pattinson bowls a no ball!
Dear oh dear. Haddin pulls the next one away for two, and now it's three from three...or it would have been, but it's a front foot no ball and now they'll get a free hit to boot. It's all over.
Dug in short, nearly a chance of a catch at gully as Haddin leaned back and cut it away but it's just over the head of a diving Cameron White. Five needed to win off four balls.
Good over from Perera - just seven from it. The Sixers will need nine from the final over! Pattinson to bowl..
Back to topThe boundaries have dried up but they're just keeping the scoreboard ticking along with some singles. They need 16 from the last two overs - a couple of dot balls could change everything though!
Great catch by Ferguson!
Henriques just misses this one - it goes a mile in the air, I thought it was going to be six for a moment but it holds up just short of the rope and Ferguson came around beautifully to take that over his head in the wet.
Glorious cover drive from Haddin - they've nearly got the required run rate down to under six.
That's smoked by Henriques - slog sweep from Henriques and the Sixers are in control here.
Maddinson is stumped!
Charges down the wicket but Narine sees him coming and pitches it up - easy stumping for Nevill, who is back in the game.
Back to topBig from Maddinson - he guides that Tremain delivery over the fine leg fence with ease. The rain has come back too, but the Sixers are well ahead of the par score.
And that's a good shot to finish the over - driven hard by Henriques just behind point and it beats the fielder and runs away to the ropes.
Triple figures for the Sixers, with one ball to go in the 12th over. They need 71 from 49 to win.

Well, the longest over of this year's Big Bash (I assume) is finally over, and the Sixers reach the halfway point of the innings needing 85 runs to win with plenty of wickets left.
Back to topAnd after all that, the first ball back is a wicket!
Lumb charges down the pitch to Perera's ball, only gets an outside edge and it's well caught by a diving Narine at gully.

Scratch that, it looks like he's going off for a concussion Test. Aaron Finch will don the gloves.
Peter Nevill has copped an errant ball to the forehead but I think he'll be ok to continue - an attempted run out bounced short of the stumps and then skipped up off the pitch before he could react.
It's starting to look a bit ominous in the sky over the SCG - for the record, the Sixers are currently ahead of the DLS par score.
