Phew, breathless stuff. Baz ignited the 200 chase with a flurry of boundaries, bringing up his half-century off only 18 balls. The spinners - Hogg and Narine - and Thisara, with his cutters, then applied the brakes on Heat. Off his next 22 balls, Baz only managed 14 before holing out off Perera. Ben Cutting and Joe Burns then made cameos but Heat collapsed, losing six wickets in the last three overs. Credit to Harriott and Rimmington for keeping their head when Renegades' season was on the line. That is all we have for you. Do come back for the double-header tomorrow. Until then, goodbye and good night.

MB: "3 wickets, 2 runouts, 4 wides, 2 sixes. All in 1 over."

Rimmington to Steketee, 1 wide, OUT, what a bizarre finish! Off-side wide, and Swepson is run-out at the non-striker's end. The Renegades stay alive.... just. Very full and wide outside off, near yorker, but past the tram-line again. Steketee and Swepson look to scamper across for the bye. But there's a mix-up, under pressure. Harriott the debutant keeper, though, keeps his head and throws it to the bowler, who runs back up to the stumps and catches Swepson short. Drama, drama, drama in Brisbane, and the hosts finish at the wrong end of it

MJ Swepson run out 0 (0b 0x4 0x6) SR: -

Heat need 3 off the last ball. The season is on the line for the Renegades. Finch walks up to his bowler and chats with him.
