All teams have completed the half-way mark in the tournament and will look to win every coming match to place themselves in the best position going ahead to the knockouts. Brisbane Heat are on a roll with back-to-back victories in last 2 matches and will look to continue their momentum to move ahead in the points table. Melbourne Stars have ended their 4-match winless streak with a win against Hobart hurricanes in the last game. Both teams come off a win and will be high on confidence in this match.

Earlier Chris Lynn and Max Bryant set the tone with their aggressive batting taking their team to 50+ runs inside the power play.

Joe Burns – Burns made 52 runs off 38 balls after he was dropped from the Test team. He will look to regain form with this knock and look to make his comeback with performances in big bash.
Mark Steketee – Steketee is having a breakout season with 12 wickets in 6 matches at an economy of 8.25 RPO. We expect him to take more wickets in this match too.

Queensland has a bright and sunny weather on the match day with very less to no chances of rain. We expect to have a match with no interruptions from weather.
Queensland is a high scoring ground with batsmen enjoying the upper hand. Teams will score runs around 160-180 runs easily on this track. Pitch might slow down due to many matches being played here.
Chasing teams have 3-1 win-loss record at this venue and we expect a new strip to be used in this match. Teams might opt to bat first if played on same pitch as the last match.
Melbourne Stars have a superb batting lien up with the likes of Maxwell, Stoinis, Pooran, Fletcher, and Cartwright who are in good form and rhythm. Heat too has good players in top-5 but might struggle to match Stars top-5 in terms of T20 firepower. Brisbane Heat has a slightly stronger bowling attack with a variety of options and Stars lack a solid fifth bowler and which might be a big concern for them. But we expect Stars to win this match owing to their batting firepower.
