SIX vs STR Who will win the match, Today Match Prediction
Sydney Sixers is expected to win this match against Adelaide Strikers.
The Sixers are favorites to win their next BBL game given the current form they are in the tournament while the Strikers haven’t played with a full-strength team and their bowling hasn’t looked convincing. They were completely outplayed by the other side in their last game and failed to conceive any wickets as well. The Sixers, on the contrary, have been looking as a lot more consistent team.
Given the past encounters between these two, in the last 5 matches, Sixers has always beaten Strikers on every occasion. It won’t be easy for the Strikers to get past the in-form Sixers and really need major changes in their tactics to outplay the latter.
Popular Betting Odds For SIX vs STR, Big Bash League, Today Match Prediction, Cricket Betting Tips
Top Batsmen for Sydney Sixers- Josh Philippe (3.00)
In just two seasons with the Sixers, Josh Philippe has demonstrated an immense potential that has already earned him a place in the Austalia Team. His recent knock of 99* unbeaten in 66 balls against the Stars took his side to victory single-handedly as he timed the chase to perfection. In 52 matches he has 1565 Runs with a strike rate of 144.64 including his 430 Runs that came in the last ten matches this season.
Top Batsmen for Adelaide Strikers- Matthew Short (3.75)
Short is a creative all-rounder who can bowl handy off-spin as well. He put up a lone fight for his team against the Perth Scorchers while the other players failed to perform and scored 63 in that match. This season he has scored 124 Runs in 3 matches with a high score that came in the last match against Scorchers. He can prove to be useful with the ball as well which makes him a must-pick for this fixture.
Top Bowler for Adelaide Strikers-Peter Siddle (4.00)
Peter Siddle, the skipper of Adelaide Strikers, is still waiting for his big breakthrough performance in this season but still, he has been bowling pretty well so far. He has picked 4 wickets in 3 matches which includes the best figure of 3/42. He will be looking to improve these figures in this fixture as he has reinvented himself as a unique T20 bowler in recent years, using his accuracy and changes in length and pace to deceive the best batters so far.
1st Wicket- Out by LBW (7.00)
With the pitch of SCG that has assistance to spinners and pacers as well, It’s a doable odd if you want to go big. However, being the chances of that event are low but considering the Sixers bowling lineup has some amazing bowlers that completely uprooted the Melbourne batters in their last encounter makes it a slight possibility. On the other hand, there will be the inclusion of a minimum of four fast-medium bowlers including Peter Siddle and Wes Agar who have seven LBWs in the BBL so far make this event happenstance.
