Sydney Sixers were batting first and were bowled out for just 132. It was a below par total and Perth Scorchers cruised to the total with ease. Sydney were rocked back early by Jhye Richardson who picked up three wickets. The pacers from Perth Scorchers were excellent as Payne picked up three wickets and Hardie picked up the most important wicket of Steve Smith. No batter from Sixers set up could get going as three players scored 24 which was the highest score but no one could really convert the start into a big one.

In reply, chasing a modest total Perth Scorchers were brutal with the openers Mitch Marsh and Finn Allen taking the bowlers to the cleaners. Perth raced away to 80 runs in just eight overs and killed the chase completely. The first wicket fell at 85 when Marsh got dismissed but It was too little too late. Scorchers did lose a few more wickets but the game was virtually done by them. Josh Inglis and Cooper Connolly were the batters at the crease as Perth won the match and the title in front of a packed crowd.
