After a bright start to this edition of the BBL, Shaun Marsh has faded away in recent games. He is due for a big knock and where better to achieve it than at the Docklands Stadium, one of his favourite BBL venues, where he has scored 358 runs in eight games at an average of 59.66. He has scored 272 runs in ten games with three 50-plus scores in BBL10.
The leading run-scorer in the recent Test series against India with 426 runs in four games, Labuschagne will look to carry that batting form into the BBL. Even though he did not have a great game against the Strikers a couple of days ago, he scored the most fantasy points from the Heat team for his 25-ball 28 and 2 for 20.
Chris Lynn: The leading run scorer for Heat in this BBL season, Lynn has scored 317 runs in eight games at a strike rate of 149.52. He is also the third highest six-hitter this season with 17 hits beyond the rope so far. He has made three 40-plus scores against the Renegades in his last four outings against them.
Jack Wildermuth: Wildermuth is enjoying his best BBL season ever, having picked up 13 wickets in 11 games. He is the joint leading wicket-taker in the first six overs, having picked up eight wickets at an incredible economy rate of 6.66. He has been striking the ball really well too in a couple of cameos, scoring a 10-ball 22* and an 11-ball 31.
- Beau Webster or Morne Morkel can replace Mitchell Swepson.
- Chris Lynn and Peter Hatzoglou are the alternate captain and vice-captain options.
