Brisbane Heat vs Perth Scorchers match prediction

Brisbane Heat will square off against Perth Scorchers in match number 18 of the Big Bash League 2019-2020 edition at Carrara Oval in Queensland on the first day of the New Year.

Brisbane Heat brought themselves back on track after a torrid start to the season. Having defeated an in-form Sydney Sixers side, Heat will be high on confidence and will look to build on the momentum. Perth Scorchers on the other hand, are coming into this fixture on the back of two consecutive losses and now they will have an uphill task ahead of them when they take on Heat on January 1 at Carrara Oval. However, these are the matches that can make you money and that is going to happen if you follow my market suggestions mentioned below.

Brisbanes captain back in good form

Chris Lynn to be top batsman for Brisbane Heat @ 3.75 (Sport Nation)

I am sure you all know by now that Heat skipper Chris Lynn is one of the most destructive batsmen in the shorter formats of the game and the best thing about the Heat fans right now – the hard-hitting right hander is back in form. It has already given their side a massive boost in morale and confidence after their big win against Sydney Sixers in the last game. ‘Lynnsanity’ struck the Sydney Cricket Ground as he bludgeoned the bowlers as he went on to score 94 runs from just 35 balls decorating his innings with four boundaries and 11 humongous sixes. He has managed to put on 109 runs in three matches so far and the last match against Sixers was just a prelude to the storm that is about to send Big Bash League into a frenzy mode. Moreover, he loves batting against Scorchers as he already has amassed 456 runs and maintains an average of 65.14. Sport Nation is offering odds of 3.75 for Lynn and I would only suggest you grab it with wide open arms.;

Jordan flying high

Chris Jordan to be top bowler for Perth Scorchers @ 3.75 (Boyle Sports)

Chris Jordan comes with truckloads of T20 experience under his belt and was a very good addition to this Perth Scorchers side. Scorchers will be looking up to Jordan who apart from one match, has bowled extremely well in this edition of the Big Bash League so far. In four matches he has featured in so far, Jordan has managed to add seven scalps to his name. His figures – 3/29, 48/0, 2/30, 2/13 – speak volume about his consistency. His knack of picking up wickets at crucial intervals of any game and also being economical at the same time, make him invaluable for the three-time Big Bash League champions. Before this tournament, Jordan played in the Abu Dhabi T20 League, and there he picked up six wickets in as many games as well. Boyle Sports is offering odds of 3.75 for Jordan to be the top team bowler and going by the numbers, it looks like Jordan will trump the other bowlers in his side.
