Brisbane Heat Team News & Playing 11
In the absence of star batsman Chris Lynn, the onus will be on the likes of Brendon McCullum, Joe Burns and Ben Cutting to deliver the goods with the bat. All three of them had a good outing in the last game against Perth Scorchers. Fast bowlers Brendan Doggett and Mark Steketee kept the Scorchers far away from being in the hunt as they took five and three wickets respectively. Leg-spinner Yasir Shah has so far taken four wickets and he will be another key figure in this bowling line-up.

Hobart Hurricanes Team News & Playing 11
D'Arcy Short has been in phenomenal form this BBL and has led the charge with the bat for the Hurricanes. The opener continued to impress with a knock of 42 against Sydney Sixers in the last match. Matthew Wade too chipped in with 41 runs to help the team reach 170. Bowling will rely on the pace duo Jofra Archer and Tymal Mills who took two wickets in that game. Archer is amongst the leading wicket-takers (8 wickets in 5 matches) and he could push the Heat on the back foot early on.

Brisbane Heat vs Hobart Hurricanes Betting Odds
Brisbane Heat are playing at home where they have won all three matches played so far this BBL season. They begin as the bookmakers' favorites to win this game at odds of 1.73 on Betfair, 1.66 on Bet365, 1.70 on Betway and 1.67 each on Unibet and Ladbrokes. Hobart Hurricanes, despite having won five of their last seven encounters against the Heat, are the underdogs for this game. They are priced at 2.34 on Betfair, 2.15 on Betway and 2.20 each on Bet365, Unibet and Ladbrokes.
Brisbane Heat vs Hobart Hurricanes Prediction
Brisbane Heat have the advantage of playing on their home ground where they have three wins in three matches this season. But they will be without their in-form heavy-hitting batsman Chris Lynn who is suffering from a calf injury and this will make the Hurricanes feel a lot better. The Hurricanes have the edge when it comes to head-to-head count as they are leading the scoreline 6-4. The visitors also have the momentum with them after winning their last three games on the trot and so we predict them to emerge victorious in this clash.
Final Verdict: Back Hobart Hurricanes to beat Brisbane Heat at 2.34 on betfair, 2.15 on Betway and 2.20 each on bet365, Unibet and 10Cric.
