Final, Optus Stadium, Perth , Feb 04, 2023
178/5 (19.2/20)
175/7 (20.0/20)
Perth Scorchers beat Brisbane Heat by 5 wickets
Ashton Turner and Adam Voges have been handed the BBL 12 trophy and the whole team now join them in the celebration with the trophy. Tremendous game of cricket this was and this whole season of the BBL has been fantastic. It has been a pleasure to bring you all the coverage of the BBL 12. The cricketing action continues around the world. So, you can switch tabs and enjoy this beautiful game of cricket. Cheers!
Jimmy Peirson, the skipper of Brisbane Heat says that the crowd was amazing with over 50,000 people and congratulates Perth Scorchers and says that they have been the best team and they deserved to win. Thanks his teammates and says that they have come a long way and they played some great cricket and would come back stronger in the next season.
Ashton Turner, the skipper of Perth Scorchers is the PLAYER OF THE MATCH. He says that it is a surreal feeling and he has played cricket for long time but to do it in front of a full capacity home crowd is special. Tells that they had many players in form and that does not always happen in T20 cricket. Mentions that they knew they can win from any moment and energy on the bench was nuts when Cooper Connolly started hitting them.
Time for the Presentation.
Cooper Connolly is in for a quick chat. He says it is a dream come true when they have a huge crowd behind them. Adds that he had complete faith in himself and that everyone advised him to maintain a strong foundation. Ends by saying that they are going to celebrate the win and enjoy the moment.
Brisbane Heat, on the other hand, did most of the things right in this final. They decided to bat first and put up a decent total on the board courtesy of some handy cameos by Max Bryant, Brown and Nathan McSweeney. They followed it up with a spirited bowling performance too and at one point it looked like they would pull off a memorable win here when they got two wickets in the 17th over. However, the 18th over from Bazley cost them and then the experienced Neser crumbled under pressure as Heat have ended as the runners-up of this BBL 12. They played some brillant cricket this season especially at the backend and should be proud of their effort here.
Perth Scorchers were asked to bowl first by Brisbane Heat and were put under pressure early by Josh Brown. However, they managed to get over him and after a fast start for Heat managed to restrict Heat to 175. Jason Behrendorff was the pick of the bowler for the home side with two wickets and with the bat too Perth Scorchers started on a positive note. However, a casual approach costed Stephen Eskinazi his wicket and Bancroft and Hardie too could not last long. Turner though looked like a man on mission and got good support from Inglis as the duo stitched a crucial 80-run stand. However, Inglis and Turner departed in the same over and when Turner got out with still 39 needed off 19 balls it looked difficult for the defending champions. The young Connolly though stood up and Perth got 18 runs off the 18th over and then Hobson finished it off with couple of boundaries in the last over to take Perth Scorchers to their fifth BBL title.
WOW! What a final and what an atmosphere here in the Optus Stadium! The defending champions Perth Scorchers have done it again and really this game was truly worthy of being called a final of a fantastic compeititon like BBL. Let's take a moment though to salute the young man Cooper Connolly, he pulled off some spectacular hits when Perth Scorchers looked down and out with Turner gone and credit should also go to Nick Hobson who kept his composure after a terrible mix-up with his skipper and delivered a killer blow in the final over! This win clearly speaks of the depth of this Perth Scorchers side and they are the deserved winners of this 12th season of the Big Bash League.

OUT! RUN OUT! Oh, this is tragedy for Perth Scorchers! Ashton Turner is gone and this is a big, big moment in this game. Brisbane Heat are right on top now. This is short and on middle. Hobson works it to deep square leg and the batters take a single. Turner tries to go for the second run but Hobson is not that keen, both keep looking at each other and in the meanwhile Spencer Johnson throws the ball towards the batter's end. Turner tries his best to cross and put himself in the safe position in the end but fails to do so as replays confirm that the bails were taken off Jimmy Peirson before Turner crosses Nick Hobson. The Perth Scorchers skipper has to walk back. Cooper Connolly walks out to the middle now.

Drinks break. Brisbane Heat have done very well so far and have put pressure on Perth Scorchers now with 109 runs still needed from 60 balls. It all started with Stephen Eskinazi getting run out due to casual approach and with in-form players like Hardie and Bancroft gone, Scorchers need this pair of Inglis and Turner to take this game deep. We are in for a fascinating final 10 overs of the BBL 12 and let's see how things pan out.

James Bazley To Stephen Eskinazi OUT!
OUT! RUN OUT! Oh, this is poor, very poor awareness by Stephen Eskinazi! He pays the price though and is run out here. First wicket for Heat and this is exactly what they needed. Bazley bowls this on a length and angles it on leg as Stephen Eskinazi skips down the track and tries to work it towards the leg side. He misses and the ball goes off his pads towards the point. Bryant runs towards the ball and fires a direct hit at the bowler's end. Stephen Eskinazi gets a bit lazy as he slowers his pace while running towards the crease probably thinking that the throw will not come on his end. The casual approach though backfires and Perth Scorchers lose their first wicket.
