In the 14th match of BBL 11, Brisbane Heat will lock their horns against Sydney Thunder at The Gabba, Brisbane. After a break of 4 days, both the teams will be looking forward to end their poor form and gain winning momentum. After winning their opening game, back to back losses have hurt Sydney Thunder and they need to regain their winning track before it’s too late for them.
Brisbane Heat ended their losing streak after chasing the target of 141 in 17 overs. Chris Lynn, Sam Heazlett played attacking knocks of 32 runs, 44 runs to lead their run chase along with Max Bryant, Ben Duckett, Xavier Bartlett. With inexperienced batting, Brisbane Heat have failed to make big scores this season so far.
Brisbane’s bowling unit restricted Melbourne Renegades to 140/6 in 20 overs. James Bazley scalped three important wickets in the match whereas Liam Guthrie, Mujeeb Ur Rahman were economical as their efforts combined bowling figures of 8-0-29-1. Xavier Bartlett and Mitchell Swepson claimed one wicket each.
On the other hand Sydney Thunder’s top order batsmen have failed to give team a positive start. Alex Hales and Sam Whiteman seems to be struggling with the bat at the moment. Alex Ross has been the lone warrior with bat for Thunder.
Against Melbourne Stars, Thunder were 65/4 but managed a respectable total of 151/5 at the end of 20 overs. Alex Ross is the fourth highest run scorer as of now. From three matches, he has 155 runs to his name at an amazing average of 155. His striking rate is 146.23. Matthew Gilkes, Sam Whiteman, Alex Hales need to regain their form to solve team’s batting woes.
Batting is not only the single area of concern for Thunder but their bowling unit has also not lived upto expectations. Tanveer Sangha seems to be their long term leggie after his recent performance against Stars. Apart from Nathan McAndrew, no other bowler is looking settled with his line and lengths whether be it Daniel Sams or Ben Cutting. Skipper Chris Green is looking completely out of touch at the moment.
