Hello and welcome to another game at the BBL. This is between the Strikers and the Heat. The Strikers lost four on the bounce and then have won five on the trot. The Heat didn't lose anything but have now lost two on the trot. The Strikers have been dependent a lot on Matt Short at the top of the order. He has provided them with tremendous starts in almost every game. Brisbane don't have a batting line up studded with stars but they have been effective as a group. Their bowling attack has taken care of most of the things.
