The Sixers' 27-run victory at the Sydney Cricket Ground gives them a third title, level with the Scorchers.īetween them, the Sixers and the Scorchers have won six of the 10 editions on the men's BBL, with both teams beating each other in two finals.Īfter these sides finished in the top two in the league table, the Sixers defeated the Scorchers in the play-offs to advance directly to the final. On behalf of Andrew McGlashan, Alex Malcolm and Tristan Lavelette on site in Australia and everyone else who has been a part of the commentary and scoring team throughout the last two months, I'm Peter Della Penna.Though his England team-mate Liam Livingstone made 45, the Scorchers were rarely in the chase, ending on 161-9. Thanks to everyone who has stuck with our coverage through thick and thin. We know that everyone has made sacrifices but we're so appreciative that everyone was able to come together, we were able to make this tournament happen and get to the end of it." To our squad, players and coaching staff, it's been a long time on the road and I couldn't be prouder of our efforts. We weren't able to be in Perth and we weren't able to play in front of our home fans and know that our sponsors have missed out on a lot of opportunities so we're very appreciative of your support. From the outside looking in it looks like you have an amazing culture.
#Scorchers movie one through six how to#
You've taught us how to play on wickets like this and you deserve all of the success that you've had. The Sydney Sixers have been the best side for the last couple of years. But we're very fortunate that all of the teams have been so competitive this year. Scorchers captain Ashton Turner: "I think any captain from all eight teams could talk about adversity and obstacles that we've had to overcome to get to the end of this tournament and we feel no different. Obviously Perth was too good for us tonight and they were too good for us a few times this year." Sixers captain Moises Henriques: "It seems like we do this quite often. I'm just really glad we got over the line today and glad I could contribute." They've sacrificed a lot, not being able to get home. Player of the Final is Laurie Evans: "What can I say? The guys deserve this.
They were a worthy opponent for us to beat today." Huge credit to them for making the final. They've had a rough roll of the dice throughout the tournament. That's why we have such a strong team because we could have our backs up against the wall but we keep fighting, keep scrapping. But that's the belief we have in this group. I wasted so much nervous energy on the bench it was ridiculous. One home game, six or seven weeks straight on the road. This is probably the best win we've ever had. I can't be prouder of these bunch of boys. The players wives and partners and kids are now pouring onto the field, kisses and hugs all around.Īndrew Tye: "It's just unbelievable, overwhelming joy. Tremendous season for them and deserved champions.
They haven't been home since December 8 due to Covid restrictions in Western Australia but they still dominated the regular season, finishing comfortably clear of the rest of the field at the top of the table and then come out on top of the Sixers twice in the playoffs, first in a preliminary final and then again in the rematch.
10.55 pm So the road warriors get revenge in a rematch of last year's final when they came out on the losing end.
