The Brisbane Heat will take on the Adelaide Strikers in the 23rd match of the Big Bash League 2015-16 (BBL 05) Friday at Brisbane Cricket Ground in Woolloongabba.

The Adelaide Strikers beat the Perth Scorchers on Tuesday, claiming the top slot in the BBL05 points table. Former Sri Lankan batsman Mahela Jayawardene's 57 off 37 balls knock guided the Strikers to a 36-run victory over the Scorchers.

"The other times when I walked in it was a bit negative, we've lost a couple of wickets or they kept falling early so I had to make a change. When you're opening the batting, you've got a bit more freedom. The way the wicket was playing, it was quite easy for me to change gears," Jayawardene said after his match-winning fifty, according to the Australian Associated Press.

The Heat has been struggling since the beginning of the T20 league. It registered its first win in its fifth BBL match last week. Now, it needs to win the remaining three BBL games, including against the Strikers, in order to remain in contest for play-offs, according to Fox Sports.
