Get Ball by Ball Commentary of Brisbane Heat vs Adelaide Strikers, Big Bash League 2018, 1st Match

Well, plenty happened in that innings...Chris Lynn, a bonkers non run out, a collapse of 8 for 51, and then the last-wicket stand of 45! Should still be the Strikers' game here. This isn't a great total on a good batting pitch. The bowling was very good during the middle period, but there was some poor batting. I'll be back in five minutes for the chase

PRP: "Mujeeb and Peirson - Take a bow guys! You have given Brisbane Heat more than a ray of hope."

19.4

Neser to Mujeeb Ur Rahman, OUT, taken at long-on so they can't quite see out the 20 overs...doesn't quite get the legs required as he tries to loft a full delivery down the ground

Smith: "Highest score by a #11 in BBL ever!! Wow, you wouldn't think so..."

18.6

Laughlin to Peirson, SIX, that sounds great...and it's huge! A fuller delivery, a slower ball, he goes down on his back knee and deposits into the second tier over long-on

18.5

Neser to Mujeeb Ur Rahman, 1 run, there's the yorker, jabbed into the leg side

Tim: "I'd normally agree Craig - but that was so egregiously bad it almost brought the 3rd umpire into disrepute. Sometimes you have to do something when a decision is so woeful!"
