SS vs HH Betting Tips
Sydney Sixers not to hit a boundary in the first over
With the slow pitch meaning that batters won’t be able to play their shots as fluently as they would like, the opening pair will look to play low-risk cricket. Their previous opening over at home involved five singles and no boundaries. You should be getting great value for this bet with these odds.
Sydney Sixers total runs if batting first to be under 160.5 runs
The previous home game for Sydney Sixers was a low scorer. The Sydney Sixers only just scraped home in the 19th over when chasing a target of 115. It would be unsurprising for this game to follow that trend again, making this a worthwhile bet.

SS vs HH Team Previews
Sydney Sixers
Sydney Sixers are starting to look like a finals team again. The team is starting to string together performances of disciplined bowling, calm chases and winning the clutch moments when games get tight.
They’ve pushed into the top four on the table, which is encouraging at this end of the tournament.
The Sixers was ruthless against the Stars. They squeezed the Melbourne side to 128 all out. Ben Dwarshuis, with 4 wickets, did the bulk of the damage. Joel Davies and Jack Edwards, with 5 wickets between them, managed to do the business in the middle.
Even when the momentum has been against them, the Sixers have found a way to rebuild and put the pressure back on the opposition. The team recovered from 56 for 7 against Brisbane Heat to win a nail-biter. The top-order batting is one of their strengths.
The depth is playing its part too. Jack Edwards with 35 runs and Lachlan Shaw with 24 not out were key components of a successful chase against the Melbourne Stars.
Things only get better for the Sydney Sixers as some of their Ashes squad members are now available for the BBL.
Sydney Sixers Expected Playing 11
Babar Azam, Steve Smith, Moises Henriques (c), Josh Philippe (wk), Sam Curran, Jordan Silk, Jack Edwards, Joel Davies, Ben Dwarshuis, Mitchell Starc, Sean Abbott

Hobart Hurricanes
The Hobart Hurricanes will be happy with their win against the Adelaide Strikers. The batting unit will be looking for someone to take the game away from the opposition. The previous batting effort was contributions here and there without a match-defining innings.
With the bat, shorts bursts from various batters are what kept the innings going. Four batters made scores in the 20s and Mitchell Owen blasted a quickfire 33 runs. The team has shown vulnerability in the middle order, with Ben McDermott struggling to time the ball well enough.
He ended with a slow 18 runs off 23 balls. Tim Ward with 17 off 17 and Macalister Wright with 20 off 17 were similarly slow to get going.
The effort with the ball against Adelaide was largely more good than bad. The only concern would be the bowlers letting a batter get away from them. Against a better side, like the Sydney Sixers, that’s the kind of innings that turns momentum against them completely.
Hobart Hurricanes Expected Playing 11
Tim Ward, Mitchell Owen, Rehan Ahmed, Ben McDermott, Nikhil Chaudhary, Matthew Wade (wk), Macalister Wright, Chris Jordan, Nathan Ellis (c), Rishad Hossain, Riley Meredith
SS vs HH Toss Prediction
Sydney’s previous home win was after an exciting chase. Both captains would be keen on the idea of bowling first.
Pitch Report and Weather Conditions
The Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG) is generally good for batting, but it can also be a haven for spinners. The seamers will have the new ball at their disposal, and the spinners will enjoy playing on one of the slower surfaces in Australia. Strike rotation will be key for the batters. Both teams average around the 160-run mark at the SCG.
The weather for this matchday is expected to be pleasant. A strong breeze and mostly warm temperatures will be present on the day. The small chance of rain is only for the evening.
SS vs HH: Who Will Win?
The Sydney Sixers looks to be slowly climbing the table after 3 important wins in a row. The team looks set to push the Hurricanes all the way in the race to the play-offs. The Hurricanes has put up a decent showing so far, but the team is far less experienced when it comes to getting through high-pressure games.
Bet on Sydney Sixers to win.
