5:20 pm local: Brisbane Heat are sitting pretty at the top of the table and a win tonight at the Gabba will seal their place in the playoffs. Things aren't rosy for the Hurricanes though, they're presently 5th in the table and can't afford too many more losses. But they're coming into the match with two back-to-back wins, albeit against teams lower than them in the points table and will have to show the same kind of performance against a rampaging Heat unit. It's a cloudy day in Brisbane, but we don't expect any rain. Bat flip and team sheets coming up shortly..
