Match Preview

Sydney Sixers and Adelaide Strikers are two teams with a win and a loss in the early stages of the competition, and a win for either would set them up nicely for the games ahead.

Defending Champions the Sixers thrashed the Renegades in their last outing to send out a warning to the rest of the competition, but they are still trying to find a way to balance their XI following the late withdrawal of Tom Curran and Moises Henriques spending time with the Australia Test team.

Josh Philippe and Jordan Silk were the stars last time out and Dan Christian is yet to play a substantial role but has shone in brief cameos, whereas the Strikers are yet to put together a complete performance.

Alex Carey’s return was a huge boost against the Hurricanes and with him in the side they will fancy their chances against anyone, particularly if Peter Siddle can back up his five-for.

Our Tips

Ben Dwarshius top bowler for the Sixers – 9/4 @ Betway

Dwarshius has long been a regular and reliable bowler for the Sixers, bowling with pace and swing both with the new ball and at the death, making him a good candidate to lead their wicket-taking charts every year.

This season has been no different and with 7 wickets in two matches he has made a brilliant start.

Phil Salt to score over 25.5 runs – 1/1 @ Bet365

Salt is yet to hit top form following an impressive tournament last year, but that is to be expected following a quarantine period after arriving from the UK. He showed signs of naked aggression last time out against the Hurricanes and it’s only a matter of time before he makes a substantial score.
