The 14th match of the ongoing 11th season of the Big Bash League will be played between Brisbane Heat and Sydney Thunder in Brisbane tomorrow.
After losing their first two matches, Heat eventually registered their maiden victory of the season against Melbourne Renegades on Monday. While they are currently at the penultimate position on the points table, Thunder are just a position above them on the back of also winning and losing two and one match respectively.
With both Heat and Thunder in the bottom half of the points table, they would be keen to win this match to better their position on the table. Thunder, in particular, had lost their last two matches and would be desperate to return to winning ways against an opposition and at a venue where they haven’t done very well in the BBL.
