Brisbane Heat players to watch
Spencer Johnson
Spencer Johnson’s stellar BBL13 season helped the Brisbane Heat to their first BBL title in over a decade. He took 19 wickets in 11 matches, with a best of 4/26 and an economy rate of just over seven runs per over. Johnson will be the spearhead once again as the Heat attempt to win back-to-back titles, while he looms as a great smokey to finish with the most wickets in BBL14.
Xavier Bartlett
Xavier Bartlett’s improvement throughout the BBL13 season also got him a call-up to the Australian white ball side, and also has him in the frame for possible Test selection in the coming years. A very different style of bowler to Johnson, Bartlett’s accuracy and control of swing makes him very difficult to score from. He will be the perfect new ball partner for Johnson at Brisbane this season.
Matthew Kuhnemann
Matthew Kuhnemann has become the frontline spinner for the Heat after taking 10 wickets last season with an extremely safe economy rate of 6.57 runs per over. He’s an accurate bowler with several subtle variations, helping to limit scoring opportunities and build pressure on opposition batters. Left-arm spinners are invaluable in T20 cricket, and Kuhnemann is no exception.
Brisbane Heat futures betting
The Brisbane heat are $5.50 chances to go back-to-back and win the BBL14 competition. After losing devastating top-order batter Josh Brown, the club will be relying on their experienced players to score enough runs for their side’s bowlers to defend. The bowling attack has only improved in the offseason, which will be a daunting prospect for other BBL teams.
Brisbane Heat batting tips
Nathan McSweeney scored over 200 runs at an average of 27.75 in BBL13, including some key innings at pivotal times. The 25-year-old will only continue to mature, but the key to his game will be developing the power to find and clear the boundary more regularly. If he can do this, McSweeney can lead the Heat in scoring this season.
Brisbane Heat bowling tips
Spencer Johnson is the obvious selection as top bowler for the Heat in BBL14. His height, speed, and ability to swing the ball put batters on the back foot immediately, leading to dot balls and plenty of wickets. Johnson’s biggest challenge this season will be remaining injury-free.
Brisbane Heat all-time XI
- Brendan McCullum
- Matthew Hayden
- Luke Pomersbach
- Chris Lynn
- Peter Forrest
- Jimmy Peirson
- Dan Christian
- Ben Cutting
- Mitchell Swepson
- Mark Steketee
- Mujeeb Ur Rahman
The international star power and experience of this Heat All-Time XI are unlike most in the BBL’s history. With a batting order of Brendon McCullum, Matthew Hayden, Luke Pomersbach and Chris Lynn, only two batters would need to get a start for a 200-plus total to be on the cards. Supported by wicketkeeper Jimmy Peirson and all-rounders Dan Christian and Ben Cutting, the Heat have incredible depth in their batting.
Christian and Cutting are also exceptional bowlers in their own right, with Mark Steketee taking the new ball, while Mitch Swepson and Mujeeb Ur Rahman round out an incredible XI for the Heat.
