Brisbane Heat

The Gold Coast. It's the home of multiple theme parks so let's commence this wild ride that is the Brisbane Heat verse Sydney Thunder rematch.

There was genuine carnage around him in the early stages and he just continued to smack them to all parts. Bazley fell when he was trapped Plum Jam off the bowling of Usman Qadir (1/30 from 4 overs). James Bazley (29 from 24) joined Munro and with three overs remaining the equation was 37 runs required from 18 balls. The final over came along and the Heat required 16 runs from it. He’d fake to the leg side, go for a walk, crab across his stumps, back away and show the bowler his stumps, it was all happening. Colin Munro went berserk in the third and fourth overs to get the scoreboard moving. The Thunder cracked them in the Power Surge and for the rest of the innings. We had the guy who headbutted one a couple of nights ago and then tonight an Ollie Davies six was dropped in the crowd and the bloke fell backwards over his chair and smack his ribs on the next row of chairs. Mark Steketee (0/48 from 4 overs) swung the ball around corners and beat the bat another five times in the second over. Big wraps for James Bazley though as he bowled the final over and finished with figures of 4/22 from his four overs. End of the first Powerplay and the score was 0/26. and by that I mean, he rolled his ankle in the warm up.

The Sydney Thunder defied a powerhouse knock from Brisbane's Kiwi opener to secure an 11-run BBL victory.

* Bazley was the pick of the bowlers, taking 4-22 from his four overs and finding himself on a hat-trick in the final over. Earlier in the innings, Rilee Rossouw (39 off 35) and Matthew Gilkes (37 off 35) combined for a 57-run second-wicket partnership to lay down a solid foundation for the Thunder. A controversial ball change in the final over brought about an immediate result as Nathan McAndrew (4-32 from four) had Munro caught at deep mid-wicket – one of three wickets to fall in the space of five balls. But the result came at a cost for the Thunder after strike bowler Gurinder Sandhu sustained a left calf strain bowling the first ball of the Heat innings, putting his availability for the match with Hobart on Saturday in doubt.

Some vital contributions from batters inspired Thunder to reach a competitive total. But unfortunately, the left-handed batter, in an attempt to clear the mid-wicket off Nathan McAndrew, failed to time the ball and Daniel Sams took a sensational outfield catch to dismiss Munro. However, opener Colin Munro had some other plans as he played one of the finest BBL knocks to keep Heat in the game.
