Scorer: Binoy George | Commentator: @debayansen
Varun Shetty's report would be up shortly. The BBL returns tomorrow, and we hope you will join us then. For now, from scorer Binoy George and myself Debayan Sen, this is goodbye and good night.
9.47 pm That ends what has been a really entertaining game of T20. That's also the halfway stage of the tournament, though not all the teams have played their seven matches. We thought Thunder had put up a pretty challenging total, but they didn't help their own cause with their ill-discipline. Chris Lynn got some runs, and Joe Burns led the chase with a composed half-century for his team. Jimmy Peirson with some crucial runs right at the end, when Heat appeared to suffer a bit of a late wobble. Crucial three points for the win for Heat, and they also get the Bash Boost point. Joe Burns gets the player of the match award.

Sangha to Peirson, 2 runs, that should be the win for the Heat! Length, and a lot of turn from outside off, and Peirson has done well to pierce an infield of six fielders, three on the off side, but placing this to the left of cover. Before the sweeper in the deep can rifle in a low throw, they go through for the second
END OF OVER:19 | 7 Runs 1 Wkt | BH: 173/5 (2 runs required from 6 balls, RR: 9.10, RRR: 2.00)

Sangha comes on, with a hat-trick ball to start things with. No hat-tricks in the past for Thunder bowlers in BBL history

McAndrew to Bazley, FOUR, length, and punished. Swatted away towards deep mid-wicket, and goes through for four. We are denied a potential grandstand finish. Or are we?

McAndrew to Bazley, no run, good pace, short length, and Bazley looks to pull this away but gets nowhere near it as it fizzes past his right ear

McAndrew to Bazley, no run, fuller ball, and where has this one gone? Yorker length, and he looks to get some bat on to it. Perhaps just hit it off the toe-end, and almost on to his stumps, but it bounces through to Billings
Here's Bazley

McAndrew to Burns, OUT, short, and he has cut this straight to point. A very good Burns innings comes to an end. Couldn't be blamed for that dismissal, would have gotten four had he just managed to place it wide of Khawaja, or perhaps just clear him. In the end, a good sharp catch by the latter, and Heat lose their fifth

McAndrew to Burns, no run, sharp, short, and close to the batsman. Burns ducks under this
