10.15pm So, the Hurricanes successfully defend 184 and earn their first win of the season after a drubbing in the first encounter. Heat endure their second loss. It was always going to be a touch chase but were provided with a terrific start. They just lost their way a tad in those middle overs and one felt they left too much, too late. They eventually fell 20 runs short and succumbed to some strategic deficiencies.

Tim Paine is the Man of the Match
