Preview :

Sydney Thunder and Brisbane Heat will square off in match 17 of the ongoing Big Bash League on Tuesday, December 27 at the Sydney Showground Stadium in Sydney. Both teams have only each won one game thus far in the tournament and will have to immediately resume their winning ways.

Much was expected of the Sydney Thunder after they managed to reach the knockout stage last time around, but they are off to a nightmarish start this season. Sydney Thunder defeated the Melbourne Stars in a last-ball thriller in the opening match, but things have gone rapidly downhill since then. Their much-touted batting line-up, featuring the likes of Rilee Rossouw, Alex Hales, and Jason Sangha was brought to knees by a rampant Adelaide Strikers bowling attack in the second match, where they were bundled out for a paltry score of 15, which is a record for the lowest ever team total in T20 format. While the batting seems to have improved after that shock defeat, the team’s fortunes haven’t changed, as they have now lost 3 consecutive matches. The franchise also had to terminate the contract of Fazalhaq Farooqi due to complaints about his behavior.


Brisbane Heat haven’t had the best of starts this season. However, after losing their first 2 matches, Brisbane has finally managed to get some points against their name as they defeated table toppers, Adelaide, in their latest encounter. Openers Max Bryant and Colin Munro haven’t been in the best of forms and have failed to give their team the best of starts. Matt Renshaw seems to be struggling a bit at the moment. The squad is sorely missing the services of its most prolific scorer, Chris Lynn, who was picked up by the Strikers. However, Sam Billings and Jimmy Peirson have been solid in the middle order. Billings has scored 110 runs so far, including a half-century, while Peirson has scored a total of 89 runs in 3 innings. The team will be eagerly waiting for Usman Khwaja and Marnus Labuschagne to join them, but both are unavailable at this stage due to international duties. Mark Steketee has been the pick of the bowlers and has picked up 7 wickets in 3 matches, while Michael Neser has picked up 6 from just 2 games.
