When: Tuesday, 14th January at 3:40PM
Where: The Gabba
Bet: Bet On This Match HERE
Preview:
The legendary A.B. De Villiers has arrived in Brisbane and this will be the first match that we see the South African in a Heat jersey. There is of course enormous hype surrounding his debut and a player of his calibre is expected to stand up immediately, but I am more than happy to steer clear of any of his personal player markets in this match, with a view towards next time.
The Strikers snapped a three-game losing streak against the winless Renegades on Sunday, but they would need to improve noticeably to repeat that result here.
