Must-Have Wicket Keeper / Batsman


Colin Munro - 37

The big-hitting Kiwi finished the 23/24 season with an average of 37.33 runs and a strike rate of 140.88. He’s recently scored a 49-run average playing in the Max60 Caribbean tournament, so if the Heat are to go back-to-back, they’ll need him to be hitting some similar numbers this year.


Must-Have Bowler


Xavier Bartlett - 25

It’s a toss-up between the two spearhead quicks, but Xavier Bartlett gets the nod over Spencer Johnson... just. His impressive form saw him selected in the Australia ODI team where he claimed 4 wicket hauls in his first two matches against the West Indies. Bartlett is in some pretty good form heading into this year’s Aus Cricket season, and a must-have for your bowling line up.  


Must-Have All-Rounder


Paul Walter - 30

The Heat have two excellent All Rounder options however the one to own is Tall Paul! Paul Walter had a sensational debut in Aus Cricket last season, this saw him lead the way for the Heat in GDS, averaging 52.82 points per game. Lock in the massive Englishman All-Rounder for a big 24/25 season.


Breakout Star + Team MVP


Breakout Star - Tom Alsop - 28

Team MVP - Michael Neser - 38
