The 15th clash of the Big Bash League (BBL) will take place between Brisbane Heat and Sydney Sixers. The two teams have faced each other at the finals of the BBL last year where Heat outperformed Sixers to win the title. The Sixers will look for some sort of redemption from last year’s disappointment. The visiting side have remained unbeaten in the season so far having defeated Renegades, Sydney Thunders and Melbourne Stars in the first three matches respectively. Heat, on the other hand, did manage to win their first two matches, but were crushed by Perth Scorchers in their previous clash.
Match Details: BBL|14, HEA vs SIX

The Gabba Pitch Report
The pitch at The Gabba is known to help pacers during the initial phases of the game due to seam movement and patches of green grass. However, the ball does come on to the bat as the game progresses. Therefore, one can expect an intense contest of the bat and bowl between the two sides. Teams generally prefer to bowl first at the iconic stadium. However, the pitch at The Gabba can be full of surprises for players at times.
