- BATSMENRB4s6sSR5.3 short ball does it. Lynn's gone. Vital breakthrough for the Scorchers. Lynn is rushed into a pull and gets a top-edge that lobs towards Klinger who dives forward from mid-on to snaffle it 59/110.4 catching practice. McCullum falls to a soft dismissal. A nothing fuller delivery that he could have punched anywhere through the off side. Instead he chips a drive straight into the hands of extra cover 88/39.1 this is a very poor shot. It's the worst delivery to be trying to slog. Has to fetch it from so far outside off, and what's worse, finds the man in the deep to perfection. Simple offering for deep midwicket 84/217.3 appeal for leg before and given. Seemed like that may have gone down leg but the umpire thought otherwise. A fuller delivery that curves into him and beats his attempted flick to pin him in front of leg 156/512.4 another yorker takes out the bail from leg stump. Jams the bat down again but gets an inside edge as the ball crashes into the stumps. Heat faltering after a strong start 94/419.5 goes for a yorker and ends up sending a low full toss instead that has been pummeled straight into the hands of long-on who moves a few quick steps to his right to take a fine catch 189/6Extras8 (lb 2, w 6)TOTAL191/6 (20 Overs, RR: 9.55)Fall of wickets: 1-59 (Chris Lynn, 5.3 ov), 2-84 (Sam Heazlett, 9.1 ov), 3-88 (Brendon McCullum, 10.4 ov), 4-94 (Alex Ross, 12.4 ov), 5-156 (Joe Burns, 17.3 ov), 6-189 (Ben Cutting, 19.5 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR8.2 full and outside off, floated across to him and he has holed out to long-on here. Tries to slog but had to fetch it from outside off. Scorchers sinking here, hurtling towards their first defeat of the tournament 53/34.1 tries to shovel this fuller ball over the leg side and gets a big leading edge as the ball shapes away late and is taken by third man easily. Breakthrough for Heat. They have stifled Scorchers so far 23/14.2 that's a beauty! A ripper Steketee. A back of a length delivery that straightens just enough to find the outside edge of Cartwright's bat as he stays in the crease and hangs his bat out. Taken by the first slip fielder. Steketee on a hat-trick 23/29.2 this is a stunner at square leg. Swepson took a couple of steps and then flew to pluck that flick stroke which he failed to control. The brilliance of the fielder has made this possible. Scorchers slide further, it's all unraveling quickly 62/413.3 straight down the throat of deep midwicket. Flatter and fuller, but he had to fetch it from outside off, he was trying to hit towards the longer boundary as well, didn't hit it as well as he would've liked. Another one bites the dust. 102/514.6 walks across the stumps and pulls this slower length ball straight to deep midwicket. Too easy a catch. The fielder didn't have to move much. 113/616.6 trying to be too clever, but is beaten for pace. Backed away to help this length ball past the keeper, but missed it as the off stump is pegged back. 126/816.3 this was a swirler, but deep square settles underneath that mistimed pull shot to take it easy. The wheels are well and truly coming off the chase 120/718.2 looks to flick this leg side but the ball slants back in to beat his swing and trap him plumb in front of middle. By trying to premeditate, he was left hoping this was a full delivery but this skidded through off length, kept just a touch low to hit him right in front of the stumps 136/918.6 swung away, gets more elevation than distance. Deep midwicket and long-on converged. each looking at the other briefly, but safely taken by Gannon. at coming in from deep midwicket. All over, this has been as comprehensive as a win can get for Brisbane Heat.
