10.45 pm That's all from the Melbourne Derby from the Docklands Stadium. The win for the Stars mean that they still have a mathematical chance of qualifying into the semi-finals, but it's still very unlikely. The Renegades, however, have not done themselves any favour by losing against the bottom-ranked team today. With Finch and White out for national duty, the next few matches will be crucial for them. That's all from the BBL today, hope you enjoyed ESPNcricinfo's coverage of the 26th match. On behalf of Varun Shetty, it's good bye from Sreshth!

the extra ball goes for a six! Full toss outside off and it's smacked over the non-striker's head. Maxwell looks to get underneath it at long on, but the ball sails over!

17.5
Worrall to Wildermuth, no run

another yorker from Worrall! Full outside off, and it's dug away back to the bowler. Takes an awkward bounce off the pitch, but Worrall does well on his follow through to stop the ball from going past him

17.4
1
Worrall to Kane Richardson, 1 run

great bowling from Worrall today. Another gem outside off that can't be put away. Full ball that Richardson can't get under, takes the outside edge to short third man

17.3
1
Worrall to Wildermuth, 1 run

drilled full on off stump, tries to muscled this away but inside edges the shot instead. Ricochets onto his boots, allowing the batsmen to scamper through for the run

full and wide outside off, driven off the bat's toe end to deep point

17.1
W
Worrall to Webster, OUT

misses the paddle sweep, and it cannons into middle stump! Full on off stump, and Webster walked across too much to the off side. Tries to paddle this fine down the leg side, but a feather touch takes it onto his stumps instead. The innovation does not play off

Beau Webster b Worrall 9 (10b 0x4 0x6) SR: 90

Renegades need 43 from three overs. Here's Worrall for his third over.
