WBBL: Catch all the big moments from the Hobart Hurricanes' win over the Brisbane Heat at Junction Oval.
Heat vs Hurricanes: Match Highlights | 13:45A clutch effort of 10 runs from the blade of WBBL veteran Elyse Villani from just two balls in the second last over of Hobart’s innings blew the game wide open for the Hurricanes in a seven-wicket win at the Junction Oval.
Earlier, Wyatt-Hodge had put Hobart on her back after a case of Tassie butter fingers looked like derailing the Hurricane’s chances. Wyatt-Hodge said she was confident the Hurricanes could chase the target down after some blistering batting from Grace Harris .“I just kept it simple really, if the ball was in my area, then go for it and just play attacking cricket.While the Heat were far slicker in the field – South African import Nadine de Klerk pouched a brilliant diving catch running back from cover to remove Carey off Charli Knott – Hobart cleared the ropes more regularly with Wyatt-Hodge, Villani and Graham going aerial.
And there would be back-to-back sixes after Wyatt-Hodge smacked Nicola Hancock high over cover – the first of her three maximums – before Lee cracked two more boundaries to complete 16 off the over, taking Hobart to 0-52 off five. The next ball would be pumped through the hands of a cover fielder for another four as the Heat had 51 on the board after six overs.While Harris enjoyed some fortune, chancing her arm on a couple of occasions to just clear the inner ring, she brought up her 50 off 37 balls with another clean drive.
Brisbane were helped by two consecutive dropped catches, and both pretty regulation chances, off Carey and Graham.
