Brisbane Heat might be tempted to make a few changes to their starting 11 against Perth Scorchers given their heavy defeat in the opener. However, given that its still early days in the tournament, it would be a better option to give the players a longer run.
Chris Lynn and Max Bryant will open the innings for Heat, with Ben Duckett coming in at number three. Jimmy Peirson and Jack Wildermuth will be the finishers for Heat, as they would bat lower down the order. Mujeeb will lead the spin bowling department once again. The Afghani spinner went wicket-less in the opening fixture.
