That was some game at the SCG! An absolute blockbuster from start to finish. Centuries from the two veterans, Steve Smith and David Warner, lit up the night, with Smith in particular setting the ground on fire, including a monster 107-metre biggie. The Sixers hold their nerve to seal the win and move up to fourth spot on the table. It now sets up a virtual knockout clash against the Brisbane Heat on Sunday, with the winner booking a place in the playoffs.

Steve Smith (Player of the Match): "It was a nice wicket. Chasing 190, we had to get off to a nice start. Babar and I got off to a good start. Got in the Surge and got some away.
I launched it and I probably think it went 110m. It was a bit shorter side and the wind going that way. The seamers were the right match-ups and I thought to launch a few.
We spoke at the 10-over mark. They said take the Surge straightaway. I said nah, I'll take it after one over because I want to hit it at the short side. Happy to score 30 in that over.
A must-win game for us. Looking forward to going down there and putting on a show."
