[2] The Sixers went on a two-game winning streak, defeating Brisbane Heat and Adelaide Strikers on the road.
Scorchers all rounder Adam Voges picked off the run with a boundary from the first ball of Brett Lee's super over.
The Scorchers began proceedings horrifically losing two wickets without score from the first over of the game by Brett Lee.
With regular opener Michael Lumb out for the game, Stephen O'Keefe partnered Nic Maddinson at the top of the order.
Then when Moises Henriques and Marcus North both returned to the pavilion without troubling the scorers the Sixers were 4/20.
Smith continued scoring runs and looked in fine form as he reached his half century.
However, the game turned on its head once more when Dan Smith attempted to play a reverse sweep only to scoop the ball to fine leg.
A mistimed shot of the bowling of Yasir Arafat saw him caught at short third man by Voges with the Sixers 7/131.
The Sixers super over was disastrous as Steve Smith was out bowled from the first ball attempting a low-percentage lap sweep.
The one run scored by Maddinson was easily surpassed by the Scorchers as Voges flicked Lee's first ball through the leg side for a boundary.
