Topmost Picks for HUR vs SIX Dream11 Prediction, 53th Match:

Top Picks – Sydney Sixers

• Steve Smith- the right-handed opener joined Ben McDermott in becoming the second player to hit two BBL hundreds in successive games. He will be looking to take the record on his own in this innings.

• Sean Abbott- his figures of 3-11 from 2.4 overs in the last game have seen Abbott go to the top of the wicket takers list for this season. He is in brilliant wicket taking form.

Top Picks – Hobart Hurricanes

• Matthew Wade- the skipper is a very consistent batter in the BBL and hit 45 runs from 37 balls from number four against Brisbane Heat on Friday.

• Riley Meredith- the right-arm fast bowler picked up the wicket of the dangerous Josh Brown in his first over before dismissing the in-form Matt Renshaw later in the game at the Gabba

HUR vs SIX 53th Match Probable winners:

Sydney Sixers have been consistent performers in the BBL for the last four seasons and have a team full of match-winners. They also have more players in top form than Hobart Hurricanes. After defeats against Perth Scorchers and Brisbane Heat in their last two matches, Hobart Hurricanes must now come up against Sydney Sixers who are in the best form of all three. We expect the Hurricanes to give a good account of themselves and particularly expect their batters to attack the Sixers bowlers from the start. However, it will take more than a few sixes to knock the Sixers off their course and we are backing them to get another victory in this game. Considering the team combination, Sydney Sixers is expected to win this match.
