The Melbourne Renegades won their maiden title last year after heading straight to the final by virtue of finishing top of the group stage table. They had seven wins from 10 matches, the same as the Brisbane Heat, but with a superior net run-rate.
The two rivals met in the final, where the Renegades made 141-9 batting first. Rain interruptions brought DLS into play, setting the Heat a target of 98 runs in 12 overs. They fell seven runs short, courtesy of a superb all-round performance from Hayley Matthews, who scored 69 runs and took 2-24.
