SIX vs THU Dream XI Prediction: Sydney Sixers vs Sydney Thunders Best Dream 11 team for Big Bash League 2019/20

Sydney Thunder will take on Sydney Sixers in the 42nd Match of BBL 09 which will be played at Sydney Showground Stadium in Sydney. This Sydney derby is very significant in the current BBL scenario. Sixers are obviously playing better but Thunder would also like to bounce back after their last loss against bottom-placed Renegades. However, there is a rain threat in this game.

Pitch Report –

This pitch is not very ideal for batting. There is a variable bounce on the pitch and it stays on the slower side too sometimes. Batsmen have to play sensible shots on this track.

Dream XI Wicket-Keepers

Josh Phillipe (8.5) would be in our team as he is the best batsman of Sixers with an average of 38.5 and he is a run-away match-winner. There is no competition for him in this category.

Dream XI Batsmen

• Usman Khawaja (Price 10) – Usman Khawaja hasn’t been in the best of forms but slowly he would like to get into his groove. He is the third-highest scorer for Thunder and would like to play a stable knock on their home ground.

 

• Alex Hales (Price 9.5):- Alex Hales shown in the last game that, when he is in flow, he is one of the best T20 batsmen out there. Thunder will expect him to continue his form.

 

• Callum Ferguson (Price 10):- Captain Callum has been the most consistent player for Thunder and is their highest scorer. He is currently the 9^th highest run-scorer of the league.

• Daniel Hughes (Price 9) – Daniel Hughes is back at the position where he plays the best i.e. opening the innings. He has been the best batsmen for Sydney after Phillipe.

[James Vince and Usman Khwaja both are out of touch in the tournament but the stats of Usman are little bit better, that’s why he is in the team]

Dream XI All-Rounders

Daniel Sams (Price 9.5) is the highest wicket-taker of this season so, he is the clear choice in the team.

Tom Curran (Price 10) has been in terrific form this season. He has already taken 14 wickets which makes him 4^th highest wicket-taker of the tournament and he is also an asset with the bat.

[It was very difficult to omit Chris Morris from the squad but Morris has not been in very good form lately whereas Moises is not bowling this year]

Dream XI Bowlers

• Liam Bowe (Price 8):- Bowe has been magnificent in the last couple of games. He is a very intelligent T20 bowler and can be a big asset.

• Arjun Nair (Price 8):- Nair has been the third-best wicket-taker for Thunder after Sams and Morris. He is a very underrated spinner and is a very good wicket-taker.

• Ben Dwarshius (Price 8.5):- Ben has been a regular wicket-taker in middle-overs and at death too. In the against Stars, he even played a brilliant cameo with the bat.

• Nathan Lyon (Price 8.5):- The GOAT Nathan Lyon will play his first game of this season and player of Lyon’s calibre just can’t be dropped.

 

• Match Prediction: – The result of this match is under dark clouds as the predicted weather is not ideal but Thunder may stun Sixers in this encounter.
