Pace on, hammered through the square leg region, length ball on the stumps, moves towards the line of the ball and swings it away, no chance for the deep mid wicket fielder

We're done for the day. On behalf of Sudeep and myself, I'm signing off.
Player of the Match Tom Rogers: "The other night we weren't too happy with how we executed it (Powerplay), so Fergus and I went back to the drawing board and really wanted to make an impression tonight. Great effort for the team to put the best foot forward and hopefully get the boys a win. And the boys in the middle took care of it. I think we put the ball in pretty good areas. A little bit of luckier times as well. I think that left-side catch from Seifert was an absolute Screamer! (Hattrick Chance) No, Obviously you want to tick that box off, right? I don't think it's coming from me. But I reckon Fergus got one in it. And it will be a hell of a celebration when he does."
Mustafa Moudi: "The entire Feedback was all about Ponting. He was be glad with such a tribute from Cricinfo on his 50th Birthday !!" Punter is undoubtedly having a great time celebrating his birthday with his family. If he has time, he will check the cricinfo communications and feel delighted.
Renegades, however, was cruising towards victory. How quickly they could seal the match was the question. They accomplished it with 66 balls left. Despite losing JFM's wicket early on, the Renegades had no more trouble chasing the 75-run target. Seifert scored 37 runs off of 19 balls to take the lead in the batting lineup. In addition to taking two wickets and being economical, Nathan Ellis was outstanding with the bowl in hand. However, the Hurricanes bowling unit was unable to defend the target because it was far too low.
Melbourne Renegades won the match by 6 wickets

Fuller length on the stumps, forces it away through the square leg area for a single
Jamie: "Punter definitely has one of the best cricket brains around. In the Thunder game the other day on comms he said before Warner's first ball that the reverse sweep looked to be on. First ball and he nailed the reverse for 4. Bet he was pleased with himself after that. "

NicF: "I don't understand why Ellis didn't get the ball immediately, his skillset exactly matches the balls that got wickets in the first innings. Every Cane bowler that's bowled on pace has been smashed, they've not bowled anywhere enough off pace."

Mustafa Moudi: "Jagannadh: Of Course I am enjoying it the most because by the time our discussion is going on, the entire match is about to be over. Let be reiterate my point for the Final Time (because the match will be over soon). To be the Greatest Cricketer, one must excel in multiple fields. He might not be the Best Batsman but he is indeed the Best Cricketer of Australia !!"

Meredith to Evans, OUT
Short of a length ball, moves away to make room, tries to play through backward point, beaten by the extra bounce off the pitch. Half-hearted appeal from the fielding side, opts to review the decision. Wait a second! Ultra edge confirms a spike as the ball passes the outside edge of Evans. Good awareness from McDermott behind the stumps to convince the skipper for the review.

Meredith to Evans, SIX runs
Lovely piece of timing! Full in the slot on the pads, uses the pace of the ball and flicks it well over the square leg fence
Ryan: "Not Rob here, but Ponting has the best cricket brain going around, sure he had amazing players in his team, but his field placements, tactics against players and use of those superstars certainly helped win games, or dig them out of holes."
