THE LOWDOWN
HOBART HURRICANES
- Hobart Hurricanes one of just two teams still yet to get underway in the Big Bash League until now as Nathan Ellis’ side begins with a home fixture in Launceston in their bid to win the competition for the first time in their history.
- In Ben McDermott and Matthew Wade, Hobart boast two of the biggest top-order hitters in the tournament, with Warwickshire’s Sam Hain further reinforcing the batting order and Chris Jordan providing crucial bowling experience at the death.
SYDNEY SIXERS
- Sydney Sixers held their nerve this past Friday to get their first two points on the board, beating Melbourne Renegades by eight runs, defending a total of 175/6 after being asked to bat first at the SCG.
- Provided the Sixers can put a competitive score of the board, they’ll always stand a strong chance of winning with the bowling attack at their disposal, Ben Dwarshuis doing the majority of the damage vs the Renegades with three wickets.
THE PREDICTION
Due to the distance from Tasmania to other Australian states, it always feels like home advantage is more important to Hobart Hurricanes than the rest of the BBL teams. The short boundaries which we often see in this past of Australia suits them nicely and with the likes of McDermott and Wade at their disposal, the Hurricanes are in prime position to capitalise on the powerplay. As strong an opposition as Sydney Sixers are, the smart move here may be to back Hobart to knock them off.
