Sydney, Feb 8: Sydney Sixers on Saturday beat Melbourne Stars by 19 runs to win their second Big Bash League title. The match was off to a delayed start due to persistent rain in Sydney. It was finally decided it would be a 12-overs-a-side contest and the Stars won the bat flip and chose to bowl first.

Opener Josh Philippe scored 52 while Steve Smith scored 21 to get them going. Jordan Silk's 27 off 15 balls down the order then helped the Stars post a total 116/5.
