The 20th match of the ongoing 11th season of the Big Bash League will be played between Sydney Thunder and Sydney Sixers at the Sydney Showground Stadium.
In the four matches that they’ve played this season so far, Thunder have won two and lost two to be at the fourth position on the points table. Playing a match after a week, captain Chris Green and his men would be keen to gather more wins under their belt in BBL 11.
Defending champions Sixers, on the other hand, are placed at the second position on the back of winning four and losing one out of their five matches till now. Sixers, who would be eager to extend a two-match winning streak, will be banking on their stellar record in the Sydney derby while also being vary of their dismal record at this venue.
I have always enjoyed playing in Australia and the @BBL, these are different and tough conditions so you get to learn a lot. Really excited to be part of the @SixersBBL. Hopefully I can contribute to my team’s success. #smashemsixers pic.twitter.com/OSj1Js1Cg0

BBL’s last Sydney derby had taken place just over 11 months ago when Thunder opening batter Alex Hales’ maiden BBL century had powered them to 232/5 in 20 overs after the then Sixers captain Daniel Hughes had won the toss and opted to field.
Hales, who had scored 110 (56) with the help of nine four and eight sixes, had played a titular role in a 46-run victory at the Adelaide Oval.
