[Donny]

"Only Ellyse Perry could pick up a five-wicket haul in her first spell in almost four months and brush it off as "beginner’s luck".

Perry almost single-handedly reignited the Sydney Sixers’ WBBL|09 campaign on Sunday when she picked up a career-best 5-22 and struck an unbeaten 44 against Melbourne Renegades at the WACA Ground."

"It was the first time the 33-year-old had bowled in a game since the first Ashes ODI in Bristol in mid-July, with her recovery from a knee injury restricting her from taking the ball against the West Indies last month, or in domestic cricket so far this summer."

Today.

The Stars set a target of 144 thanks to a fine 67 not out from Meg Lanning. The Renegades battled hard but ultimately came up short, needing a 6 to win off the last ball they could only manage a single.

Annabel Sutherland (4/22) swung the match the Stars way with 4 crucial wickets, and was a deserving Player of the Match.
