full at off stump, a bottom-handed swing to long-on
Heat vs Hurricanes, 49th Match at Brisbane, BBL, Jan 20 2023 - Match Result
Brisbane Heat win by 12 runs and that's a huge result for them. They are into the top five. Hurricanes' season hangs in the balance. A very good effort from the home side's bowlers on a tricky pitch. Michael Neser led the way and Spencer Johnson was terrific. Things just haven't clicked for Hurricanes although they aren't quite done for yet. Here's how the table looks now.
That brings us to the end of the BBL action for the day. Still plenty to play for in the race to the finals. We'll be back tomorrow with coverage of Australia against Pakistan, the third ODI from North Sydney, and the Sydney Smash between Sixers and Thunder in the evening. Until then, from Alex and Gnasher, it's goodbye and thanks for joining us.
Appears somebody has run on the ground which will be costly exercise for that said person
another dot ball! Magnificent from Johnson. Short of a length, 145kph, David swings over the top of it
can't connect! The crowd go wild. Big swing outside off, angling past him
12 off 3...Johnson doing superbly so far
back of a length, width outside off, driven square through point and again the sweeper gets there
16 off 4
swing and a miss outside off! Was a length delivery angling across. Hittable
full and wide, David flays at it, out to deep point, well fielded but he's able to get back to keep the strike
So it's 18 needed off the last. Spencer Johnson to bowl. Good finish
short of a length, splices a pull to deep square and David tells him to stay point. Dot ball
what a stroke! He's nailed this. Magnificent strike. Length ball, Ashraf just swings cleanly through the line. Brilliant
Faheem Ashraf...
Just as important that's a dot
great catch at long-on! Back of a length, Owen looking to launch it down the ground, comes from low on the bat and Hain makes a lot of ground to hold a brilliant one. Another for Neser
pulls and it falls just short of deep square! Did get all of this and lands safe
walks across the stumps, big appeal for lbw! They don't call the review. Angling down
length ball on the stumps, flicked through midwicket. Weighted that shot perfectly
Brisbane Heat close on clock as well. Rushing through
low full toss outside off, swung to long-on
pushed wide outside off and called again
huge down the ground...that's a monstrous bowl. A length ball outside off, hammered into the sightscreen
a touch wider outside off, slog sweeps to deep midwicket. David turns down the run!
very full, the bottom hand comes off the bat but the power is immense as this goes straight of long-on. Game on
another wide...another extra ball
gets this one...swings hard from outside off and sends it over long-on
fired in at the toes, deflects off the pads to short fine
