The Moises Henriques-led side have managed to deliver consistent performances. Josh Philippe, James Vince, and Henriques have done the bulk of run-scoring. Meanwhile, Sean Abbot and Hayden Kerr have looked good with the ball. The team has also managed to win from difficult situations, which shows they are calm in their approach. Overall, the defending champions are playing as a unit.

Meanwhile, the Heat managed to get their campaign back on track by a 39 run win over Adelaide Strikers. However, it could not keep the momentum going and lost to Melbourne Stars by 20 runs in the following game. Heat have just not hit the top gear and have been guilty of squandering opportunities. Against the Stars, Lynn and Duckett set things nicely by scoring 57 and 54 respectively, but they could not close the game. Also, their bowling has looked a bit of colour, barring Mark Steketee and Mujeeb Ur Rahman.
