Brisbane Heat had a brilliant start to the campaign as they beat Sydney Thunder and Adelaide Strikers in the first two matches. Since then their form has taken a nose dive as Brisbane Heat have lost three games on the bounce and are currently sixth on the table. The last match was called off due to rain.

Unlike last season, Sydney Thunder have had a great start to the tournament as they have four wins in five games and are currently second on the table and have a game in hand over Sydney Sixers who are at the top of the table. As per our calculations, Sydney Thunders are favourites in the upcoming game.

Brisbane Heat vs Sydney Thunder Betting Odds

Brisbane Heat to have a better opening partnership than Sydney Thunder

Sydney Thunder and Brisbane Heat head into this game in contrasting form. Brisbane Heat got off to a great start this season as they won the first two games but since then they have struggled for consistency as Brisbane heat are winless in the last four games and have lost three of the four matches. On the other hand, Sydney Thunders have been brilliant so far in this campaign as they have four wins in five games and are currently second on the table. What makes this tip so enticing is the fact even though Sydney Thunders have dominated this season they have conceded a bigger opening partnership in three of the last four matches which makes us believe Brisbane Heat would end up with a better opening stand in the upcoming game.
