Renegades remain stuck to the bottom of the table while the Heat pick up maximum points today to create a deadlock with the Strikers and Scorches on 20 points as the trio continue chasing both Sydney franchises leading the pack this tournament. That's all from us today. Come back tomorrow for more BBL action. Take care!
Joe Burns is named Man of the Match: "I just try and be clear with what my options are and just commit to them. Fortunately I got a few boundaries away. It's tough without any fans in the ground. I think it was low and slow before the sun went down and think it got better once the dew came in. We've made a commitment to just trying to be a little bit smarter with how we play. If you take the game as deep as possible, you have a chance of winning some more games. We're on to Melbourne now with slower wickets so this was a good appetizer. Morne scares the bejeezus out of me in the nets so it's good to see him bow at someone else for once."
10:24 pm For a brief moment it looked like the Renegades might steal a win and just as quickly Joe Burns snuffed that out.
