HEA vs STR Match 46 Predictions & Betting Tips

Brisbane Heat and Adelaide Strikers will face off in the 46th match of the 2021-22 Big Bash League. Brisbane Heat will host the Strikers at The Gabba in Brisbane on Wednesday, January 12. Take a look at the top betting tips from the HEA vs STR match prediction.

We are halfway through the tournament and every match from now on stands of utmost importance. Up next the Heat's will be up against a weak Adelaide Strikers side. Brisbane Heat has been forced to play with just some of its first-choice players available after COVID infection ran through the camp. With three wins from ten matches, Brisbane Heat was just picking up some momentum before COVID derailed it completely. On the other hand the Adelaide Strikers have been very inconsistent in the current tournament. They are languishing at the bottom of the points table with just two wins from nine matches. Their last match against the Melbourne Stars was called off due to the pandemic. However in a match prior to that they played against the Hobart Hurricanes and pulled off a pretty decent win. That was just the second win for the Adelaide Strikers who have been quite off the track in this season. As of today, the Strikers will be playing their rescheduled fixture against The Stars. On the contrary, Heat's will be joining this fixture on the back of a 8 wicket loss in the hands of Hobart Hurricanes. In an earlier encounter this season, the Heats defeated the Strikers by 39 runs. Now as the teams meet for the second time this season, I have assorted the top three Brisbane Heat vs Adelaide Strikers betting tips with profitable odds exclusively for you.
