THE LOWDOWN

HOBART HURRICANES

  • Hobart Hurricanes currently sit behind Sydney Thunder in the BBL table, but victory here would see them overtake their opponents and reignite their play-off push after three defeats from four so far.
  • Hobart could consider themselves unlucky against Melbourne Stars, losing the toss and ultimately becoming the victims of DLS as the Stars were given a generous revised target to chase down of 67 in seven overs, which they managed.

SYDNEY THUNDER

  • Sydney Thunder haven’t tasted victory since before Christmas, their win over Melbourne Stars being their only one of the tournament so far with half of their games having now been played.
  • They will have been frustrated with the outcome of the ‘Sydney Smash’ last time out with the match having been abandoned four overs into the Thunder’s defence of 152 with Sydney Sixers on 34/1.

THE PREDICTION

Neither side can afford to lose this match as the table begins to really take shape. The batting of both has been disappointing on the whole and simply must improve quickly if either are to start putting positive results on the board. It would be no surprise to see this particular game swing both ways over the course of the contest. Ultimately though, backing Hobart Hurricanes to edge it with home advantage in their favour is worth considering.
