Aaron Finch starred with the bat but the confrontation between Shane Warne and Marlon Samuels stole the show as Melbourne Renegades beat Melbourne Stars at the MCG.

T20 - Melbourne Cricket Ground

6 January 2013 - Day 1, Session 2

Renegades 1st Innings

A. Finch	67	47	6	2	142.55
P. Nevill	24	23	1	0	104.35
J. Hastings	3.5	0	31	0	8.09

Finch returned to haunt the Stars just a few weeks after smashing a hundred against them in the opening match of the KFC T20 Big Bash League season, this time hitting 67 runs off 47 balls to get the Renegades home by nine wickets with seven balls to spare.

But this game will always be remembered for the fiery confrontation between Warne and Samuels.

The row looked to be sparked by Samuels's actions early in the match, when he looked appeared to hold David Hussey back when the Stars batsman was attempting a second run.

When Samuels came out to bat in the next innings, he was greeted by a tirade by Warne, who gave the West Indies batsman an earful out in the middle.

But more was to follow, as Warne threw the ball gently at Samuels in the next over, and the Renegades batsman responded by throwing his bat in the direction of Warne.

After more words were exchanged, the umpires eventually stepped in to cool down the situation. Samuels actually looked in good touch after the incident, but unfortunately was forced to leave the field after top-edging a bouncer from Lasith Malinga into his face.

Earlier, decent hitting from Luke Wright, Rob Quiney and a couple of late sixes from all-rounder James Faulkner helped the Stars post 9-146 from their 20 overs.
