HUR vs HEA Live Cricket Score

5.1 OUT! TAKEN! Ellis strikes on the first ball and Hobart Hurricanes are well and truly on top here! It is a slower ball, on a length, around off. Lynn wants to stamp his authority and decides to put the new bowler under pressure. This was coming sooner rather than later. Lynn goes for the booming drive but gets the outer half of the blade. The ball goes towards backward point and Riley Meredith gets low to take a good low catch. 26/3

1.2 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Riley Meredith strikes early and Brisbane Heat lose their first wicket. Meredith hurls a good-length ball, around the corridor of uncertainty. Peirson has a tentative poke at it and it takes the outside edge towards the keeper. Matthew Wade behind the sticks makes no mistake and the Hurricanes are delighted! 7/1

2.3 OUT! CAUGHT! Another one departs and Brisbane Heat are in a spot of bother! This is a good-length ball, angling away from outside off. Duckett stays back and flashes hard but it goes off the outside edge towards Peter Handscomb at first slip who takes a sharp catch. The bowlers are getting good purchase from this surface and boy, Thomas Rogers and Riley Meredith are breathing fire right now! There is a bit of drizzle in the air and that has spiced things up a bit more. Hobart Hurricanes would be happy that they won the toss and decided to bowl first! 14/2

12.1 OUT! TAKEN! Another one bites the dust and this is a very soft dismissal! Back of a length, around off. Sam Heazlett looks to nudge it to the leg side but he closes the bat face early and it goes off the leading edge towards Tim David at extra cover who takes a simple catch. Brisbane Heat slip further. 77/6

8.1 OUT! TAKEN! Now, Jordan Thompson takes a wicket on his first ball! Brisbane Heat are staring down the barrel now. Max Bryant would be very disappointed with the way he has got out here. Length and down the leg side. Max Bryant flicks it nicely but straight towards deep square leg. Nathan Ellis charges in and takes the catch! 47/4

10.3 OUT! LBW! That is a peach of a delivery from Ellis and he strikes straightaway after the Drinks break! Ellis serves a full ball, jagging back in from middle. Xavier Bartlett looks to flick it across the line and he misses. The ball hits him low on his pad and Ellis puts in an appeal. The umpire raises the dreaded finger and Bartlett is a goner! 64/5

17.4 OUT! TAKEN! The X-factor player is gone! But, Jack Wildermuth has made sure that his team are out of deep trouble! Tossed up, on off. He gets low to slog sweep but gets more height than distance on it. The ball goes high in the air and D'Arcy Short settles under it at deep mid-wicket to take it. 119/7

19.4 OUT! TAKEN! Length ball, on off. Mark Steketee heaves it to wide long on. Harry Brook takes an easy catch by moving to his right. Peter Handscomb, who is on the mic, adds that the side which Steketee was targetting, is just 57 metres. So Ellis was bowling it wide outside off. 142/8

1.1 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! There comes the early wicket that Heat were looking for and it is the dangerous Wade, who has to walk back! Xavier Bartlett bowls this full and wide outside off. Wade could have left it alone but he decides to chase it. All he gets is the outside edge and Jimmy Peirson takes it with ease behind the sticks. 1/1

1.5 OUT! LBW! DREAM START FOR BRISBANE HEAT! The man in form, Ben McDermott, has to walk back for a duck! Adam Gilchrist says 'There is no bigger wicket in the BBL right now' and Xavier Bartlett is delighted to get this wicket! He serves a full one, on middle. Ben McDermott shuffles a bit and looks to flick it away but gets hit on the pads. The umpire raises the finger and Ben McDermott is a bit disappointed with that decision. He thinks that the ball would have been sliding down the leg stump. Nonetheless, he walks back for a duck. Well, well the Ball Tracker shows umpire's call on impact and wickets. So, a close call but not necessarily a wrong decision. 6/2

14 OUT! TAKEN! That should seal the game! Length ball, on off. Short pulls it hard down the ground. But the man at mid on is quite straight. Mark Steketee dives to his right and takes a stunner. 79 needed in 6 overs and it looks an impossible task now. 72/6

8 OUT! LBW! Mujeeb Ur Rahman gets his man and Hobart Hurricanes lose their third wicket. Mujeeb serves a ball that comes back in, landing on middle and turning in late. Harry Brook looks to flick but he misses and gets rapped on the pads. The bowler appeals and the umpire raises his finger in no time. This is a huge wicket in the context of the game as Brook was looking good in the middle. 38/3

11.1 OUT! TAKEN! Straight to the man! Peter Handscomb's short blitz ends! Tossed up, wide outside off. He sweeps it aerially but straight to the man at deep mid-wicket. Max Bryant takes the catch. 58/4

13.4 OUT! TAKEN! Another one bites the dust and Brisbane Heat are well and truly on top! Length ball, on off. David looks to heave it away but gets the top edge. The ball goes miles in the air towards short fine leg. Jimmy Peirson runs from behind the stumps. He gets to the ball and dives to take it! 68/5

15.2 OUT! BOWLED! Mujeeb Ur Rahman strikes and Hobart Hurricanes slip further! This is a flatter ball, around off and angling in late. Jordan Thompson prods to block but the ball goes past his blade and cannons onto the off pole. 93/7

18.1 OUT! TAKEN! Mark Steketee gets the wicket of Ellis and the Hurricanes lose another wicket. Fuller and wider, outside off. Nathan Ellis drags it uppishly straight towards Xavier Bartlett at long on who takes a good catch. Riley Meredith is the new man in. 120/8
