8.45 pm The Heat tail helps claw to 140 to give them a fighting chance but Sydney Thunder look like heavy favorites in this chase after a disciplined bowling effort. Only Duckett made a decent contribution of the recognized batters. Stay with us for the start of the chase when Andrew McGlashan will be back in the central commentary position.
