That's all from us. Thanks for joining and see you soon
With the win tonight, the Heat have actually kept alive a theoretical chance to progress. They have to win their remaining matches, hope that the Melbourne Stars lose their remaining matches and also need some other results to go their way.
Lynn: Can't really put a finger on it, know we can't progress but good to have a win. The guys were exceptional with the ball, especially Kuhnemann, on debut, bowling in the powerplay. I wanted to make sure we didn't make the same mistake as we did a week ago in Melbourne.
10.35pm And the Heat manage to keep their noses ahead of the Scorchers in the battle of the backbenchers with an emphatic six wicket win. Furthermore, they give something to the home crowd to cheer about with their first win at the Gabba this season. Chris Lynn led the way with some monstrous hits over the fence but was largely measured in the way he went about the chase, holding fort as the others batted around him.

Tye to Lynn, SIX, length on middle and and what a way to finish things off. That hung high up in the air forever but also had more than enough distance and that's the win for the Heat
