Hobart Hurricanes beat Brisbane Heat by 20 runs

Paine: "It was an important game for us. He (Sangakkara) is a class player and it is great to have him with us. Rainbird didn't start well, but came back nicely towards the end. Christian's addition to the team has been great. He brings a lot of energy while on the field. The last game doesn't matter now, we have to start performing from here on."

Tim Paine is the Man of the Match for his unbeaten 58-ball 87.

Game over & we've gone down by 20 runs. A constant flow of wickets meant the chase was always just out of reach. Match wrap to follow.

Cutting caught in the deep & that could hurt us. 35 needed off the last 2 overs. Can we get there? #TurnUpTheHeat #BBL05

Wonder if the pitch is slowing up - doesnt look as easy to score on as it did in the first 10 overs... #bbl05
