Brisbane Heat Completes Record Big Bash League Run Chase, Hunts Down 258-Run Target Against Perth Scorchers
Renshaw and Wildermuth both scored centuries in a 212-run partnership to chase down 258 runs, setting a new Big Bash League record, officials said.
- On Friday, the Brisbane Heat completed the highest run chase in Big Bash history at the Gabba, with Jack Wildermuth hitting the winning runs, finishing 110 not out.
- A flat Gabba pitch fueled relentless six-hitting, with Finn Allen striking 79 off 38 and Cooper Connolly 77 off 37 into the grandstands, boosting the big total.
- Matthew Renshaw scored a century off 48 balls but was run-out shortly after, while he and Jack Wildermuth formed a record 212-run partnership, both hitting centuries in the same game.
- Key errors altered the contest as a Jhye Richardson no-ball recalled a dismissal and Nathan McSweeney rolled his ankle dropping a catch, missing Brisbane's batting innings.
- The Scorchers' 6/257 was their highest score and the second-highest BBL total, with commentators Brendon Julian and Shane Watson describing the game as `unbelievable`.
