9.52 pm Pretty one-sided performance almost from start to finish by the Heat. Duckett stars with a half-century to set a sizable platform that could not be chased.
Matt Kuhnemann after his three wickets: "Very important win for our boys. To come down to Adelaide and get a win is fantastic. [On Duckett] It was beautiful. I probably get the worst of it in the nets. Very good player of spin."
That's it from us today. On behalf of Himanshu Agrawal, I'm Peter Della Penna. Take care!

Steketee to Agar, 3 runs, length ball swatted back over the bowler's head, diving stop at long-off to slap this back in and save a run in a match won by a 39-run margin by Brisbane Heat.
Jack: "Whilst your here Peter, massive win from the Americans in the T20I yesterday!" It was a famous one for sure as USA beat Ireland in Florida, first win over a Full Member in T20Is for USA.

Steketee to Kelly, OUT, length ball slogged to long-on, simple and casual catch taken a few yards in from the rope by Duckett jogging in stride to his right at waist height.
