BBL 2021: Strikers vs Heat preview 

With the end of the India vs Australia tour, both, the Strikers and the Heat will be adding a couple of big names to their rosters. The Strikers will welcome back Travis Head and Michael Neser (provided they can return a negative COVID test) while the Heat will have Marnus Labuschagne and Mitchell Swepson back in their squad. Looking at the table, both teams are still in the fight for the semi-final spots. The table is tightly packed, with the Sydney Sixers at the top with 32 points, followed by the Scorchers and the Stars with 24 points, the Thunder and the Hurricanes with 23 points and the Heat and the Strikers following behind with 21 and 20 respectively. 

While the table is open for anyone to conquer at the moment, this also means that for the Strikers and the Heat, all games going forward are must-win games. The Strikers won the last game between the two sides by 2 runs, just managing to defend their 150-run total. However, they will come into this game on the back of a terrible 68-all out loss against the Stars. The Brisbane Heat had a similar 115-all out loss against the Perth Scorchers in their last game and will be looking to bounce back.
