Scorer: Chandan Duorah | Commentator: Andrew McGlashan
Adelaide Strikers win by eight wickets and finish their season on a high. Melbourne Renegades very poor today. They didn't turn up. Strikers' spinners did the damage, eight wickets between then, with two off the first two balls of the game from Jerrssis Wadia, although Tabraiz Shamsi has taken player of the match. The chase was a formality. Plenty for both teams to think about for next season. There was nothing on this match, but the next one is huge: Perth Scorchers and Melbourne Stars in the race for top spot. Coverage of that will start shortly here. For now, from Gnasher and the scoring team, thanks for joining us for this one.

Elliott to Lynn, 1 no ball, oh dear, that's a massively loopy slower ball wide outside off...could even be a no-ball if it didn't hit the cut strip
Elliott for what could be the final over
