Overview
- Perth posted 7-219 at Docklands and restricted the Renegades to 7-169 to win by 50 runs and clinch a place in the BBL finals.
- Allen reached his maiden BBL century in 51 balls and finished with 101 off 53, including eight sixes and five fours, the second-fastest ton in Scorchers history.
- Renegades seamer Sam Elliott was the pick of the bowlers with 4-28, while Adam Zampa claimed 1-31 from four overs.
- Allen did not field due to hamstring cramp and Mitch Marsh was struck on the heel, with both expected to be fine for Saturday’s top-two decider against the Stars.
- Allen was bought by KKR for Rs 2 crore in the IPL auction, is rested for New Zealand’s T20Is in India, and is named for the 2026 T20 World Cup, as former Scorcher AJ Tye retired from the BBL to join Yorkshire.
