20th Over
That's all from Etihad Stadium tonight - join us tomorrow at 4.30pm AEDT for the back to back clashes between the Hurricanes and Thunder and the Strikers and Sixers.
The Renegades remain on top of the table undefeated, the Heat remain 6th on 2 points.
Ben Cutting has been named man of the match for his all round performance. He took 2/12 off his 4 overs and made 33 of 24 with the bat.
So that's a great victory for the Renegades. It didn't look likely with 5 overs remaining but some big hitting by Cooper, Rohrer and Sheridan got them over the line. They scored 54 runs off the last 25 balls.
Over 19.1: Roach to Rohrer, FOUR, full toss and hit through wide mid on to the rope - that's the winning runs!
 19th Over
1 run required off the final over for victory.
Over 18.6: Perera to Sheridan, FOUR, smashed again to the wide long off rope - scores level now. MLR 4/133 (Rohrer 26, Sheridan 11)
Over 18.5: Perera to Sheridan, two runs, down on one knee and smashing it along the ground to widish long off
Over 18.4: Perera to Sheridan, no run, full pitched and hit back down the wicket
Over 18.3: Perera to Rohrer, one run, full toss again and pulled on the bounce to deep mid wicket
Over 18.2: Perera to Rohrer, two runs, low full toss hit to long on
Over 18.1: Perera to Rohrer, FOUR, turned fine off his pads, there's no fine leg and it goes to the rope
 18th Over
14 runs required now off 12 balls.
Over 17.6: Roach to Sheridan, FOUR, full toss and hit to cow corner, it bounced just before the rope. MLR 4/120 (Rohrer 19, Sheridan 5)
Over 17.5: Roach to Rohrer, one run, playing to shortish third man
Over 17.4: Roach to Rohrer, SIX, he smashes that high over the straight mid wicket rope - all the way for 6 runs! 91 metres that six.
Over 17.3: Roach to Sheridan, one run, plays it down to gully to get off the mark
Over 17.2: Roach to Cooper, no run, OUT, fuller ball this time, taken on the pad and the finger goes up for LBW! Great response by Roach there.
Over 17.1: Roach to Cooper, SIX, short and pulled hard and high over the deep square rope
