Brisbane Heat vs Sydney Thunder, 8th Match, Big Bash League, 2017-18 - HighlightsBRH vs SYT, 8th Match, Big Bash League, 2017-18 - Highlights

SYT
All
16.5
4
Lalor to Rohrer, FOUR, slips out. Full toss, slipping down leg and is swatted away. Natraj-like, off the inside half of the bat. Very fine
16.3
W
Lalor to Ferguson, out Caught by Chris Lynn!! Awkward. Very much so. Short, on the face, spongy bounce as well. Ferguson lines up to pull, is made to wait. Loses shape, loses timing and meekly top-edges the pull down square leg's throat. Ferguson c Chris Lynn b Lalor 37(26) [4s-4]
16.1
4
Lalor to Ferguson, FOUR, gets the connection. Finds the gap. Gets the fence. Moves down the wicket, across his stumps and then flat-pulls
15.3
4
Swepson to Rohrer, FOUR, too short. Rohrer makes it worse with his quick feet trekking deep in the crease as he carves it through the covers. Never elegant, but just as effective
15.1
4
Swepson to Ferguson, FOUR, bursts through mid-wicket. Was a sweep, one that never climbed up, one that was flat and one that the fielder midjudes with his jump. What's worse..it goes into the fence
14.2
4
Doggett to Ferguson, FOUR, that'll do. Sets it up with length, never sensible with mid-off in. Ferguson stamps his front leg out of the way, swinging the bat in a mow. One bounced into cow corner
13.3
W
Shadab Khan to Watson, out Caught by Burns!! He can't resist. Goes on a knee, under the inviting flight to go in the air with a lofted drive. Decent connection too, and this was several rows into the stands..anywhere but at the Gabba. Long-off slides, pouches. Watson c Burns b Shadab Khan 56(34) [4s-6 6s-2]
12
Doggett to Ferguson, 1 run, crashes hard through the covers
11.3
F
Doggett to Watson, FOUR, outside-edges himself to a fifty. It's the second fastest BBL half-ton for the Thunder. Throws his hands out at the wide half volley, getting on a knee as well, and the drive is through the slips
11.1
4
Doggett to Ferguson, FOUR, leg-sided bouncer. The angle taking it further down. Breaks the shackles with the glove on the hook, very fine
10.4
4
Steketee to Watson, FOUR, friendly length, allows Watson to sit down, and he gets ugly in an agricultural slog. Long-on does all the hard work of running across, but in the attempt to flick it out swishes thin air over the ball
8.4
4
Shadab Khan to Watson, FOUR, oh dear. He's taken a liking to these leggies. Is also helped by rank half trackers. Another pull, another swivel and another deposit into the fine leg fence
8
6
Swepson to Watson, SIX, back over cow corner. He's putting up a show here. A desperate short one, sits up nicely, and Watson throws in all he has in the heave over
7.5
4
Swepson to Watson, FOUR, waits. Some more. And takes the cut out of the keeper's gloves, getting deep in the crease to deflect it very fine. Surgically delightful
7.2
6
Swepson to Watson, SIX, off the screws. Picks his length, picks his spot in the stands, and connects the dots. An absolute smoke
7
W
Shadab Khan to Buttler, out Bowled!! And now through. It's the previous ball I tell ya. One slog too many, and Buttler without any of his timing is done in with the straighter one. Slowed up, under the swinging bat and making a mess of the timber. Buttler b Shadab Khan 23(24) [4s-1]
5
4
Lalor to Watson, FOUR, overcomepensates with width. The hands stay hard, quick to pounce and is crashed away through sweeper. Ends the five-over revised powerplay
4.5
4
Lalor to Watson, FOUR, the bouncer ends up being a sitter. And pays the price. Watson is quickly up, throwing the bat out, rather violently as he pulls it away through mid-wicket. Doesn't even bother keeping it down
4.1
W
Lalor to Kurtis Patterson, out Caught by Cutting!! Oh the rain has messed around with his mind. Looks to take the attempted bouncer head-on, walking into his cross batted tennis forehand. Barely manages to get the top edge. Mid-wicket couldn't have asked for an easier take. Reverse-cupped in getting down on a knee - truly all Aussie. Kurtis Patterson c Cutting b Lalor 11(10) [4s-1]
2.1
4
Lalor to Buttler, FOUR, hard, up and over. A juicy pitch up, and quickly under it to lift and deposit it straight down. One bounced
0.5
4
Shadab Khan to Kurtis Patterson, FOUR, rank drag down. Oh it doesn't get any easier. A massive swivel, swatting it behind square. The wrists giving it the direction as well, and the misfield helps matters too
