The heat have the making of a good side but they have rocks for brains
Their batting line up has always been NQR.
You've got the brainless brothers opening, then Denly and Burns who aren't really T20 bats, and that is it for genuine batsman.
Gregory, Wildermuth and Bazley are all decent enough players but you probably aren't picking any of them as batsman or bowlers alone. Gregory might just scrape in as a #6 bat, he is a good finisher if the rest score runs.
If Banton was available instead of Denly you just add a third brainless brother and if Lab was available you just have another guy who isn't really a T20 bat.
Losing Swepson is a big blow as you are probably not planning on him being in the test squad.
