Brisbane Heat vs Adelaide Strikers at Carrara Stadium will decide who plays Sydney Sixers in the BBL 13 Final on Wednesday. A record-breaking innings from opener Josh Brown has powered the Heat to 214-7. Brown hit a BBL record 12 sixes in his 140 of 57 balls. Brown dominated the innings – only one other man got into double figures – and when he was out, to make it 192-3 after 16.3 overs, the innings fell away as Strikers fought back well.
It is a good batting pitch, but this will be a tough challenge. If Heat can get Matt Short cheaply they will feel confident. Follow our guide below for where to watch Big Bash League live streams from anywhere — and potentially for FREE.
The sides come into the match with contrasting form. Just over two weeks ago the Strikers were bottom of the league, but a run of victories took them into fourth place. Having won the Knockout match, a win today would equal their longest winning run in the history of the competition.
The Heat, however, have gone off the boil. Having been undefeated in their first nine matches this season, they have lost their past two games by 35 and 39 runs. Brisbane have won four of their past five matches against the Adelaide Strikers, though. Overall meetings between these teams stand at nine wins apiece.
Matt Short will be a key wicket for the Heat. The Strikers’ captain has scored 31% of his team’s runs this season, but Adelaide's upturn in form came when they brought in leg spinner Lloyd Pope to partner fellow leggie Cameron Boyce. So far they have proved to be a literally unbeatable combination. The Perth Scorchers looked to have been cantering along towards a victory target of 156 in the Knockout but Pope’s 4-24 from his four overs, and Boyce’s 3-20 turned the game Strikers’ way.
