Key Moments

11:26 AM

Both games today had the team batting first post 132 - a total which is hard to defend in this day and age, and hence the one-sided rubbers. Melbourne Renegades now have two wins in a row and are looking good from the top of the table. Long way to go. There's a couple of days off now in the BBL. See you with more action on Boxing Day. Cheers!
