It hasn’t been the kind of tournament that the Sydney Thunder would have expected. They are falling short with the bat in every contest they have played so far.
Contrastingly, the Sydney Sixers have been so dominant, except for the last game against the Melbourne Stars. On the whole, it is so fascinating to watch the Thunders take on the Sixers in the 19th game of this BBL|13.

THU vs SIX: Pitch Prediction
A pretty good batting wicket where the average score of the first innings would be slightly above the 150 mark. As usual, the fast bowlers will get the pace and bounce out of the wicket.

THU vs SIX: Dream11 Prediction
Wicketkeepers: Both Josh Philippe and Cameron Bancroft are so prolific for their sides. This makes them the obvious choices.
Batters: The openers, Hales and Vince, are our safest bet as they can turn things around single-handedly. Also, Jordan Silk’s middle-order batting is what we prefer too.
All-rounders: Henriques, Edwards, and Sams are our all-rounders. Their current form this season has made the choice a little easier for us.
Bowlers: Dwarshuis and Khan’s pace bowling has been incredible in the last few games. They were able to make effective impacts for their side. T. Sangha is our only spinning option, and he is worth it in these conditions.
