After 43 matches and over a month of high voltage T20 action, it's down to just two teams in the 13th edition of the Big Bash League as Sydney Sixers and Brisbane Heat will lock horns in the BBL Final 2024.

Sydney Sixers, which finished second on the points table, earned a direct entry into the BBL 13 final following a 39-run victory over the table-toppers Brisbane Heat in the Qualifier, leaving the Heat needing a win in the Challenger final to book a spot in the title clash.

And, Nathan McSweeney-led Heat did exactly that as they overcame Adelaide Strikers in the challenger on Monday (January 22) at the Carrara Stadium on the Gold Coast in Brisbane.

Josh Brown smashed the joint second fastest BBL century with a 41-ball knock as Heat set a target of a daunting 215 before bundling out the Strikers for 160 as captain McSweeney (3 for 3) and Spencer Johnson (3 for 20) claimed three wickets each in the 54-run win.

Sydney Sixers aim for their fourth BBL title and the first since 2021, while Brisbane Heat is aiming to end an over a decade of wait for the title with a second trophy in their second successive final after finishing as runners-up last summer.

Now, let's take a look at the squads, head to head record, date, timing, telecast and live streaming information for the BBL final 2024 ahead of Sydney Sixers vs Brisbane Heat BBL 13 Final:
