New Delhi: Australia’s Big Bash League, season 13, league stage is all done and dusted, except for the one dead rubber clash between Sydney Thunders and Melbourne Renegades on Wednesday.

All the four semi-finalists for the season have been revealed, with Brisbane Heat and Sydney Sixers set to lock horns in the first qualifier, while Perth Scorchers and Adelaide strikers set to go toe-to-toe in the eliminators.

In the second last match of the league stage competition, Sydney Sixers took on the Perth Scorchers at Perth Stadium, with the place for the qualifier one up for grabs.

Scorchers skipper Aaron Hardie won the toss and opted to bat first.

Scorchers had a bumpy start as they lost their openers cheaply, but Laurie Evans (72), first with skipper Aaron Hardie (32), and then with Cooper Connolly (37*), stitched two great partnerships to take the final score to a respectable 197 for 4 in 20 overs.

Ben Dwarshuis was the most successful bowler for the Sixers with two wickets under his belt, while Todd Murphy and Jackson Bird took one wicket each.

In reply, the Sixers had a great start as Daniel Hughes (74), first with James Vince (22) and then with Josh Philippe (32), stitched two big partnerships for the Sixers.

However, it was skipper Moises Henriques (47*), who, with his blistering innings, took the Sixers over the line despite the late jitters on the final ball of the innings with three wickets to spare.

Sixers, with this win, finished on the second of the points table with 14 points and will play Heat in qualifier 1.

Jason Behrendorff was the lead bowler for the Scorchers with three wickets under his belt, while Aaron Hardie got two wickets under his name.
