Nice partnership this one for the Brisbane Heat. They were in danger of dera꧂iling themselves.♍ Sensible batting has steered them to victory. It’s not all about the “slog”.

If Sam Heazlett worksꦑ on his spin playing ability, he can be a real asset for cricket Australia in T20 format.

3 wicket on debut for Lewis Gregory restricting to a total are chasing easily. Big advantage chasing in at the Gabba as conditions always improve under the lights if you don't bowl terribly 1st up
