Commentator: Hemant Brar
That's all from our side. Hope you enjoyed our coverage. Goodbye and see you soon.
Fawad Ahmed is the Man of the Match. "Pretty happy, a good start to 2020 both for myself and the team," he says. "It's a team game, I know one bowler or one batsman can also win a T20 but hopefully we can get together like this as a team, two-three bowlers or two-three batsmen performing together."
9.10pm A comprehensive victory for Perth Scorchers despite some late fireworks from Zahir Khan and Ben Laughlin. Fawad Ahmed was the star with 3 for 16, while Agar finished with 2 for 16 as Heat were bowled out for 109, falling short by 40.
