Sydney Sixers make it back-to-back titles as James Vince stars in BBL 10 final

England’s James Vince blasted 95 and later took a crucial catch as the Sydney Sixers downed the Perth Scorchers for their third title in Australia’s Big Bash final in Sydney on Saturday.

Vince’s fireworks propelled the Sixers to 188/6 and they restricted the Scorchers to 161/9 to win by 27 runs.

Coming on the back of an unbeaten 98 against the Scorchers, Vince again blitzed the Scorchers’ bowling, surviving two dropped catches in the 80s before he was dismissed just five short of a century in the Sixers 188 for six.

Vince crowned his night with a sensational diving catch at short extra cover to dismiss big-hitting Mitch Marsh for 11 and put the defending champion Sixers firmly on top in the 15th over.
