Caleb Jewell is player of the match for his 76 off 49. It was an incredible game of cricket. Full of drama. Hurricanes produce the fourth best chase in their history and the sixth best ever in the BBL. Heat will rue their mistakes and now have to beat Renegades on Saturday and hope Hurricanes can beat Melbourne Stars in the final game on Sunday. There will be a lot of people sweating on Matt Kuhnemann's recovery from a blow on the right thumb in the field. He is set to be a key part of Australia's side for the two Tests in Sri Lanka which start in 13 days times. Thanks for your company tonight.

10.12pm Hurricanes secure a home final. Renegades, Strikers and Scorchers are still alive somehow! Hurricanes nearly made a mess of it but they get home with the cool head of Matthew Wade after an excellent start from Caleb Jewell and Mitch Owen. Spencer Johnson was outstanding to keep Heat in it but Heat's catching and general discipline in the field and with the ball was well below what was required to win the game.

Sujatha : "What a thriller !thoughts with Kuhnemann ! Hope he is alright for the SL tour "

Shubha : "Jewel of an innings ensures a finals spot for the HH !"
