Brisbane Heat will take on Adelaide Strikers in the 46th match of the Big Bash League 2021 at the Gabba, Brisbane.
HEA VS STR Match Preview
The Brisbane Heat will play in this match after losing by 8
wickets to the Hobart Hurricanes in their previous match, putting them in fifth
place in the BBL points standings. They had to make multiple changes in their
squad due to the pandemic crisis, which may have been one of the causes for
their loss, but they will now hope to make a good return in this matchup and
increase their ranks.
The Adelaide Strikers, on the other hand, are having a
difficult season, with only two victories in ten games and 13 points at the
bottom of the BBL points table. They were defeated by Melbourne Stars by 5
wickets in their most recent match and will now seek their third victory in
this struggle to revenge their past defeats.
