THE LOWDOWN

ADELAIDE STRIKERS

  • Adelaide Strikers have set the pace so far in the men’s BBL, backing up their victory over Sydney Sixers with a stunning triumph against Sydney Thunder, which saw them set a world record.
  • After scoring 139/9, they bowled out the Thunder for just 15, the lowest score in men’s T20 cricketing history, beating Turkey’s 21 all out against Czech Republic a couple of months ago.

SYDNEY THUNDER

  • Sydney Thunder have revenge on their mind here against Adelaide Strikers, following their embarrassing 15 all out against the same opposition in Sydney, but their form is poor right now.
  • Since that infamous day, the Thunder have lost again, this time to Melbourne Renegades, meaning they have now been beaten in each of their two men’s BBL fixtures so far this season.

THE PREDICTION

The psychological factor of being utterly humiliated by the Adelaide Strikers in the reverse fixture, could work in the hosts’ favour, who come into this match full of confidence and on their own home patch. The Strikers are batting well, whilst their bowlers are hitting all the right spots and although Sydney Thunder significantly improved with the bat on Sunday, this is likely to prove a step too far for them, so back an in-form Adelaide to come out on top once again.
