Scorchers halt Sixers run

The Sixers four-match winning streak has been snapped after a 61-run loss to the Perth Scorchers at North Sydney Oval. 

Sixers skipper Ellyse Perry was amongst everything as she took two catches in the field, notched up a direct hit run out and finished 2-26 with the ball.  A flying Erin Burns took what could be the catch of the summer, diving at full length while running to dismiss Amy Jones. 

Despite smacking 40 from 29 to get the hosts going, Perry's dismissal sparked a collapse of 6-37 for the Sixers.
