Perth Scorchers 156 for 5 (Inglis 47, Bancroft 46, K Richardson 2-21) beat Melbourne Renegades 155 for 6 (Finch 65, Tye 3-32) by five wickets
Maddinson’s slump continued when he was out for a first-ball duck, giving him a total of just three runs in his last five innings. His day got worse when he injured his knee while fielding during the second over of Scorchers’ chase, twisting his left leg as he turned to throw the ball.
The 31-year-old immediately slumped to the turf and was assessed for several minutes before being driven off the field. Renegades are yet to determine the full extent of the injury, with Maddinson set to be sent for scans.
Richardson was on a hat-trick when he removed Adam Lyth with the last ball of one over and du Plessis with the first of another, but he could not complete the feat.
Bancroft was brilliantly run out by Will Sutherland, but Inglis took the reins and put his side on the brink of victory.
There was late drama when Inglis unsuccessfully reviewed an lbw decision and was given out before Nick Hobson hit the winning run off Sutherland.
