THE LOWDOWN

SYDNEY SIXERS

• There is plenty of excitement regarding the Sydney Sixers this year and understandably so with their core of domestic players still as strong as ever, the likes of Moises Henriques, Jordan Silk, Sean Abbott and Josh Philippe forming an intimidating spine.
• Overseas signing Rehan Ahmed pulled out due to his England commitments after being signed at the draft, whilst James Vince may not appear initially for the Sixers as he competes in the Abu Dhabi T10 competition.

MELBOURNE RENEGADES

• Melbourne Renegades have made some major moves in a bid to reverse their long-standing BBL failings and it will be interesting to see the effect it has on a team who have won the tournament just once.
• The addition of Australia’s star leg-spinner Adam Zampa from the Stars was arguably the most notable transfer of the off-season and that has been reinforced by the addition of wicket-keeper-batter Quinton de Kock as an overseas player.

THE PREDICTION

Although Melbourne Renegades look well-set on paper for a positive campaign, it may take time for them to really gel as a team with the changes that they have made. Sydney Sixers are far more of a ready-made unit with many players who have tasted success together, so it’s more likely that they will hit the ground running compared to their opponents. With that in mind, back the Sixers to pick up the points in this one.
