The Sixers have opened their BBL|13 account with an eight-run victory over the Renegades at the SCG.
After being sent into bat, Steve Smith set the tone for the Sixers, top scoring with 61 and building a 69-run partnership with Moises Henriques (40). A late flurry of runs from Jordan Silk (26no from 14) added a much-needed boost to the Sixers total.
Ben Dwarshuis starred with the ball, picking up three wickets including that of the ominous Jake Fraser-McGurk (48 off 24).
