Brisbane Heat wicket-keeper Jimmy Peirson will take on the captaincy full-time for this summer’s KFC Big Bash League.
Jimmy Peirson will line up for his 8th season in Brisbane Heat colours in BBL|10, combining excellent glovework with explosive batting power in the middle order. During his seven BBL seasons for the Heat, Jimmy has been unbeaten in nine of 16 innings, including a stirring 69no from 36 balls against Adelaide that almost snatched victory from a near-impossible situation.
When his side reached the finals in BBL10, Peirson's new-found confidence came to the fore. It had been more than eight years since the Heat had won a BBL knockout match and Peirson, with contrasting but equally composed hands of 47no and 43no, helped them to two in three days.
