Commentary

That is all from the action here. Time for Sourabh to sign off on behalf of Soumarya, good bye and take care!

Tom Rogers (Melbourne Renegades)- "We weren't happy with how we bowled in the powerplay in the previous game and myself along with Fergus gone back to the drawing board trying to improve. We put the ball in the right areas and had a bit of luck. Tim Seifert pulled off an absolute screamer. Fergus bowled really well and he will get the five wicket haul hopefully soon. "

21:30 Local Time (16:00 IST): Melbourne Renegades thump Hobart Hurricanes by 6 wickets and win with 11 overs remaining

Tim Seifert 37*(19) | Will Sutherland 3/14(3)
Nathan Ellis 35(29) & 2/12(3)

Melbourne Renegades have given the Hobart Hurricanes a proper shellacking and they have finished off the chase in 9 overs to register their first win of the season.

This also means that Hobart Hurricanes have started off their season with a loss for the fourth consecutive season and this time is is not just a loss but a loss that might be equivalent to two with the huge dent to their net run-rate

Chasing a paltry 75, JFM started the innings with a first-ball four. He fell soon after but then Tim Seifert walked in and took apart the bowling in the powerplay as the Renegades raced to fifty in 4 overs.

The going got slow after that as Nathan Ellis came into the attack and he continued his good outing with a couple of wickets to go with his 35 with the bat but that was never going to be enough for the Hurricanes.

Eventually, the winning runs were hit off the final ball of the 9th over to close a lop-sided contest if there was ever one

8.5 Nathan Ellis to Mackenzie Harvey, FOURRRR!!!! JOB DONE AND THE MELBOURNE RENEGADES WIN BY 6 WICKETS WITH 67 BALLS TO SPARE! It was short and around the middle stump line. Harvey picked up the length and heaved it away behind square on the on side. It travelled like a bullet through the deep square leg region for a boundary.

8.4 Nathan Ellis to Mackenzie Harvey, too full and right into the block hole outside off stump. Harvey digs it out much to the angst of the crowd who want the game to over quickly.

8.3 Nathan Ellis to Mackenzie Harvey, back of a good length and around the line of off stump. It was pace off again and Harvey slashed hard at it. He didn't get bat on ball.

8.2 Nathan Ellis to Mackenzie Harvey, SCORES LEVEL!! It was full and around the middle stump line. Harvey drives it past the mid off region and picks up a couple of runs.

8.2 Nathan Ellis to Tim Seifert, pace off and bowled at the stumps at 100 kmph. Seifert flicks it away through the square leg region for a single.

8.1 Nathan Ellis to Mackenzie Harvey, short and outside the line of off stump. Harvey pulls it away through the deep square leg for a single.

The going has been slow in the last couple of overs with some wickets being lost but Renegades are now just one blow away from a thumping victory

7.6 Riley Meredith to Tim Seifert, pace off and short outside off stump. Seifert tries to swat it away over extra cover but gets an under edge on it. No run.

7.5 Riley Meredith to Mackenzie Harvey, pitched up and wide outside off stump. Harvey backs away and slaps it past the backward point region for a single.

7.4 Riley Meredith to Mackenzie Harvey, short of a good length and outside off stump. Harvey punches it through the point region and picks up a couple of runs.

7.3 Riley Meredith to Mackenzie Harvey, short and around the line of off stump. Harvey hangs back and keeps it out. No run.

Mackenzie Harvey, LHB, is the new batter

7.2 Riley Meredith to Laurie Evans, back of a good length and around the line of middle stump. Evans doesn't get bat on ball as he tries to punch it towards cover.

Ellis feels that there was a noise and he reviews. Ultra edge shows that there is a spike as the ball was next to the bat. The decision will be reversed and the Renegades have lost their fourth wicket now.

Laurie Evans c Ben McDermott b Riley Meredith 7(5b, 0x4, 1x6).

7.1 Riley Meredith to Laurie Evans, SIXXX!!! FLAT!!! It was pitched up and on the pads from Meredith. Evans picked up the length and just whipped it away over the deep square leg region for a MAXIMUM.
