Big Bash League 2022-23, Match 25, Brisbane Heat vs Sydney Sixers: Probable XIs, Match Prediction, Pitch Report, and Live Streaming Details
The Brisbane Heat and Brisbane Heat are set to cross swords in Match No.25 of the Big Bash League (BBL) 2022-23 on Sunday, January 1. The match will take place at the Gabba in Brisbane.
The Heat, captained by Jimmy Pierson, are languishing at the bottom of the points table with two points and a poor net run rate of -1.083. They will go into the game after back-to-back losses at the hands of the Sydney Thunder. They lost to the Thunder by 11 runs in their previous match.
The decision to field first backfired for the Heat as the Thunder racked up a massive score of 182 for six on the board. James Bazley picked up four wickets for only 22 runs, but he didn’t get much support from others. Colin Munro’s 53-ball 98 also went in vain as the Heat fell short.
The Sixers, captained by Moises Henriques, started their campaign with two defeats. However, having won four matches in a row, they have looked in great form of late. They are placed third in the points table with eight points and a net run rate of -0.211.
The Sixers will go into the game after beating the Melbourne Renegades by six wickets on December 30. Chris Jordan became the Player of the Match after he finished with figures of 4-0-25-2. Left-arm fast bowler Hayden Kerr also picked up two wickets for 25 runs.
