Adelaide Strikers vs Brisbane Heat Betting Tips

Brisbane Heat to score higher before 1st dismissal

Brisbane Heat were pretty lethal in the second half of the competition. They somehow made it to the play-offs and won several games to finish as the runners-up in the competition. BH scored 10 & 22 runs before their first dismissal against Adelaide Strikers in their two meetings with them. Whereas Adelaide Strikers scored 0 & 2 before their first wicket in those outings. BH scored higher in those games and had a better opening pair in the competition. This season, Usman Khawaja and Colin Munro opened for the team in the first game and scored 66 runs before their first dismissal whereas they conceded 5 runs before they picked their first wicket. Usman Khawaja (28) and Colin Munro (99) average at 30.42 & 30.90 respectively in their T20 career. That said, BH will have an upper hand in the opening partnership for the upcoming clash.

Adelaide Strikers vs Brisbane Heat Toss Prediction

Adelaide Oval offers a true surface that generally stays true throughout the game. Since this is the first match of the season to be played at the venue, the pitch is expected to be hard and better for batting. Bowlers, however, should get generous bounce off the surface as well. 41 of the 69 domestic T20 matches played at the Adelaide Oval have been won by the team batting first. Therefore, the team winning the toss is likely to bat first.

Weather Report

Some showers are expected in Adelaide during the morning of the match. But the weather should be cloudy and cool for the most part. The temperature is likely to remain around the 15-degree mark.

Adelaide Strikers vs Brisbane Heat Betting Odds

BBL 2022 proved to be a letdown for the Strikers, as they managed just five victories in 14 games, failing to secure a spot in the finals. Despite their campaign, they have had few notable performances from batters and bowlers. Top-order batsman Matt Short scored an impressive 458 runs at an average of 35.23 in 14 innings. Last season, the Strikers' top bowler was seamer Wes Agar, who took 18 wickets at an average of 20.27. In the absence of star bowler Rashid Khan, Agar will have a job on his hands this time. Ben Manenti and Cameron Boyce are the senior spinners and are expected to play an important role.

Colin Munro knocked 99 runs in the game for the team. While bowling in the game, they were successful in keeping MS away from the total and bundled them out at 111.
