Brisbane Heat

This article is about the men's team. For the women's team, see Brisbane Heat (WBBL).

The Brisbane Heat are an Australian professional franchise men's and women's cricket team, competing in Australia's domestic Twenty20 cricket competition, the Big Bash League (BBL). The Heat are the successors of the Queensland Bulls who played in the now-defunct KFC Twenty20 Big Bash. The Heat wear a teal uniform and are based in Brisbane in the Australian state Queensland. Their home ground is the Brisbane Cricket Ground, also known as The Gabba. The inaugural coach was Darren Lehmann who was the assistant to head coach Wade Seccombe,[1] who then stepped down after winning the BBL13 title. Leading up to the start of the (BBL14) season, Johan Botha was appointed the Heat's head coach. The Heat's inaugural captain was Australian ODI batter Peter Forrest. Internationals Usman Khawaja, Chris Lynn, Brendon McCullum, Colin Munro and Daniel Vettori have also captained the team.[2][3][4]
