Player of the Match

Sam Billings

79(48)

Right then, that is all we have from this game. The action at Gabba is always exciting and the focus will shift to Hobart on Saturday, 24th of December. The home team, Hobart Hurricanes will take on Melbourne Renegades and the action will start at 10 am IST (4.30 am GMT). Do join us for the build-up on that game. Cheers!

Sam Billings is the PLAYER OF THE MATCH for his superb knock of 79 from 48 balls.

Earlier in the game, the Heat managed to get to a par score on the board courtesy of a superb fifty by Billings and counter-attacking knock from Max Bryant at the top of the order. Short was the one who got two early wickets and both he and Agar finished with three wickets each. The batting effort from Billings and Max Bryant was backed by good disciplined bowling and it proved enough to take Heat over the line in this game.

Adelaide Strikers have quality in the batting line-up but they messed it up by losing four wickets in the Powerplay. Colin de Grandhomme and Kelly did build a strong 73-run stand to bring them back into this game. However, both of them lost their wickets in successive overs and that dented Strikers further and eventually despite some handy cameos by the lower order failed to chase down the target.

The Powerplay was the period where Heat needed to stamp their authority to defend this one and they did exactly that as they got four wickets in that period. Michael Neser set the momentum straightaway with a big inswinger to Jake Weatherald and got the wicket off the first delivery. Both he and Mark Steketee bowled brilliantly with the new ball and Matthew Kuhnemann got a big wicket of Lynn that really put the pressure on Strikers. Mark Steketee then came back to break the dangerous-looking 5th-wicket stand and after that Heat managed to get wickets at regular intervals to get the better of the in-form Adelaide Strikers side.

Brisbane Heat have finally notched up their first win of the season and it is a huge statement as they have hunted Strikers who were on a roll after three consecutive wins. This is what BBL is all about, there is intense competition with all teams putting up a strong squad on paper and it all comes down to execution in the middle. Brisbane Heat were on that front in this game and they now are up and running this season.
