In the post-match ceremony, Mitchell Swepson Brisbane Heat’s bowler Mitchell Swepson was awarded the Player of the Match and he said, “When we came in today we thought it would be a 180-190 game but the wicket played slow. We do a lot of planning, he (Bancroft) has been in great form and a big wicket to get. We (himself and Kunhemann) are great mates, we love bowling at the Gabba and to come away from home and bowl well was fantastic, we are the spin twins. The first game gave us freedom, there wasn’t too much talk, just players going out and expressing themselves.”
