Broncos revise lineup for round 2

After a disastrous outing against the Sydney Ferrets, Coach Wilson makes 4 changes to side which was thrashed 1413-628 in round 1. Wilson has replaced Thunder all rounder Jason Floros with Renegades all rounder Aaron O'Brien after a solid performance on Friday night, Jason Berendorff has been terminated after failing to appear to play last night, his contract taken by promising Sydney Sixers' quick Luke Feldman, and Scott Coyte has been replaced with Chris Tremain.

Marquee recruit Chris Gayle comes back into the team after missing round 1 with international duties, replacing Jonathan Wells at no 3, Luke Wright takes over the captaincy from David Hussey.

Side is as Follows

D. Hussey
Gibbs
Gayle
Maddinson
O'Brien
Wright (c)
Haddin (wk)
Feldman
Tremain
McKay
Hogg

Wells
