Jake Fraser-McGurk: "I was a bit nervous towards the end. But I'm happy we sealed our first win. I don't know a lot about Joe Clarke's injury. Hopefully, he'll be fine. Shaun Marsh was brilliant. Marsh's experience will be key for us going forward. There's always been belief but there was a point a year and a half ago, where I thought I needed to do something different. I did that, and it's starting to show results and hopefully keeps going. I enjoy hitting sixes."

That's the winning run!! After a long wait, Renegades finish the match now.
18.4 D Payne to T Rogers
1 THAT's IT. Renegades win by four wickets, stay alive for the BBL finals race. Full length delivery, on middle, Rogers moves to his right, lofts it over mid-off for a single and seals the deal.
18.3 D Payne to T Rogers
0 Yorker length, on off, Rogers digs it out to mid-on.
Joe Clarke is retired again and Adam Zampa replaces him. Tom Rogers replaces Shaun Marsh, who recently got out.
Marsh got out on 54 and gets denied off hitting the winning run.
18.2 D Payne to S Marsh
W OUT! Oh no!! Shaun Marsh fails to finish things off for the Renegades. David Payne has the better of Marsh. Yorker, on middle, Marsh aims to clip it to deep mid-wicket, but the ball goes under his bat and rattles the stumps. End of an impressive innings from the Australian.
18.1 D Payne to S Marsh
0 Over the wicket. Slower good length ball down the leg side. Marsh throws his bat at it and the ball gets a connection from the bottom part of the bat and goes to the short fine leg fielder for no run. It was way down leg and Marsh should have left that alone!
Just the winning single is needed from the final two overs.
