Women’s Big Bash League star Suzie Bates received an unexpected note after Sunday’s final in Brisbane that warms the heart.
The Brisbane Heat claimed back-to-back WBBL titles, defeating the Strikers by six wickets in Sunday’s final at a sold-out Allan Border Field.
Chasing 162 for victory after the Strikers made 7-161 at the Brisbane venue, the Heat reached the target with 11 balls to spare after a controlled run chase. Opener Beth Mooney led the way for the home team with an unbeaten 56, repeating the dose from last year’s final when she also made a half-century.
Laura Harris scored the winning run to spark the celebration, just as she did when the Heat upset the Sydney Sixers last summer.
