Betting Tips

David Warner to score Over 21.5 runs

1.85

David Warner has played well this year, scoring 228 runs at an average of 45.60. He has scored at least 49 runs in each of his last 3 outings, including 3 half-centuries, and we are backing him to play well here.

Highest individual score Over 63.5

1.85

Each of the last 4 matches played here has seen at least one individual score of 64 or more runs. As both teams have some in-form batsmen, we expect that trend to continue.

Sydney Thunder will look to get back to winning ways as they take on the Hobart Hurricane on Wednesday at the Sydney Showdown Stadium.

The two teams have faced each other in 20 matches. The Hurricanes have won 12 while Sydney has won 8.

ST vs HH Team Previews

Sydney Thunder

Sydney Thunder is coming into this match after a 5-wicket loss against Brisbane Heat. However, they have played well this year and are currently 2nd on the points table.

David Warner is in excellent form with the bat as he struck his 2nd half-century in 3 matches on Monday. He will continue opening the batting along with Oliver Davies, who is yet to find his rhythm. Matthew Gilkes and Sherfane Rutherford have played a couple of good knocks but the team will expect them to be consistent going ahead.

As Thunder continue to play without Daniel Sams and Cameron Bancroft, Dan Christian has made a comeback to the squad. He put up an excellent all-round performance, scoring 23 runs and also picking up a wicket.

Talking about the bowling, Sydney Thunder has a balanced pace attack that is led by Lockie Ferguson and Wes Agar, both of whom have picked up 8 wickets. The spin department consists of Chris Green and Tom Andrews, who have 12 wickets between them.

Hobart Hurricanes

The Hobart Hurricanes have been playing well over the last couple of weeks and have won 4 consecutive matches as it heads to this contest.

Mitchell Owen and Matthew Wade will open the batting for the Hurricanes here and will look to give the team a strong start. Owen is the team’s leading run-scorer with 189 runs. The middle order consists of Shai Hope and Ben McDermott, while all-rounders Nikhil Chaudhary and Tim David add depth to the batting.

David played a brilliant knock of 62 runs in just 28 deliveries to help his team defeat Adelaide. The bowlers have done a decent job so far but there is scope for improvement. Chris Jordan and Riley Meredith have picked up 6 wickets each and will be joined by Nathan Ellis in the pace department.

Waqar Salamkheil has proved to be the team’s best spinner with 6 wickets.

ST vs HH Toss Prediction

The team winning the toss will likely opt to bowl first.

Pitch and Conditions

The pitch at the Sydney Showdown Stadium hasn’t been the easiest to bat on. The surface is a bit sluggish and the ball grips the surface as it pitches. A score of around 160 can be considered a par score on this ground.

The weather in Sydney is likely to be overcast and there will be rain interrupting the play.

ST vs HH Betting Tips

Both teams have played well this year and there is little separating the two in terms of form. However, we feel that Sydney Thunder has a slight edge thanks to some batsmen who are in good form and a well-balanced bowling unit.

Bet on Sydney Thunder to win.
