Sydney Thunder 153 for 7 (Litchfield 61, Glenn 4-18) beat Brisbane Heat 130 for 6 (O'Neil 33, Voll 2-27) by 23 runs
A half-century from Phoebe Litchfield trumped Sarah Glenn's four-for to secure a win for Sydney Thunder over Brisbane Heat. Set 154 to chase, Heat never looked in contention to chase the target - they were reduced to 10 for 3, then 30 for 4, inside the first half of their innings.
To add to Heat's troubles, Chinelle Henry retired hurt on 10 after she was hit on the jaw by a Shabnim Ismail bouncer. Annie O'Neil provided some late impetus to the chase, scoring 33 off 21. She was caught off the last ball of the innings, giving Georgia Voll her second wicket and Thunder a 23-run win.
Heat's loss keeps them at the bottom of the table, having earned just one point - from an abandoned game - this year.
Earlier in the evening, Thunder were victims of a collapse themselves: they were reduced to 33 for 4 right after the powerplay, and 93 for 6 by the 13th over. It was only thanks to Litchfield's rear-guard effort - she hit eight fours and one six during her 43-ball stay at the crease - that Thunder recovered. She fell in the 17th over, after which, a boundary-laden 26 not out off 19 from Em Arlott took them past the 150-run mark.
Heat's Glenn took three of Thunder's first four wickets, and finished with figures of 4 for 18 from her four overs. However, she ended up on the losing side.
