Fantastric performance by the Strikers - I gave them no chance.

I actually fancy them to play sydney 6ers in the final at the scg.

Tomorrow night. 7.40

Carrara Stadium.

Heat v. Strikers.

Winner to play the Sixers, on Wednesday night, in the Final. SCG.

[Donny]

"After winning seven games on the bounce to secure top spot, the Heat have now dropped their past two and face their first sudden-death clash of the tournament on Monday. After winning the toss and sending the Sixers in on the Gold Coast – where they have been forced to host their finals due to the second Test between Australia and the West Indies at the Gabba – they didn't adapt as quickly as the Sixers to the new conditions.

But with their depth being tested following the departures of their Australian and overseas stars, Heat coach Wade Seccombe has implored his side to move on quickly following the 39-run defeat to the Sixers. "We have another home final in front of a Queensland crowd in two days to reach a BBL Final," he said. "There's everything to play for, we'll be ready.""
