THE PREDICTION
If Brisbane Heat are to emerge triumphant in their opening BBL game of the year, they will need to find a way of neutralising this imposing Perth Scorchers top order. Captain Sophie Devine’s top order batting can win games of cricket for the Scorchers on its own and she boasts a capable partner in Beth Mooney. Add South African all-rounder Marizanne Kapp and Sri Lanka batter Chamari Athapaththu into the mix and you have a recipe for success with bucketloads of experience at the highest level of international cricket to call upon. However, write off the Heat at your peril! They have historically proven a strong WBBL team having won the tournament twice in the past three years and their batting does look stronger from a depth perspective than Perth Scorchers. In Georgia Redmayne, captain Jess Jonassen and middle order blaster Laura Kimmince, the Heat boast firepower in abundance, although Jonassen is an injury doubt here. Should the Australian international be passed fit and the dangerous Devine dismissed early on in the Perth innings, then Brisbane Heat may just edge what should be a tight encounter between two teams expected to be in the mix for the title come the business end of the tournament.
