9.44 pm Max Bryant dragged his team along for the majority of the innings before captain Peirson gives a solid finishing flourish. But the lack of support elsewhere makes this feel like a below par total, especially with the return of the big guns in the Scorchers lineup, Marsh and Inglis. Stay with us for the start of the chase shortly.

Tom: "As a heat tragic I think it is time to move lynn on". He can still smash it, but has had no consistency this year and his performances are compounded by the fact that the rest of the Heat batting depth is very thin.
