A magnificent partnership has taken Brisbane Heat to a very strong total. Brilliant batting from Sam Hain and Jimmy Peirson after the home side had been in some bother. Melbourne Stars looked like a side whose season is over. Can they dig deep with the bat? You've got to back Heat from here. Feels like they are timing their run to finals pretty well. Alex will be with you in a few minutes for the second innings.

Dave: "Is Hain an Australian or English " He was born in Hong Kong and has a British passport. Grew up in Australia and played U19s for Australia but has since qualified for England and played for the England Lions. He is an England-based player playing for the Heat as an overseas player.
