The Match between the Sydney Sixers and the Hobert Hurricanes will be one of the top-quality matches. While the Hobert Hurricanes have won six out of eight matches in this season of BBLT20, the Sydney Sixers have lost the last two games against the Hurricanes. Hobart Hurricanes have chased 207 runs in the previous game, and they look good.
Moises Henriques’ team, the Sydney Sixers, crushed the Melbourne Stars by six wickets in the previous game, while they restricted the opposition to a short total. On the other hand, in the game, the Hobert hurricane will look different. It will be Nathan Ellis’s team that will put themselves at the top of the point table and try to create pressure. In the last game, Hoberts won by six wickets against the Sydney Thunder.
While the weather conditions will be overcast skies here in Sydney. While the average first innings score will be around 160, the batting first team can reach 180 runs on the board.

Hence, the Sydney Sixers have won the last games, but the team have to face one of the big tests, and the bowlers have to put pressure on Hobert Hurricanes, and they have to go deep and pick wickets and score good runs.
