And that's it. Stars complete a comfortable win.
12.1 K Richardson to T Rogers
nb That's it. Stars win by eight wickets. Their fourth successive victory in the BBL 2023-24 season. High full-toss, on off, Rogers stays back in his crease, thumps it high over mid-on and reaches the non-striker's end. But as it's a NO-BALL, the game is done. A clinical victory for Stars who are maintaining the already-sustained momentum. They jump to third in the table. Clearly, Renegades felt the absence of Mujeeb Ur Rahman.
Scores are level now with 12 balls left.

Boundary check here. Looks like a clean stop from Jake Fraser-McGurk who did well to get there.
