Liam Haskett scores two off the last ball of the innings, meaning that Heat lose by 14 runs. Sandhu 4-0-35-2.
#cricket #T20 #BBL #BBL15 #MRvBH

An inexcusable wide from Sandhu, but he responds immediately by bowling Afridi to make it 196-8, 17 needed off one ball. A Brisbane Heat debut to forget for the Pakistani pacer - a horror show with the ball and a duck with the bat.
#cricket #T20 #BBL #BBL15 #MRvBH

Single off the third last ball of the match and now 18 are needed of just two balls. All Gurinder Singh Sandhu has to do is bowl two legal deliveries.
#cricket #T20 #BBL #BBL15 #MRvBH

Another extra off the first ball of the last over and Heat need 25 off the last five balls with Weibgen back on strike.
#cricket #T20 #BBL #BBL15 #MRvBH

A leg by of the final ball of the 19th, and 26 are needed off the final over, with Afridi on strike at the start of it. Sutherland not sending it upstairs because he reckons Afridi being on strike suits his side. Sutherland 4-0-33-3.
#cricket #T20 #BBL #BBL15 #MRvBH

The ball after reaching 50 Peirson goes, caught by sub fielder Harry Dixon at backward point off Sutherland. Heat 186-7, need 27 off seven balls with Afridi, who had an absolute shocker with the ball, coming in to bat.
#crickt #T20 #BBL #BBL15 #MRvBH

50 for Peirson off just 21 balls, with three sixes and four fours. Heat still need 27 off the last eight balls, but a couple more boundaries to finish this over and bring the target below 20 would give them some sort of hope.
#cricket #T20 BBL #BBL15 #MRvBH

Some good stuff for Heat in the over, but Behrendorf hauled it back by going for only two singles off the last two balls. Heat 168-6 after 18 overs, needing 45 off the last two at 22.50 per over, current RR 9.33.
#cricket #T20 #BBL #BBL15 #MRvBH

13 off that over, which in the context of what Heat need makes it a poor one for them. They are 153-6 after 17 overs, needing 60 off the last three overs at 20.00 per over, current RR 9.00.
#cricket #T20 #BBL #BBL15 #MRvBH

Finally Heat showing a bit of fight - Peirson getting stuck into O'Neill. A total of 21 off that over. Heat are 140-6 after 16 overs, needing 73 more from the last four at 18.25, current RR 8.75 per over.
#cricket #T20 #BBL #BBL15 #MRvBH

Successive fours to end the 15th over, but it is still a bad one for Heat. They are 121-6, needing 92 from the last five at 18.40 per over, current RR 8.07.
#cricket #T20 #BBL #BBL15 #MRvBH

The 15th over starts dot, dot, one, and already Heat are likely to end it even further behind the rate than they started it.
#cricket #T20 #BBL #BBL15 #MRvBH

Just four off the over in the end. Heat are 112-6 from 14 overs, needing 101 from the last six overs at 16.83 per over, current RR 8.00.
#cricket #T20 #BBL #BBL15 #MRvBH

This is the sort of situation in which the required run rate can get out of hand very quickly. Just two runs have accrued from the first four balls of the 14tth over, meaning that even sixes off the last two will leave Heat short of the required number of runs from the over.
#cricket #T20 #BBL #BBL15 #MRvBH

Bartlett goes to the final ball of the 13th over, going big but succeeding only in picking out Jake Fraser-McGurk at deep midwicket. Heat 108-6 after 13 overs need 105 off the last seven overs at 15.00 per over, current RR 8.31. Will Sutherland 3-0-15-2.
#cricket #T20 #BBL #BBL15 #MRvBH

That could be curtains for Heat - Munro goes caught by Hassan Khan off Will Sutherland for 55 (32 balls, three fours, five sixes) and Heat are 106-5 in the 13th over and in deep trouble.
#cricket #T20 #BBL #BBL15 #MRvBH

One ball left in the Power Surge, Weibgen on strike, and he needs to make it count - this has been a poor over for Heat so far.
He can do no better than a single, and just nine come from that over, making it 23-1 in the surge. Heat 105-4 after 12 overs, need 108 more off the last eight at 13.50 per over, current RR 8.75.
#cricket #T20 #BBL #BBL15 #MRvBH

Weibgen does not get bat to his first ball, but does get through for a leg bye to get Munro back on strike.
#cricket #T20 #BBL #BBL15 #MRvBH

Bryant hits the first ball of the 12th over for four, putting pressure on Behrendorf. He goes big off the second but holes out to midwicket for 14 (16). Heat 100-4 in the 12th.
#cricket #T20 #BBL #BBL15 #MRvBH

Heat are 96-3 after 11 overs, 14 of that first over of the Power Surge. They need 117 off the last nine overs at 13.00 per over, current RR 8.73 per over.
#cricket #T20 #BBL #BBL15 #MRvBH

Munro makes use the free hit to bring up his half century with the fifth six of his innings. It has taken him 28 balls to get there, with three fours as well as those sixes.
#cricket #T20 #BBL15 #BBL #MRvBH

Surge taken instantly, as my last post suggested might be an idea. Sandhu to bowl the 11th over.
#cricket #T20 #BBL #BBL15 #MRvBH

Brilliant comeback by Matthew Spoors after his first ball was hit for six. Just three further runs off the over. Heat are 82-3 after 10 overs, needing 131 from the last 10 at 13.10 per over, current RR 8.20. Heat now have to consider when to take their Power Surge. Munro is set, and Bryant has already faced 10 balls, so maybe they should go early.
#cricket #T20 #BBL #BBL15 #MRvBH

Excellent over from the second best cricketer in the Sutherland family, Will of that ilk. Just four from it. Heat 73-3 after nine overs, need 140 from the last 11 at 12.73 per over, current RR 8.11.
#cricket #T20 #BBL #BBL15 #MRvBH

A six and a four to Munro to end the eighth over. Heat are 69-3, Munro 36* (20), and need 144 more from 12 overs at 12.00, current RR 8.625.
#cricket #T20 #BBL #BBL15 #MRvBH

End of the seventh over and Heat are 56-3, needing 157 more from the last 13 at 12.08 per over, current RR 8.00.
#cricket #T20 #BBL #BBL15 #MRvBH

Third wicket down, Renshaw playing one from Gurinder Singh Sandhu straight to short third where Behrendorf takes the catch. Renshaw 18 from 11, Heat 55-3 in the seventh over.
#cricket #T2- #BBL #BBL15 #MRvBH

Five overs gone in the chase and Heat are 36-2, needing 177 more from the last 15 overs at 11.80 per over, current RR 7.20.
#cricket #T20 #BBL #BBL15 #MRvBH

Renegades end their innings with a score for 212-5, which even on a good pitch and at a smallish ground will take a lot of chasing.
