Sam Billings earlier kept Thunder in the hunt with a well-compiled 33 off 27, while Sam Konstas provided early impetus, striking four boundaries in his 18 off 11 before Gurinder Sandhu’s four-wicket haul threatened to derail the chase. The decisive moment arrived when Green took aim at Sandhu in the 14th over. With 38 needed off 18 balls, Green cleared his front leg and dispatched three enormous sixes in four balls, completely altering the complexion of the contest. The Renegades, who had looked firmly in control after regular wickets, suddenly found themselves scrambling as boundaries flowed freely.
