It is worth noting that Brisbane is currently suffering at the bottom of the BBL 12 points standings. BH will be anxious to beat SS at home for the second time in precisely two years, having dropped a pair of games on each side of their lone triumph this season. Meanwhile, Sydney is in third place after two consecutive losses were followed by four straight triumphs.
The famous Gabba has seen the hosts Heat win 20 and lose 31 of their 52 home matches throughout the years. Sixers, on the other hand, have won seven and lost one of their first eight Brisbane T20s.
