BH vs SYT Team Previews

Brisbane Heat

Brisbane Heat has not been able to build any sort of momentum this season. Either it's batting misfires or the bowling does not live up to expectations. It is not as if the players in the squad are poor, far from it! Colin Munro, Matthew Renshaw, Sam Billings, and Jimmy Peirson are all very decent batters with a history of success in the shortest format of the game. 

So far, only Peirson and Billings have scored over 100 runs, a total of one half-century has been scored by Brisbane Heat batters, and there is no one with a strike rate of over 140. These are damning numbers and show that Brisbane Heat is in a lot of trouble with its batting lineup. 

The bowling attack of Brisbane Heat has done a lot better. Mark Steketee, Michael Neser, and Matthew Kuhnemann have all bowled quite well. Is it going to be enough to stop an in-form Thunder team when they could not get a single wicket against them the last time around?

We are not very confident about it.

Sydney Thunder

Sydney Thunder can be very proud of its achievements in the previous match against Brisbane Heat. Chris Green, Usman Qadir, and Daniel Sams all bowled very well. They were also very well supported by the other players in the setup. 

They kept Brisbane Heat to just 121 after which Gilkes and Hales aced the chase without any trouble. 

That is the kind of performance that gives a lot of confidence to the team and we think it will reflect in their performance in the upcoming contest as well. Sydney Thunder has also done a smart thing by making Chris Green the captain. He is a very smart cricketer with a CPL title under his belt and is leading Thunder well. 

With Rille Rossouw, Oliver Davies, and Alex Ross also in the lineup, we think Sydney Thunder is a stronger batting lineup. The bowling unit is also in good form and will fancy itself against a struggling Brisbane Heat batting unit.
