Strikers vs Heat Dream11 Prediction: The Brisbane Heat play their first two matches in quick succession. After facing the Melbourne Stars on the opening day of the BBL 2023-24, they feature in match number 3 against the Adelaide Strikers at the latter’s home ground.
Adelaide Strikers vs Brisbane Heat team news:
The Adelaide Strikers finished 7th in the points table last season. They have been given a massive blow to their campaign as Afghanistan spinner Rashid Khan has pulled out of the BBL 2023/24 season due to a back injury that he suffered during the World Cup 2023 and will need to undergo surgery for that. Adelaide have roped in England left-armer David Payne as Rashid’s replacement.
For the Brisbane Heat, batters Usman Khawaja and Marnus Labuschagne will now not be available as they will join the Test squad for the series against Pakistan. Adelaide will miss Alex Carey and Travis Head for the same reason.

The pitch at the Adelaide Oval is perhaps the most batting-friendly surface in the BBL. Chasing is preferred here, and a first innings total of even 180-190 is not safe here.
Adelaide Strikers vs Brisbane Heat Dream 11 Captaincy Prediction:
D’Arcy Short seems like a safe Dream 11 captaincy option for this game. Short likes to play the anchor role and hold his end. He is also expected to bowl a couple of overs of his leg-spin.
