Scorecard
Kemar Roach then scalped Darren Bravo without allowing him to get off the mark with the scorecard reading 37. After addition of run on board, McDermott struck again & desmissed Evin Lewis to reduce T&T to 38/3.
Alister McDermott gave Tobago first blow by bowling out Lendl Simmons after a 28-run stand for the first wicket. Simmons scored 14 off seven balls with the help of boundaries before getting out.
Brisbane Heat won the toss & chosen to bowl at the JSCA International Stadium Complex, Ranchi.
"The pitch has been covered for a few days so they would like to bowl first. The absence of giant players affects us a bit, but they have the fellows who can do the job. It is a great experience to play over here as well as a quantity of our players will play here for the first time," said Brisbane captain James Hopes.
Both teams have lost players each. Heat are without Shane Watson (Rajasthan Royals), Mitchell Johnson (Mumbai Indians) & Thisara Perera (Sunrisers Hyderabad), while T&T have lost Kieron Pollard (Mumbai), Dwayne Bravo (Chennai Tremendous Kings) & Kevon Cooper (Royals).
"145-155 looks a nice total & they have the bowlers to back it up. They hope to do well, plenty of our players have played this format. Nicolas Pooran & Evin Lewis are fascinating players to watch from our side," said T&T skipper Denesh Ramdin.
