7.45pm Heat finish on 214, and Ponting informs us that the highest successful chase at the Gabba is 210. A lot of work for the Stars to do, then, but they have the firepower to do it. Terrific exhibition of clean hitting from Colin Munro, and useful efforts from everyone else who batted around him.
"99 or hundred, it doesn't really matter," Munro says, as he walks off the field. "I think it's a good wicket, it's important to change it up [with the ball]."
Ed: "Heat looking to making amends for dropping the trophy last summer..."

Paris to Bryant, FOUR, Munro stranded on 99, but he won't be too displeased because Bryant has finished with 4, 4, 4. Slants a full one across now, and Bryant throws his hands at it and gets a thick edge that streaks away fine of short third

Paris to Bryant, FOUR, wow, looks like Munro will finish 99 not out. Full-toss on the legs, and Bryant whips it away wide of short fine leg, picks up four more

Paris to Bryant, FOUR, low full-toss on off stump, and that's not a great delivery with mid-off in the circle. But you could see he was trying the yorker. Just a punch, and he clears mid-off and almost clears the straight boundary too!

Paris to Munro, 1 run, wide length ball, carved out to deep cover point. Just a single. Well, well. He's on 99 now
