Sydney Thunder

Shambolic on the last matchday, Sydney Thunder were taken to the cleaners by a rampant Melbourne Stars side, the latter racing to victory via a whopping 22-run difference. As they failed to get into their rhythm all through the game, the result was nothing less than they deserved.

Now heading into their second league game, ST must raise the bar higher if they are to stand a good chance of progressing past the group stage. While the Thunder’s openers struggled, their middle order kept their composure.

Pairing really well with Ale Hales in that unit, Callum Ferguson scored a massive 54 runs to lead his side to victory. Also, the spin trio of Tanveer Sangha, Jonathan Cook and Chris Green deserve praise for their work-ethic. Players to keep an eye on are Callum Ferguson and Tanveer Sangha.

Brisbane Heat

Having registered only 125 runs across 20 overs, Brisbane Heat were brought down to bare bones by Melbourne Stars, and forced to head home empty-handed. Interestingly, their next opposition ST also succumbed to defeat against this same MS side last time out.

Now placed seventh on the log, Brisbane Heat must shake things up a bit to pick up vital points in this upcoming contest. With their top-six batsmen delivering a howler, Tom Cooper was the only bright spark, notching up a high-score of 26 runs.

Following their dismal outing on the previous matchday, Chris Lynn, Dan Lawrence and Max Bryant will be looking to rediscover their best form here. Top players to bet on include Chris Lynn, Jack Wood, Connor Sully and James Bazley.

Prediction

These two teams ended up on the losing side last time out, and will be a little bereft of confidence heading into this fixture. While Thunder’s bowlers secured eight wickets, Brisbane Heat could only muster four.

This comes to show the superior quality of Sydney Thunder’s bowling setup relative to that of the opposition Brisbane Heat. Hence, we are counting on Callum Ferguson’s charges to use this to their advantage, to score a vital win.
