THE LOWDOWN

BRISBANE HEAT

  • A tight three-wicket triumph over Melbourne Stars earlier in the week was a crucial one from a Brisbane Heat perspective, as it keeps them just about in with a chance of making the play-offs, provided they continue to win between now and the end of the league stage.
  • The hero for the Heat was Matt Renshaw, who played a priceless, super innings of 90 not out from 56 balls at number four, leading Brisbane all the way to their target of 160.

HOBART HURRICANES

  • If Hobart Hurricanes want to hold onto their play-off spot for another round of games, they simply must find a way of doing something they haven’t managed to do all season, win away from home.
  • Their latest attempt at victory on the road saw them fall well short at Optus Stadium as Perth Scorchers blew them away with the bat, making light work of Hobart’s 146/9 batting first.

THE PREDICTION

Momentum is firmly with the Brisbane Heat at this stage of the competition with them knowing that a defeat is likely to see their tournament end pre-play-offs. Two victories in a row suggests the possibility of them peaking at just the right time and when combined with the fact that Hobart Hurricanes have the worst away record in the competition, all the stars look to be aligning in their favour here. Therefore, back Brisbane Heat at the Gabba to get over the line and secure another big two points that could bump them up into the top five.
