Big Bash League 2023-24: Brisbane Heat's Michael Neser put on display a performance to be remembered for ages as his all-round antics helped Brisbane Heat prevail defending champions by 23 runs. The all-rounder came in to bat when Heat were 91/5 after 12 overs and ended up notching a vital partnership of 80 runs with Sam Billings, at a smashing strike rate of nearly 200 as he remained unbeaten on 64 off 30 balls to take the Brisbane side to 191 from a situation, where even 170 seemed a distant dream.

The Australian carried the momentum in his bowling as well as he registered the figures of 31/2 in 4 overs, dismissing the dangerous English batter Zack Crawley and Australian left-arm off spinner Ashton Agar.

However, the moment of the match came in the 16th over, which was the first over of the Power Surge being bowled by young sensation Spencer Johnson. The pair of Josh Inglis and Laurie Evans was looking extremely dangeorus and given their form this season, it would have taken anything special get rid of the either batter.

The 'Special Effort' came from the man of the moment Michael Neser, who grabbed one of the best catches in the competition's history.

Makes runs.
Gets wickets.
Takes hangers.

Brisbane Heat's Magestic 2023-24 Big Bash League

Michael Neser was pivotal in Brisbane's victory over Perth Scorchers and has been this entire campaign. With the likes of Spencer Johnson, Xavier Bartlett, Matthew Kuhnemann, and Mitchell Swepson constantly chipping in wickets, and Colin Munro's few big knocks, the Heats have remained unbeaten this season after 9 matches, with 7 victories and 2 matches being abandoned due to rain.

With the inclusion of Marnus Labuschagne and Usman Khawaja in between of their international duty for Australia, the side looks formidable and ready to better their position from last time around, as their miraculous comeback of form led them into the final, only to lose to eventual winners Perth Scorchers.
