In the final match of the KFC T20 Big Bash League, Perth Scorchers beat Sydney Sixers off the final ball in Canberra. Perth Scorchers have made it back-to-back triumphs in the KFC T20 Big Bash League in the most thrilling circumstances in Canberra, chasing down 148 against a valiant Sydney Sixers with four wickets in hand off the final ball of the match.
A match that ebbed and flowed from the outset seemed destined to come down to the final over – fittingly bowled by retiring superstar Brett Lee, who claimed two wickets to be on a hat-trick with the final delivery of his career.
But it wasn't to be, as Yasir Arafat dug out the yorker and took off for what seemed a suicidal single, only for the Sixers to miss a run-out opportunity and the Scorchers scrambled home to claim the title for the second time.
