Hobart Hurricanes vs Sydney Sixers & Betting Tips 2022

Sydney Sixers haven’t registered their first win in the tournament yet. Meanwhile, the Hobart Hurricanes won their first match of the season against Perth Scorchers on the 19th. Their attacking opening pair, multiple bowling options and variety in the powerplay as well as the death overs favour Hobart Hurricanes. The team led by Matthew Wade looks in good touch as he was Hobart Hurricanes’ highest run-scorer in the previous match against Perth Scorchers.

If Hobart Hurricanes bat first, we expect a score of 170 plus runs. If Sydney Sixers bat first, expects somewhere between (150 to 160) runs.

Tim David is a major threat to Sydney Sixers. He can be lethal in the middle overs as seen in the previous game where he scored 46 runs off 28 balls.

We are backing the Hobart Hurricanes to win the 7th match.

Sydney Sixers might have lost their first two games against the Adelaide Strikers and Perth Scorchers but there are definitely some positives from the game. Jordan Silk looked in good touch in his 41 runs knock. Hayden Kerr was the stand-out batter for the Sydney Sixers.

In the bowling department, Jackson Bird was terrific for the Sydney Sixers picking up 3 wickets. Sean Abbott went for runs in the second match but he is bound to make a comeback against the Hobart Hurricanes.

Moises and Josh Philippe, the duo who amassed over 400 runs respectively last season will need to fire up if Sydney Sixers aim to win this match.
