It was the second consecutive loss this season for the defending champions, the Heat, with this defeat occurring in front of 30,122 fans at the Gabba.
29-Dec-2024
Josh Philippe led the Sydney Sixers’ chase with an unbeaten 66. The Sixers scored 142 for 2 (Philippe 66*, Patterson 32) to beat Brisbane Heat, who managed 138 for 9 (McSweeney 34, Dwarshuis 4-32, Kerr 2-19), by eight wickets. The Sixers have kept their unbeaten start to the BBL intact with a commanding eight-wicket victory over the Brisbane Heat.
With the Gabba sold out for the rematch of last year’s final, the 30,122 fans—mostly supporting the home team—were silenced for much of the Heat’s innings as the Sixers’ bowlers tightened their grip, limiting the hosts to 138 for 9. The Sixers made quick work of the chase, with opener Josh Philippe (66 not out) and No. 3 Kurtis Patterson (32 off 20) putting pressure on the Heat bowlers, who often bowled too short.
Philippe showcased his class in his 17th BBL half-century, serving as the foundation for the run chase as the Sixers reached their target on the first ball of the 17th over. Sixers captain Moises Henriques became the fourth player in BBL history to reach 3000 runs.
Left-arm bowler Ben Dwarshuis (4 for 32) continued his impressive form for the Sixers and is now the leading wicket-taker in this summer’s BBL with 10 wickets. He nearly achieved a hat-trick in the final over when Matthew Kuhnemann hit a return catch low and to his right, but the ball slipped through his outstretched hand. Dwarshuis was named Player of the Match and remarked that this victory was another step toward the Sixers’ ultimate goal after last year’s heartbreaking final loss to the Heat.
“It doesn’t quite make up for what happened last year, but we are closer to reaching the final and going further this time,” Dwarshuis told AAP. “It’s been a great start for the team this season. Everyone has contributed with both bat and ball. Josh is in fantastic form, and it really helps when the top order is scoring runs. We are applyingAll the bowlers are doing their part, and for now, I’m the one taking the wickets. It’s nice to receive the recognition.
Jordan Silk made an incredible catch to dismiss Jimmy Peirson•Getty Images. Heat opener Tom Banton (19 off 12) hit spinner Akeal Hosein for six with a daring reverse sweep on the second ball of the match, but the Sixers managed to restrict the hosts to just 24 runs during the powerplay. Heat captain Colin Munro is still searching for his first double-digit score in this BBL season and struggled again before being expertly caught at deep midwicket by Jordan Silk, who dashed to his right and dove to make the catch.
That was Silk’s 81st catch in the BBL, but his 82nd was something special as he sprinted and fully extended himself to grab the ball just inches from the ground, dismissing Jimmy Peirson at midwicket. Nathan McSweeney (34 off 29) was the top scorer for the Heat but didn’t receive much support.
This victory brought the Sixers to eight points after four matches, putting them four points ahead of five other teams, including the defending champions, the Heat, who have now suffered two consecutive losses. The Sixers were clearly the better team in the field, with Silk setting a high standard that his teammates followed. In contrast, the Heat struggled defensively, with Munro and Paul Walter left confused as the ball bounced between them when Philippe skied a shot early in his innings.

Heat opener Tom Banton (19 off 12) launched spinner Akeal Hosein for six off the second delivery of the match with an audacious reverse sweep but Sixers kept the hosts to just 24 runs in the powerplay. Heat captain Colin Munro is yet to reach double figures in this BBL campaign and was out of sorts again before being brilliantly caught at deep midwicket by Jordan Silk, who sprinted to his right before diving to complete the dismissal.
It was Silk’s 81st catch in the BBL but his 82nd was from another planet when he sprinted and dived full length to snare the ball in his right hand millimetres from the turf to dismiss Jimmy Peirson, also at midwicket.
Nathan McSweeney (34 off 29) top scored for the Heat but lacked support.
The victory took Sixers to eight points after four matches, four clear of five other sides including the defending champions Heat, who have now lost two in a row.
Sixers were far superior in the field where Silk set the bar high and his teammates all lifted. Heat bumbled in the field. Munro and Paul Walter were left looking at each other as the ball bounced between them when Philippe skied a swipe early in his innings.
