The fireworks go off at the Gabba as the crowd and the Bulls celebrate booking their place in the Big Bash Preliminary Final.

It was all set up with a blistering 76 from Bulls' captain Chris Simpson, with a few handy contributions down the order. The Warriors never looked likely despite a fighting half century from Wes Robinson.

The Bulls will play the Vics in the Preliminary Final this Tuesday at the Gabba. Before that, the unbeaten Redbacks will travel to Sydney to face the Blues, please join us for both games. Good night
