- BATSMENRB4s6sSR7.2 edged and gone! 138kph, little bit of nibble from a length, and Bryant pushed limply at it outside off stump. The edge almost fell short of Ben Dunk behind the stumps, but he dived forwards to take an excellent one-handed catch 47/24.1 struck on the pad, big shout, given! Heazlett got down to sweep in front of square, but there wasn't much turn from a ball that was slightly full of a length, and struck him on the left thigh pad right in front of middle stump. Hinchcliffe makes the breakthrough 19/111.1 Lynn holes out to long-off! Big body blow for Brizzy, who desperately wanted some Lynsanity towards the back end here... Tried to go big over the off side but the ball came high off the bat and flew straight to the man walking in off the rope. NCN picks up a second, with his first ball again 71/48.4 short again, clipped towards midwicket and they charge back for two, but there's a direct hit and this looks pretty good! Yep, Lawrence is some way short of his ground. Hilton Cartwright was the fielder: raced in off the rope, great pick-up-and-throw, and the Stars have another breakthrough 55/316.1 does him with a full bunger! Dil Dil Dilbar, up go the arms in celebration... Cooper walks off shaking his head, having castled himself trying to ramp a straight one! The Power Suuuuuuurrrrge hasn't done Heat much good so far (a bit like the old ODI batting Powerplay, then) 106/517.5 miscued to mid-on, NCN bags a third! Possibly the same ball, held in the back of the hand, nothing for Peirson to work with and he chips tamely to Maxwell on the edge of the ring 114/716.2 two in two as Milenko is well taken at long-on! Went for a big heave-ho to his first ball, smoked off a length and it looked as if it was travelling... but that's a long boundary and Cartwright had time to get under it and snaffle the chance as it dropped over his shoulder! 106/617.6 and now Coulter-Nile runs out Wood in his follow-through! Wood takes off for a kamikaze single, and all the bowler has to do is move to his left, swivel and hit the pegs. This Heat innings is barely lukewarm 114/819.4 pace off, short and pulled straight back, and Bartlett has gone walkabout this time! NCN grabs it and returns to the non-striker's to flip the bails, and this innings is almost done and done 125/919.5 plinked to cover, Coulter-Nile has four-for and a CB! Kuhnemann caught in the ring attempting to scrape the barrel, and that's all she wrote - Heat bowled out with a ball to spare! 125/10Extras6 (b 1, lb 4, nb 1)TOTAL125 all out (19.5 Overs, RR: 6.3)Fall of wickets: 1-19 (Sam Heazlett, 4.1 ov), 2-47 (Max Bryant, 7.2 ov), 3-55 (Dan Lawrence, 8.4 ov), 4-71 (Chris Lynn, 11.1 ov), 5-106 (Tom Cooper, 16.1 ov), 6-106 (Simon Milenko, 16.2 ov), 7-114 (Jimmy Peirson, 17.5 ov), 8-114 (Jack Wood, 17.6 ov), 9-125 (Xavier Bartlett, 19.4 ov), 10-125 (Matthew Kuhnemann, 19.5 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR0.2 gottim! Bartlett nicks off Stoinis with his second ball in BBL cricker! Always said this kid was gonna be big... Fullish and shaping away, a line of beauty and Stoin has an ugly heave to be caught behind! Perfect start for Heat 0/13.2 slapped straight up and the bowler circles under it! The Spice Man hits the ejector seat, and Heat have another in the Powerplay. Maybe a little more air on this, Fletcher was looking to spank this several rows back but sent up a big top-edge 20/26.1 hoicked straight to long-on! Good turn to start, pretty slow through the air and landed on a length. Dunk lined it up, looking to moose it down the ground, but didn't get enough of it and picked on the man 10 yards off the rope 34/314.4 ugly! Slightly fuller ball, Maxwell decides he fancies a reverse-pongo over cover, and gets himself into a right muddle. Looked like it flicked something on the way through, and ends up clipping the top of off stump. Wood gets Maxwell on debut. albeit not in the way he would have imagined... 109/4Extras3 (w 3)TOTAL129/4 (17.1 Overs, RR: 7.51)Fall of wickets: 1-0 (Marcus Stoinis, 0.2 ov), 2-20 (Andre Fletcher, 3.2 ov), 3-34 (Ben Dunk, 6.1 ov), 4-109 (Glenn Maxwell, 14.4 ov)
