Sydney Thunders
Sydney Thunders have lost two back to back matches against Melbourne Stars and it is their batting lineup who has been under the pump. Sydney started their campaign with a brilliant win against Brisbane Heat in the very first game but things have not gone in their favor since then. They will hope to do the double over Brisbane Heat and find the momentum back. Form of Alex Hales is an area of concern but emergence of Ross in middle order will give them a huge confidence. Match was played at Gabba where tall bowlers of Sydney like Sandhu, McAndrew might find some extra assistance.

Brisbane Heat
Brisbane Heat have again been hot and cold at the start of the season. They haven't found their ideal eleven yet but this match against Sydney Thunders will be an excellent opportunity to get into real form. The Brisbane team have been dependent on Chris Lynn over the years but his decision to leave captaincy might give him the much needed freedom to express himself from ball one. Brisbane missed some key players like Mitchell Swepson due to Australia A duties but he has now returned which is a huge boost for their fragile bowling lineup.
