Live Cricket Score of Sydney Sixers vs Brisbane Heat, 26th Match at Sydney

Brisbane Heat and Sydney Sixers, who are languishing at the bottom of the points table, will look for a big win when they lock horns in Sydney. Sixers still have a slim chance of making it into the semi-finals. However, after losing three games in a row, they need to get back to winning ways. On the other hand, despite getting knocked out, Heat will want to secure a win to climb above Sixers in the table.

Heat have never usurped Sixers in the history of BBL. They would look to correct that record this time. However, for that to happen, they need someone to support Chris Lynn. Lynn has shored up the batting for Heat time and again.

Brisbane Heat have won the toss and opted to bat first.

It has been a fascinating start to the game. Peirson, who has been in prime form this season, cleared his front leg and flat-batted the pull that flew over the deep mid-wicket fence for a maximum. It was a monstrous six that hit the roof! The six was measured at 114 metres. However, Peirson got carried away and again tried to thump Bird, but could only slice it to Bollinger at point and lost his wicket. Peirson would be a disappointed man as he looked set to amass a big score.

More action in the middle. Chris Lynn, the lynchpin of Brisbane's batting line-up, has been chugged down by Doug Bollinger. Lynn pulled Bollinger right off the screws of the bat. However, Michal Lumb raced across the circumference in the deep and snaffled the catch. He also showed admirable balance to make sure that the ball won't pop out of his hand. It was a meaty blow by Lynn, but he could have rolled his wrists and looked to keep it down.
