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.

The stage has been set for an exciting final between the Hobart Hurricanes and Sydney Thunder. Both teams are in excellent form heading into this match. The Hurricanes have taken four of their last five contests, while the Thunder have won three in their last five full matches, two of which were abandoned due to rain. When these two sides last met, the Hurricanes won convincingly by six wickets. Considering the team combination, Hobart Hurricanes is expected to win this match.

A fixture which has a handful of veterans such as David Warner, Matthew Wade and Dan Christian was washed away earlier and now the teams will be hoping to get back out and enjoy a good game of Cricket. Both sides are coming in with a good run of results but will also be hoping that this is not a case of peaking too early which is something that happens often.

David Warner

With injuries in the camp, David Warner has added responsibility on him. At his best he can win games on his own for certain and glimpses of a return to form has been on show this season.

Nathan Ellis

Captain Nathan Ellis fought alone in the first game. He got runs down the order to get Hobart at least above 50 but the overall performance from his teammates was pretty poor. He is leading from the front and his performances could inspire his teammates to support and build.

The Sydney Thunder Women are off to a bad start. Their batting arrangement failed to carry out its strategy and requires a new approach in this game. The team expects the top and middle order to perform well and earn their initial points.

Considering the team combination, Sydney Thunder-W is expected to win this match.

It's the first leg of the Women's Big Bash League 2024, and the Hobart Hurricanes Women will face the Sydney Thunder Women in the fourth game.

The Hurricanes were eliminated in the first round the previous year, while the Sydney Thunder Women eliminated in the Eliminator and hope to start the tournament well. The Hobart Hurricanes Women were one of the tournament's most inconsistent teams. With new players joining the team, the batting lineup appears to be weak, and it remains to be seen whether they will perform well.
