The 19th match of the ongoing Big Bash League (BBL) 2022-23, Sydney Thunder defeated Brisbane Heat in a🔯 nail-biting th✅riller at Carrara Oval in Queensland on Thursday.

Chasing the massive target of 183, the Heat batters looked completely out of touch and kept getting dismissed at regular intervals. However, opener Colin Munro ha�𓆏�d some other plans as he played one of the finest BBL knocks to keep Heat in the game.

Munro took the game to the wire and kept his end alive until the final over when he was approaching a triple-figure mark. But unfortunately, the left-handed batter, in an attempt to clear the mid-wicket off Nathan McAndrew, failed to time the ball and Daniel Sams took a sen♛sational outfield catch to dismis👍s Munro. The Black Caps batter ended up scoring 98 from just 53 balls with the help of nine fours and three sixes. Eventually, Thunder won the contest by 11 runs.

Earlier, Heat won the toss and asked the Thunder to bat first. Some vital contributions from batters inspired Thunder to reach a competitive total. Opener Matthew Gilkes (37), Rilee Rossouw (39) and Alex Ross (25) chipped in with important knocks before Sams provided the late flou🐈rish to push Thunder over 180.

Sams played an unbeaten knock of 36 from just 15 deliveries, including 2 fours and 4 sixes, as Thunder made 182/6 in their allotted 20 overs. For the Heat, James Bazley was the star of the evening, picking a four-wic📖ket haul while giviꦚng away 22 runs in his quota of 4 overs.

Top knock that from Colin Munro but the decision to run for the no-ball probably cost Heat the game. Remarkable that only once a 180+ target has been successfully chased down in BBL since 👍2019/2🍸0 season (200+ matches).

First delivery with a fresh,ꦍ dry ball and Munro is caught on the boundary by Daniel Sams.
Big moment in the game, Thunder win.

Well, this Colin Munro innings is a pure example of how numbers sಞom🐲etimes fail to tell the story.
Nothing to take away from him, but he’s equally a contജributor to his side’s loss today with those dot baℱlls during final 10-15 deliveries faced.
Pathetic.

If Colin Munro gets them home from here it j🍃ust proves how dumb the scorchers were to take Evans in that draft. Already a quality knock @TeeeLe꧅w

Wel𒊎l done to Colin Munro. Great innings. Put the team before himself.
Ball change in the last over was pretty rough.
