Match Details
Finally! Finally, Brisbane Heat have put points on the table. Jimmy Peirson’s side have scored their first win of the season, plus they have also bagged that Bash Boost point as well. Initially, it was the Chris Lynn Show that made the chase just a formality, then Heazlett and skip Peirson provided the finishing touches.
Lynn came out to the middle in some mood. His mood, you ask? It was to thump the bowlers all across the park. He blistered them with some marvellous boundaries and a six from the very first. As the Powerplay went on, Lynny tied his boots on and went berserk. But he got out soon later to some deceptive bowling from Zahir Khan, who was clinical throughout the day taking 3 wickets and a low catch in the fine leg region.
The Renegades bowlers tried to redeem themselves in the middle phase by putting brakes on the run flow and taking regular wickets. However, that wasn't enough after the blastering knock of Lynn, as Melbourne were always 20-25 runs short. Heazlett was the reason the Heat got over the line despite wickets at regular intervals hindering their chances of a comfortable win. He alongside Jimmy Peirson eased the things, after a few hiccups in the middle phase, as Brisbane managed to get their first points of the season.
