In the match, Heat scored 212-3 in their allotted 20 overs. Chasing th🌳e gigaꦿntic score was always tricky, and Hurricanes felt the pressure as well. No batsmen were able to score big, and Hurricanes could only post 181-9 and lost the game by 31 runs.
Strong win in Hobart 👊
Our lads may have been heroes again tonight, but the real heroes are the men & women continuing to figh🤡t these terrible bush fires across the country ❤️
