A BBL Final without the Sixers or the Scorchers. Both Finalists this season have stepped up. David Warner has led by example to get the Thunder believing that they are a champion side. They had to battle though with injuries deraling their tournament as well mid-way. Hurricanes too found a pattern working for them with Matthew Wade floating around the batting line-up and Tim David looking in really good form in the death overs.

Tim David

Tim David has been a match-winner this season. He comes in at the crunch moments of the game and the Final could see a lot resting on his shoulders.
