Probable Best Performers from HEA vs SIX

Probable best batter: Colin Munro

Veteran Kiwi opening batter Colin Munro produced one of the best innings of this year's BBL after hammering 98 runs in just 53 deliveries in his last appearance for the Heat. However, his innings went in vain as his side ended up on the losing side. Munro is the fourth-leading run-scorer in the tournament this year and will be looking to add to his tally in the upcoming match.

Probable best bowler: Sean Abbott

Australian pacer Sean Abbott is having another prolific year with the ball for the Sixers, having scalped nine wickets in just five appearances in the competition this year. His partnership with left-arm pacer Hayden Kerr has been crucial for the Sixers' campaign so far.
