McDermott hasn’t been in the best of form this year. He has scored 124 runs in 5 innings and has failed to cross the 21-run mark in 3 of his last 5 innings, and we are expecting another poor outing for him.
Only 1 of the last 7 matches played here have seen 14 or more wickets fall. As the Bellerive Oval isn’t the easiest venue to bowl in, we do not expect many wickets to fall.
After their previous head-to-head encounter was abandoned due to rain, the Sydney Thunder will travel to the Bellerive Oval as they take in Hobart Hurricanes in match number 29 of the ongoing BBL.
The two teams have faced each other in 20 completed games. The Hurricanes have won 12 while Sydney Thunder have won 8.
This match will be live-streamed on the Disney+ Hotstar App and Star Sports Network.
After losing their opening game, the Hobart Hurricanes are undefeated in their past 5 fixtures and have collected 9 points. They are currently placed 3rd on the points table.
The Hurricanes will bank on its opening pair of Mitchell Owen and Matthew Wade to give them a good start. While Wade hasn’t been in the best of forms, Owen has played well and is the leading run-scorer for the team.
The middle order has two quality batsmen, Shai Hope and Ben McDermott. Both of them have scored runs at a decent average but are yet to play a big knock. Tim David, who was having a relatively quiet season so far, scored a brilliant half-century last week and will play the role of a finisher with the bat.
The Hurricanes have a strong pace attack that has the likes of Chris Jordan, Riley Meredith, Nathan Ellis, and Ben Stanlake. Waqar Salamkheil is the team’s best spinner with 6 wickets.
Sydney Thunder has 9 points from 7 matches and is currently placed 2nd on the points table. A win here could greatly improve its chances of making it to the playoffs.
David Warner played well in the opening slot and is the leading run-scorer for Sydney Thunder this season. He will be joined by Sam Konstas at the top of the order after an excellent international Test debut in the BGT.
While the middle order doesn’t have any standout performers, Sydney Thunder’s batsmen have put their hand up when needed and have fueled the team’s success.
Oliver Davies, Sherfane Rutherford, Sam Billings, and Matthew Gilkes are all quality players who can perform under pressure. Lockie Ferguson, Wes Agar, and Chris Green are the team’s most successful bowlers with 8 wickets each.
The team winning the toss will likely opt to bowl first.
The Bellerive Oval has been a batsmen-friendly venue this season. The surface is hard and flat, offering a good pace and the ball comes onto the bat. The new ball does swing a bit but there is now alarming movement and the pitch progressively gets better to bat on as the match progresses. The team batting first will look to score around 185-190 runs here.
The weather will be clear with temperatures of around 20 degrees.
Both the teams have played well this year and as we near the business end, they will be eager to keep the winning momentum going. We are backing Sydney Thunder to win this match thanks to a strong opening pair and a well-balanced bowling attack.
Bet on Sydney Thunder to win.
