WBBL: Heat vs Sixers The game is the last game of WBBL legue stage and Heat have denied Sixers a place in the knockouts pretty easily. Here's the points table for WBBL. Top 4 teams will be in the knockouts and all three knockout games will be included in Cricket Pool.

Cricket is a team sport played with bat and ball, in an open ground, between two teams of 11 players. The game, sometimes referred to as the "gentleman's game", is popular mainly in the countries of the Commonwealth. Cricket originated in England in the 1300s and became a mainstream sport four hundred years later. Today, cricket is administered by the International Cricket Council (ICC) headquartered in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. The laws of cricket are set by the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) in London, United Kingdom.

There are three main forms of cricket played at the international level – Test cricket, One-day international (ODI), and Twenty20 (T20) cricket. The Twenty20 format is a relatively new version, introduced in 2004. International cricket matches are some of the most widely watched matches in the world after football (soccer) commanding a viewership of over a billion.
