Starc helps Sixers win rain-hit Sydney derby

A lethal spell of swing bowling from Mitchell Starc led the Sydney Sixers to a 17-run win in a rain-affected game over cross-town rivals Sydney Thunder at Stadium Australia

Match Centre

The covers are out there and the rain looks heavy. If the game was to be called off at this stage, the Sixers would be declared winners.
