Melbourne Stars vs Brisbane Heat prediction
Melbourne Stars sit outside the WBBL top four with half of their league stage games still to play, and they head into this contest on the back of a four-game losing streak. Brisbane Heat, meanwhile, have bounced back brilliantly from a slow start to the competition and arrive having won their last two matches.
If the Stars are to arrest their slide, they need captain Meg Lanning at her best. Despite her team’s struggles, Lanning has accrued 202 runs across five innings so far at an average of 40.40. She is capable of big runs against any bowling attack, so back her to accumulate another substantial total, regardless of which team comes out on top.
Melbourne Stars vs Brisbane Heat tip: Meg Lanning to score 20+ runs
