Hobson, who was responsible for the run out of Turner, cracked a huge six and then followed it up with a four to secure victory with three balls to spare.

Scorchers players streamed onto the field in wild celebrations after the winning runs secured the franchise a record fifth title.

Hobson finished unbeaten on 18 off just seven balls.

The brave Heat did well just to make the decider.

The team sat in last spot on the ladder just 22 days ago before winning four of their last five games to sneak into the finals in fifth spot.

The Heat then won away finals against the Sydney Thunder, Melbourne Renegades and Sydney Sixers to make the decider, but they started as rank underdogs against a Scorchers outfit hunting their another crown.

Brisbane were even labelled “nobodies” by the local newspaper in Western Australia due to the absence of Usman Khawaja, Matt Renshaw, Mitchell Swepson and Marnus Labuschagne to Test duties.

“Just FYI. We keep our receipts,” the Heat tweeted on Saturday alongside a picture of the liftout that was headlined: “Scorchers versus a bunch of nobodies”.

Those ‘nobodies’ stepped up to the plate and gave the Scorchers an almighty scare before Turner, Connolly and Hobson got Perth home.
