Brisbane Heat vs Adelaide Strikers prediction

Brisbane Heat have lost twice on the road this season but won their only match played at the Gabba, so will be confident of bouncing back at the first attempt here following defeat against Sydney Thunder in Canberra. Adelaide Strikers were beaten at home by Melbourne Stars in a match which saw their bowling fall short following a lower order collapse whilst batting first.

One player who could hold his head up high for the Strikers was captain Matt Short. An absolutely crucial batter for Adelaide at the top of the order, Short struck 56 and top-scored across his side’s innings against the Stars. Short is Adelaide’s best, most reliable batter and for him to be among the runs is crucial for the visitors down the stretch and coming into this next game. Back Short to follow up that half-century with another score of 28 or more on this occasion.

Brisbane Heat vs Adelaide Strikers tip: Matthew Short to score over 27.5 match runs
