Wicket. OUT! Run Out. Courtney Sippel to Lauren Smith. Length ball, Slog, missed, fielded by Redmayne. The Heat advance to The Challenger with relative ease after a comfortable 44 run win. Miserly spells from Hancock and Sippel played a big part in defending their total of 169, the Thunder falling behind the rate early and never really recovering. Grace Harris and Amelia Kerr set up the win with a fast start with the bat, both falling just short of 50. Kerr picked up a wicket as well to earn Player of the Match honours. Back here same time tomorrow where the Heat will face the Scorchers for a place in the WBBL|09 Final.
