5.03pm Quite fitting that Sixers' hero with the ball also hits their winning runs. Brisbane Heat remain winless, while Sydney Sixers move to second on the points table. Two magical performances from Henriques and Silk have ensured that. See you in under an hour for the day's second game. It's a New-Year special where the two Melbourne sides will be slugging it out. Till then, goodbye from all of us at ESPNcricinfo.

Cutting to Curran, 1 run, yorker on leg stump, and he squeezes it away to short fine leg. Misfield from Mujeeb, and Sydney Sixers start their 2019 on a winning note!

Cutting to Curran, FOUR, waist-high full toss outside off stump, and he smokes this right over cover! Scores tied. What a gift.

Cutting to Philippe, 1 run, full outside off, and he swings across the line to hammer a shot towards deep midwicket
Six needed off the final over. Here's Cutting.

Lalor to Silk, OUT, full on middle, and he looks to slog towards the leg side. Top-edges it, and the keeper gets under it! The set batsman is out. Twist in the tale?

Lalor to Silk, FOUR, length ball outside off, and he clubs a flat-batted shot right over the non-striker! Long off tries to cut it off, but he can't because the shot is too damn straight!

Lalor to Silk, FOUR, full on off, and he's picked the spot beautifully! Uses the wrists to maneuver this over the square-leg umpire, and there's no protection near there
