Commentary

Brisbane Heat have a team to adapt to any conditions and proving too tough to beat at the moment. The Thunder couldn't apply themselves with the bat and it led to them being on the wrong side of the result. More Cricket coming your way later in the day and the clash between South Africa and India is a must watch. Do make sure to follow the LIVE coverage on our Sportskeeda page. Now, it's time to end the coverage here, until next time, this is Pragadeesh and Mohul signing off. Ciao

Mitchell Swepson, Player of the Match: It was a good performance. I am quite pleased with the way the ball came out of my hand today. I am happy with the way things went. We are all great mates here at the Heat. I love bowling together with Matthew (Kuhnemann) and the results show. We did not have too much of a turnaround time from our red-ball season but that actually helped us. The momentum was with us throughout.

Things unfolded too quickly and we have a result in favour of Brisbane Heat eventually. They made the target of 152 look very big with some clinical bowling inside the powerplay and Swepson weaved his magic in the middle overs to not allow the hosts to get ahead in the contest. Losing wickets at regular intervals didn't help the Thunder's cause as they needed someone to bat till the end to steer the side home. It looked Davies was assigned that responsibility but Kuhnemann removed him to make things worse for the Thunder

The Power Surge remained the only hope for the Thunder and Green went after Bartlett's loose deliveries to smash four boundaries in the first over. His presence was threatening for the Heat until Kuhnemann got the better of him and that turned out to be a final nail in the coffin for the Thunder. Bartlett finished the formalities in the penultimate over and ended his spell with three wickets to his name eventually

18.6 Liam Hatcher to Tanveer Sangha, BOWLED HIM! IT IS ALL OVER! BRISBANE HEAT WIN THIS GAME! Full and straight on off and middle, comes back in. Sangha tries to play the scoop shot but ends up dragging the ball onto his stumps. That will be that, then- the Heat win this game quite comfortably!

Tanveer Sangha, RHB, walks in at no.11

18.5 Xavier Bartlett to Liam Hatcher, BOWLED HIM! Full and straight on off and middle, comes back in. Hatcher tries to heave it away to the on side but does not connect at all. The ball goes past him and dislodges the bails. The Thunder are nine down- the end seems to be near!

18.4 Xavier Bartlett to Liam Hatcher, full and wide outside off, angles away. Hatcher cannot reach for it and misses out again!

18.3 Xavier Bartlett to Liam Hatcher, at a length on middle and leg, slower delivery. Hatcher tries to slog at it but misses.

18.2 Xavier Bartlett to Zaman Khan, full and wide outside off. Khan tries to heave it away to the on side but gets an outside edge to cover. Single taken.

18.1 Xavier Bartlett to Zaman Khan, EDGED AND FOUR! At a length outside off, moves away. Khan tries to heave it to the on side but gets a thick outside edge wide of short third man for a boundary!

Kuhnemann made the difference and his over turned out to be match-defining. Green was threatening and his presence gave Thunder an outside chance but Kuhnemann bowled a smart over to tilt the contest in favour of the Heat

Surely, this is the final nail in the coffin for the Thunder. Green denied a single and lost his wicket in the next ball

17.5 Matthew Kuhnemann to Chris Green, GONE! THE REFUSED RUN BITES GREEN BACK! Tossed up at a length outside off, turns away. Green tries to slash at it but gets a top edge towards cover, where the fielder runs back and takes the catch quite comfortably! The Thunder are in deep trouble.

17.4 Matthew Kuhnemann to Chris Green, flatter and quicker on middle and leg. Green drives it down to long on and refuses the run.

17.3 Matthew Kuhnemann to Liam Hatcher, back of a length outside off, turns away. Hatcher prods it to wide of point for a single.

17.2 Matthew Kuhnemann to Chris Green, back of a length and wide outside off, turns away. Green cuts it to cover for a run.
