Michael Neser to Sam Whiteman, FOUR! A lovely piece of timing and Sam Whiteman is underway with a boundary. Bowled on a good length outside off and nipping away, Whiteman stays back and watches it well before reaching out and patting it away past backward point for a boundary.

Michael Neser to Zak Crawley, OUT! CAUGHT! Straight to the man at short 45 and Michael Neser gets rid of Zak Crawley. Slightly fuller on middle and leg, floated up a bit and Crawley looks to flick it off the legs. Crawley gets good timing on it but ends up hitting it uppishly and straight to Spencer Johnson at short fine leg. Johnson takes a simple catch and Crawley has to walk back.

Spencer Johnson to Sam Whiteman, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Excellent review and Spencer Johnson has his first wicket. Johnson steams in yet again from over the wicket and serves it on a hard length around off, getting it to nip away a bit. Sam Whiteman stays put and looks to just tap it away close to the body. The ball goes past the bat and into the hands of Sam Billings and Brisbane Heat are up in unison with the caught behind appeal. The umpire turns it down but Spencer Johnson and a few of the Heat fielders are certain that Sam Whiteman got an edge on that and Usman Khawaja does review it. UltraEdge shows that the ball did catch the glove and Whiteman has to depart.

Matthew Kuhnemann to Aaron Hardie, SIX! That's a biggie! Fractionally wider outside off and overpitched, Aaron Hardie gets down on his knee and slogs it hard over widish long on for half a dozen. That came right from the middle of the blade and he gets the distance as well.

This is banged in shorter around the leg stump line, Aaron Hardie waits for the ball and swings hard across the line and fails to get enough of his willow.

Spencer Johnson steams in yet again and delivers this one on a hard length over the stumps, Josh Inglis advances and looks to launch it over long on and the ball comes off the higher part of the bat and goes well over mid on. Neser sprints backwards and takes a ripper of a catch over his right shoulder before sliding in and holding on to it. Perth Scorchers lose their fourth wicket now.

Xavier Bartlett to Laurie Evans, SIX! Clean strike and Laurie Evans keeping Perth Scorchers in it. Very full and following the batter well down the leg side, Evans gets underneath it and with a lovely golf swing deposits the ball right into the sightscreen for a biggie.

Matthew Kuhnemann to Cooper Connolly, OUT! CAUGHT! Matthew Kuhnemann has done the trick and the matchup that seemed in favor of Cooper Connolly has now gone against him. Kuhnemann comes in and spears in a full ball around the base of the off stump. Cooper Connolly gets a bit low to get underneath the ball but doesn't quite get under it properly. The ball is lofted down towards long off where Matt Renshaw settles under the ball and reverse-cups it just over his face. The Heat get a timely wicket and Scorchers now need 54 runs off 27 balls.

Michael Neser digs this one in shorter and over middle and leg stump, Ashton Agar hangs back and looks to force the pull over long on. The ball is miscued down to long on where Xavier Bartlett moves to his right and takes it reverse-cup style around his face. 40 needed now off 15 balls.

Paul Walter to Laurie Evans, OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! Pace off outside off on a shorter length by Paul Walter, Laurie Evans tries to pull it away but finds himself in a very awkward position as he is deceived by the slow pace and ends up slicing the ball.

And that is pretty much it for the Scorchers as the last recognized batter is dismissed. Paul Walter gets a crucial scalp.

Xavier Bartlett to Jhye Richardson, OUT! BOWLED'EM! You miss I hit! And Xavier Bartlett finishes off in style. He executes another yorker perfectly straight to the middle and leg line, Jhye Richardson is absolutely clueless to negotiate that one and fails to get his bat down in time. The ball crashes into the stumps and the hosts Brisbane Heat win by 23 runs. What a humdinger!
