SS vs ST Pitch Report

The Drummoyne Oval hasn't seen too much Cricket this season and should be pretty fresh. Batting second on a good outfield and flattish track would be a better choice.

SS vs ST Key Players

Chamari Athapaththu

The Sri Lankan captain is another player who is handy with both bat and ball. She is full of experience and while she didn't get off to a good start with the bat, her bowling is proving to be pretty useful.

Ashleigh Gardener

Ashleigh Gardener has been very impressive both with bat and ball this season. She is controlling her game well and looks a threat, playing a part through the forty overs of the fixture.

The pitch is small, and the outfield is extremely fast. There isn't much for bowlers to work with, and both quick bowlers and spinners have struggled on this track.

SS-W vs ST-W Probable Winners:

It is going to be a close contest between two evenly matched teams. However, there are a few major issues with both teams' batting lineups. Stars' middle order lacks consistency and experience, despite their solid bowling. The hosts have an a couple of in-form batters as well as some experienced players who need a big hit to get into a rhythm. The Sydney Sixers have a slightly stronger overall roster and will start as favorites in our match prediction. Considering the team combination, Sydney Sixers-W is expected to win this match.

The Sydney Derby comes with a lot of anticipation. Both David Warner and Steve Smith could feature in the upcoming game as opponents in a game which may not have much weightage considering the struggles of Sydney Thunder.

ST vs PS Key Players

James Vince

James Vince continues to do his magic for the Sixers. He has been a handy player for them in the last few seasons and is a BBL Stalwart now with consistent performances each season.

David Warner

David Warner returns to the BBL and has a really small window to turn his franchise’s fortunes around. They have been pretty poor all tournament and are on their way out unless Warner can conjure something special.

SS vs ST Match Tips

Sydney Sixers remain favorites unless David Warner can manage to carry his team over the line.
