Commentary

That's all from us then! This is Soumarya Dutta signing off on behalf of Mohul Bhowmick. See you soon!

Mignon du Preez: We had lost a bit of momentum in the last few games, but we are glad to win this game. A bit too close for comfort, but we will take it. Our batting and bowling has been pretty good but our fielding was something that we needed to work upon. The hustle by the girls was really nice today. They put in their best today. The surface was good to bat upon. The key was to play down the ground other than look elsewhere. Mushangwe bowled extremely well and it was quite challenging to play her.

Brisbane Heat 139/6 in 19.5 overs
Mignon du Preez 60(49) | Megan Schutt 2/29
Charli Knott 21(18) | Anesu Mushangwe 1/17

It was a nail biting finish in the end and there was some intense drama which could have proved to be costly for the Brisbane Heat. But Bess Heath held her nerves and managed to get bat on ball to get them over the line. The Brisbane side have managed to break their losing streak and are back to winning ways with a hard fought victory here against a top side like the Strikers.

They didn't start off that well as Redmayne was dismissed early on as was Grace Harris. Amelia Kerr followed them soon after and they were in a spot of bother at that stage. But the veteran Mignon du Preez and Charli Knott put together a really well crafted partnership which got them through the tricky period and set them up for the chase. du Preez scored a free flowing 60 from just 49 balls and Charli Knott gave here good company as he notched up 21 crucial runs.

Towards the end it was Jess Jonassen who played some big shots and reduced the required rate but she was dismissed at the wrong time and the target was still left to be achieved at that stage. Georgia Voll and Bess Heath managed to knock off the required runs and it was the latter who held her nerve in the end and delivered the winning punch under pressure.

The bowling was good in patches for the Strikers but they lacked the cohesiveness for large parts in the innings. Zimbabwean leggie Anesu Mushangwe did really well to bring them back into the game with her tidy bowling but they had lost the game in between the 10th and 16th over when they conceded far too many runs. Schutt picked up a couple of wickets but she was quite expensive for her teams liking.

20.0

19.5 Danielle Gibson to Bess Heath, TOP EDGED AND FOUR! BRISBANE HEAT WIN THIS GAME! Fullish and a tad wide outside off. Heath tries to carve it away but gets a top edge. The ball goes up and over point and starts running to the fence. The fielder tries her best to stop it but ends up lobbing the ball onto the fence while scooping it back!

19.4 Danielle Gibson to Bess Heath, ANOTHER MISS! Is there going to be a twist in this game? At a length outside off, moves away. Heath tries to slog it away over midwicket but misses out.

19.3 Danielle Gibson to Bess Heath, at a length outside off, moves away. Heath tries to run it down to wide of short third but misses.

19.2 Danielle Gibson to Bess Heath, fullish and wide outside off. Heath tries to carve it away but is beaten at the last moment!

19.1 Danielle Gibson to Georgia Voll, fullish and wide outside off, moves away nicely. Voll leans in and drives it towards deep cover for a single. Three more needed!

There is a massive conference going on betweeen the Strikers players and they're trying to figure out a way to defend these four runs in the final over.

Danielle Gibson [3.0-0-23-0] comes back into the attack.

Megan Schutt kept things tidy for a while which induced the false stroke from Jonassen. However Bess Heath picked up a boundary to ensure that the target came back under control. Just 4 runs needed for the Heat now.

18.6 Megan Schutt to Bess Heath, no run.

18.5 Megan Schutt to Bess Heath, FOUR FIRST BALL! At a length on off and middle. Heath picks it up early and manages to heave it away wide of the fielder at deep midwicket for a boundary to get off the mark!

Bess Heath, RHB, comes to the crease.

Huge wicket for Schutt and it's the hard hitting Jonassen who has to walk back. Is there another twist remaining in this game? The Strikers will be looking to close this over out well now.

18.4 Megan Schutt to Jess Jonassen, HOLES OUT! At a length on off and middle, rolls her fingers over the ball. Jonassen sets herself up and lofts it straight to the hands of Barsby at long on for a simple catch! Jonassen did not try to hit the ball well at all! This can lead to a twist in this game although the Heat are much better placed than the Strikers.

Jess Jonassen c Jemma Barsby b Megan Schutt 15(11b, 2x4, 0x6)

18.3 Megan Schutt to Georgia Voll, at a length on off and middle, angles back in a tad. Voll glances it away to wide of midwicket for a single.

18.2 Megan Schutt to Jess Jonassen, at a length on off and middle, comes back in a tad. Jonassen punches it down to long on for a single.

18.1 Megan Schutt to Georgia Voll, fullish on off and middle, comes back in a tad. Voll flicks it away towards deep midwicket for a single.

Megan Schutt [3.0-0-22-1] comes back into the attack.

Mushangwe ends her spell really well and she has been outstanding today. Just 17 runs came from her four overs and she also picked up a wicket in that. The Heat are in firm control of the game at the moment.
