Sydney Sixers win by 8 wickets with 25 balls to spare. That was clinical. Professional chase from the Sixers. Vince was phenomenal and then Philippe picked up the slack when he departed. The win was set up with the ball. The Heat's batting was dismal again. Steve O'Keefe is Player of the Match. He took the key wicket of Lynn and conceded just 20 runs in four overs. "It was a good all-round performance by the bowlers."

Great win by the Sixers. They move ahead of the Strikers to second on the table for the moment. The Strikers face the Scorchers tomorrow. The Heat can still play finals but need some things to fall their way over the last two games.

Thanks for your company from the Gabba.

Pattinson to Philippe, 1 leg bye

a huge appeal for lbw but the umpire turns it down. It looked really close. Might have just been sliding

Baskar: "It's the kind of players you have in your roster. I don't think there is as much a feeling of oneness and team spirit in the Heat as in Sixers/Scorchers."

hardik: "A little unfair to Lehmann. Australia were winning plenty until the twin bans on their best players. They didn't really start getting better until both players came back. " Lehmann resigned when the bans happened. But he had led the team to an Ashes just prior and won a World Cup in 2015.

san: "i have always believed that Coach's strategies play most important role on team's attitude and performance. when Lehman was national coach, australia was struggling to win matches and now under Langer same australian team is not losing any test matches. Lehman is now heat coach and it is clearly visible from heat's performance."

Strategic timeout. Avishek: "Looks like pitch is helping spin a bit. Why not give Labuschagne a go with one two overs?" Yes, they have two games left after this. But their NRR is really bad and they will need some help from the Thunder or Scorchers
