How can Brisbane Heat reach the WBBL 2024-25 final?
Brisbane are second in the points table with 12 points after nine games and still have a game in hand in their league.
A win will keep them in the final, but they will have to watch the game between Sydney Thunder and Melbourne Renegades closely.
Sydney should lose at all costs, but with a slim lead only the Heat will be able to secure a place in the final straight after the league run.
However, they can still reach the finals after winning the Challenger Tournament (if they came second), Knockouts, and then the Challenger Tournament (if they came third).
