Big-hitting New Zealand star Tim Seifert has scored his first BBL century, leading the Melbourne Renegades to an impressive win over the Brisbane Heat on a chilly Geelong night.

As Seifert and Ollie Peake ran amok, Shaheen Afridi was sensationally banished from the Heat attack by the umpires in his BBL debut.

The Pakistan one-day captain bowled two full-toss no balls above waist height in the same over. He had 0-45 from 2.4 overs.

Adding to the drama, Seifert was injured while batting - apparently hurting a side muscle - and did not keep wickets on Monday night. Muhammad Rizwan took his place behind the stumps at GMHBA Stadium.

Seifert smashed 102 from 56 balls - making him only the second Renegades player to score a BBL ton - as Melbourne amassed 5-212.

When Jack Wildermuth bowled Jake Fraser-McGuirk for 10 in the 10th over, the Renegades were 3-82.

Seifert and Peake seized the initiative, with the New Zealander continuing to maul the Heat bowlers and allowing his young teammate to settle into his innings.

The wheels well-and-truly fell off for Brisbane in the 18th over when Afridi’s two high full tosses meant he was taken off as acting captain Nathan McSweeney bowled the rest of the over - a nine-ball affair that conceded 22.

Opening bowler Xavier Bartlett was the standout, taking 1-24 from his four overs.

Jack Wildermuth took 3-34, then opened and went for a three-ball duck in the first over.

Munro looked like he might have been building up to something big but was caught in the deep by Hassan Khan off Will Sutherland for 55 from 32 balls.

That left Brisbane 5-106 in the 13th over.

Peirson belted 50 from 22, with four fours and three sixes, before Sutherland had him caught in the deep for the seventh wicket.

Sutherland led the Renegades well in the field, taking 3-33 from four overs.
