THU vs HEA Dream11 Prediction, Dream11 Playing XI, Today Match 9, Big Bash League 2025-26

Dream11 fantasy XI tips and guide for Match 9 of Big Bash League 2025-26 between THU vs HEA to be played in Canberra.

The 2015-16 champion Sydney Thunder made it to the final of the last Big Bash League (BBL) season. But their start to this new edition has been really poor. They have gone down in two games played so far and are the only side who have yet to open their account on the points table.

The Thunder will play their third game of this season and will face Brisbane Heat, who are coming off a record-breaking chase against Perth Scorchers in the previous game.

The upcoming match will take place on Monday at Manuka Oval. The Heat chased down 258 runs with centuries from Matt Renshaw and Jack Wildermuth and will look to take that confidence forward into this game.
