Melbourne Stars vs Sydney Thunder, 20th Match 5Jan2019,Match Prediction,Full FIx Match Report Short sizzles again as Hurricanes stretch unbeaten run he Big Bash League squads for the 2018-19 season have been confirmed. BBL squads consist of 18 players, two of which can be overseas-based players. While each club has to meet the December 8 deadline, they can call up extra players throughout the season in the event of injuries or the loss of squad members for other reasons, such as international selection. The eight Big Bash teams that contest the competition are the Adelaide Strikers, Brisbane Heat, Hobart Hurricanes, Melbourne Renegades, Melbourne Stars, Perth Scorchers, Sydney Sixers and Sydney Thunder. Adelaide Strikers Adelaide_Strikers Adelaide Strikers squad Travis Head (c), Wes Agar, Alex Carey, Michael Cormack, David Grant, Colin Ingram (South Africa), Rashid Khan (Afghanistan), Ben Laughlin, Jake Lehmann, Michael Neser, Liam O’Connor, Matt Short, Peter Siddle, Billy Stanlake, Cameron Valente, Jake Weatherald, Jonathan Wells, Nick Winter The reigning Big Bash champions have named another strong line-up for BBL|08, with Travis Head, Jake Lehmann and Billy Stanlake set to star for the South Australians. Peter Siddle will be a potentially handy option with the ball, provided he’s not tied up with Australian duty. Brisbane Heat Brisbane Heat logo Advertisement Brisbane Heat squad Chris Lynn, Max Bryant, Joe Burns, Ben Cutting, Brendan Doggett, Sam Heazlett, Matt Kuhnemann, Marnus Labuschagne, Josh Lalor, Brendon McCullum, James Pattinson, Jimmy Peirson, Jack Prestwidge, Mujeeb Ur Rahman (Afghanistan), Matt Renshaw, Alex Ross, Mark Steketee, Mitchell Swepson Brendon McCullum will go around once more as the Brisbane Heat captain, leading a squad that looks absolutely stacked in the batting order. Big hitter Chris Lynn is always a threat in the game’s shorter formats, while Joe Burns and Matt Renshaw are top shelf batsmen too. Hobart Hurricanes Hobart Hurricanes logo Hobart Hurricanes squad Matthew Wade (c), Jofra Archer (England), George Bailey (c), Johan Botha, Jake Doran, James Faulkner, Caleb Jewell, Ben McDermott, Riley Meredith, Simon Milenko, Tymal Mills (England), David Moody, Tim Paine, Tom Rogers, Clive Rose, D’Arcy Short, Aaron Summers Last year’s runners-up will look to go one better in 2018-19, with skipper George Bailey taking charge of a talent-laden side. D’Arcy Short, Ben McDermott, James Faulkner and Matthew Wade headline the rest of the team, while English import Jofra Archer is sure to make for interesting viewing. Current Test captain Tim Paine is a big name, but he’s very unlikely to actually don the purple in BBL|08. The Renegades head out to field during the Big Bash League.
