Thunder name 14-player squad to face Brisbane Heat

Sydney Thunder have named their 14-player squad with one change as they make their return to the nation's capital to face the Brisbane Heat at Manuka Oval.

Allrounder Aidan O’Connor comes into the squad, replacing Tom Andrews, to potentially make his BBL debut.  

Despite falling short in the first two matches of their BBL|15 campaign, Thunder’s winning record in Canberra speaks for itself.

Most recently, their last outing saw them take down the Melbourne Stars by 18-runs with Sam Billings earning the player-of-the-match after top scoring with 72 runs.
