And yet both sides who won the toss and bowled first collapsed and lost.
There's a lot to be said for scoreboard pressure.

Certainly a talent.
He'll be spending a lot of time in white ball setups going forward (for the national team and domestic T20 comps around the world), not sure he'll play that much FC cricket to push forward his claims to be next in line

Deserved BBL Champions.
Been the best team all season.

Agreed. Can make a case during the season but I think in a final you just get runs on the board.
Unless you skittle them for a collapse, you're usually at best chasing just under par which is still enough pressure in a final to falter.
Just go out, make par and bowl well. That should be the mantra.

Not this year.
Played three games last year, 16 wickets at an average of 22. Played a FC game for Aus A too in April
Only way the Sixers win the game is if Murphy catches the golden snitch

Who would have thought that Josh Brown who looked horrendous all season would be the hero in the two key games.

And the final is a fizzer.
Been a pretty crappy BBL season overall tbh.

Bowlers mate.
166 is solid but very gettable.
Bowling them for probably less than 120-130 is a top performance.
He definitely got them to the final though undoubtedly.

Happy the Heat won. Turned into a quality side over the last couple of seasons. Even with the departures their top 7 is handy and have the best bowling attack in the comp.

How appropriate that the Big Bash would end with Tall Paul leaping to victory

Great effort from the Heat to win this summer's BBL carnival. They nearly pinched the title last year but they've won this one pretty comfortably.

Forgot about Wildermuth being at the Heat until I saw him out there with the other players.
