Match 20 of the Big Bash League (BBL) 2020 has the Brisbane Heat taking on the Hobart Hurricanes at the Gabba on Tuesday.

The Hurricanes have had a fairly successful campaign so far, with three wins in five games. Despite their regular captain Matthew Wade not available due to national duties, the Hurricanes batting unit is one of the strongest in the competition. Ben McDermott and Colin Munro complement D'Arcy Short well.

Their pace attack has also impressed with James Faulkner and Riley Meredith featuring among the BBL most wicket-takers. With a well-balanced side, the Hurricanes are on course for a playoff finish although it is easier said than done.

Their opponents, Brisbane Heat have blown hot and cold this season. However, they come into this game on the back of a morale-boosting win against the Hurricanes a couple of days ago.

Despite Chris Lynn not featuring due to an injury, Jimmy Peirson has led the side well in his absence. The presence of Lewis Gregory and Joe Denly would also boost their chances as they seek to complete a double over the Hurricanes.

Both teams look well-balanced but the Hurricanes hold the edge in terms of depth and experience. However, one cannot write off the Heat's chances, especially with home conditions also playing into their hands.

All in all, another cracking game beckons with both sides eyeing the two points in this BBL 2020 fixture.

Pitch Report

A good batting track beckons at the Gabba with some help on offer for the bowlers. There is extra bounce and swing available off the surface for the pacers, who should have a major say in the outcome of the game.

The spinners should come into play as the match progresses, with the dimensions of the ground playing into their hands. Both teams will look to bat first, with 160 being a good total at this venue.
