Wildermuth will be up against Lloyd Ppe, who would wish to have a strong outing with the ball by picking up wickets in the middle phase of the innings.
Matthew Short vs Shaheen Afridi
The captain of the Adelaide Strikers, Matthew Short, would be backed by his team to lead them from the front as he did against the Stars by scoring a fifty, albeit in a losing cause.
Short will have to face the challenge of Shaheen Afridi, who will look to pick wickets in the powerplay and at the backend of the innings.
Chris Lynn vs Xavier Bartlett
Experienced Australian batter Chris Lynn, who is known for his aggressive batting approach at the top of the order, would want to begin his innings in a similar manner against the Brisbane Heat.
