Sydney Sixers storm into the finals

This match deserved to be a Semi Final.What a match it looked one sided until the first 10 overs when Sydney Sixers came into bat to chase the target of 163 but Titans turned it around well and took  the match right down to the wire.Titans were not even close to making 140 at one point but thanks to David Weise in the end overs they covered up quite well to reach 163.In return Sydney Sixers dominated from ball one scoring 100 runs in 11 overs but lost it in between but again held their nerves and made the last run required of last ball.So Its going to be Highveld Lions against the Sydney Sixers in the finals which will be held on sunday.That match will definitely be legendary as both the teams are quite strong.Im however hoping for sydney sixers to win lets see how it goes.Below is the full scorecard of the match.
