Brisbane Heat vs Sydney Sixers at Carrara Stadium is a sold-out clash for a place in the BBL 13 Final on January 24. The winners of this Qualifier, between the league’s top two, will play final hosts. The loser gets a second bite of the cherry as the home side against the winner of tomorrow's 3rd vs 4th clash.

The Heat come into the match on the back of a defeat, their sole one of the group stage, going down by 35 runs to Perth Scorchers. The Sixers have three successive victories under their belts, including their dramatic last-ball win against the very same Scorchers who have themselves grabbed a spot in the 3rd vs 4th playoff.
This is the third meeting between Heat and Sixers this season. The first was rained off. The second was curtailed by the weather too, with Heat coming out winners by 3 runs using the DLS method.
Both sides’ squad depth will be tested as Brisbane will be without overseas players Colin Munro and Sam Billings, who have left for the UAE T20, and captain Usman Khawaja and Marnus Labuschagne, who are playing in the test match in Adelaide (and hence why this Qualifier is not being held at the Adelaide Oval.) But Matt Renshaw has been released from the test squad to play.
The Syndey will be without their overseas players James Vince, to the UAE T20; Tom Curran, to injury; and Steve Smith, who is playing for Australia.
The two times these side have met at Carrara, the Sixers have triumphed. Below are all the details to get a Heat vs Sixers live stream, and how to watch every ball of BBL 13 live online.
