Player Story
Jimmy Peirson plays a pivotal role in the Heat squad as wicket keeper and a middle-order batter. Jimmy and his wife Amy are parents to two little ones, Evelyn and William, and for Jimmy, it’s his kids that keep him motivated to push himself to train hard to be a better cricketer. His perfect day would be spending time with family outdoors, or heading out on the water to go fishing with mates.

Brisbane Heat’s indigenous artwork was collaboratively designed by WBBL player and proud Kunja woman Mikayla Hinkley and Brisbane Indigenous artist, Delores McDonald (“Aunty Delly”).
The centre circle represents the Gabba, alongside other water holes which used to be near the ground. 87 black strokes on red earth represent the wickets taken by Aboriginal great, Eddie Gilbert who played 23 games for Queensland.
