10.37pm Five wins on the trot for the Hurricanes. They go up to third place. This was a superb performance in so many ways. They pulled things back nicely after Brendon McCullum looked like he may fire Heat to a big total. They never looked out of control in the chase. It was nicely-paced. There was that brief stutter when Christian and Short fell in quick succession but it never got out of hand. And finally, it was a thorough team effort. All of these are great signs as we inch closer to the knockouts. George Bailey's form is a cause of massive concern, but all in all lots for Hurricanes to be happy about. That's all we have from this game. Thank you for joining us. If you want a dose of Test cricket, head over to India v South Africa. If you want a dose of ODI cricket, head over to the tri-series opener between Bangladesh and Zimbabwe. Goodbye!
