BBL: Brisbane Heat's James Pattinson takes stunning crowd catch

Melbourne Renegades took on the Brisbane Heat in the final match of the Big Bash League on Monday and there it was a humdinger of sorts. The Heat opted to bat only to falter early on, with heavyweights Ben Cutting, Chris Lynn and AB de Villiers departing for paltry scores. Matthew Renshaw restored some lost pride as he breezed away to a half-century, helping Brisbane Heat post a score of 154 on the board. The instance occurred in the 17th over of the innings when Renshaw smashed a Cameron Boyce delivery over deep midwicket towards the Brisbane Heat dugout, only for James Pattinson to complete an outstanding crowd catch with his batting gloves on.

Finch joined hands with Afghanistan all-rounder Mohammad Nabi and the duo put on an undefeated 87-run stand to win the game with seven wickets in hand.
