Adelaide Strikers and Brisbane Heat will play in the 18th game of the Big Bash League 2021-22 at Adelaide Oval, Adelaide. We will cover STR vs HEA Dream11 Prediction, Probable Playing 11, and Fantasy Cricket Tips.
Adelaide Strikers:
Adelaide Strikers have won only one out of the four matches and are currently at the 5th position on the Big Bash League points table with six points.
Mathew Short scored some quick runs, and Weatherald is still struggling to score runs. At No.3, Matt Renshaw played a decent inning. Wells and Kelly batted brilliantly in the middle, scoring 32 and 41 runs, respectively.
The bowlers improved a lot compared to their previous performance. Rashid Khan bowled brilliantly, picking up three wickets, and Garton managed to get two wickets in the last match. Fawad Ahmed picked one wicket.
Strikers do not have a good batting unit and are one of the major reasons for their losses this season.
Brisbane Heat:
The Brisbane Heat have also won only one match out of the four and are currently at the 7th position on the Big Bash League points table with four points.
The openers, Chris Lynn, batted well in one match, and Max Bryant has failed in almost all the matches. At No.3, Duckett has not scored for the last three matches, and the in-form batsmen Sam Heazlett fell early in the last game. Tom cooper batted well in the middle-order, scoring 32 runs, and in the end, Bartlett and Steketee performed superbly, scoring 42 and 33 runs, respectively.
The bowlers are getting better at picking up wickets but also conceding runs. Xavier Bartlett, Steketee, and Swepson picked up two wickets each. Bazley managed to get a wicket.
Brisbane Heat has the same problem as the Strikers with their batting unit.
