Sydney Sixers vs Sydney Thunder Chance of Winning

Sydney Sixers once again have had a solid campaign thus far, they have six wins in nine matches and have qualified for the playoffs this season. Another win in the upcoming game would all but seal a top two spot this term. They went head to head against Adelaide Strikers and won the game with three wickets to spare.

Sydney Thunder had a great start to the tournament as they won four of the first five matches but since then they have struggled as Sydney Thunder have one win in the last four matches and are currently third on the table. As per our calculations, Sydney Sixers are favourites in the upcoming game.

Sydney Sixers vs Sydney Thunder Betting Odds

Sydney Sixers to have a better opening partnership than Sydney Thunder

Sydney Sixers and Sydney Thunder head into this match after both sides have sealed a playoff spot this term. Both sides struggled in the second half of the campaign but a win in the last game confirmed a playoff spot this season. Sydney Sixers dominated the group stages last season and once again are a win away from securing a top two spot this season. On the other hand, Sydney Thunders had an underwhelming campaign last season but have managed to turn things around under the captaincy of David Warner. Both teams went head to head earlier this season and Sydney Sixers dominated the game as they won the tie with five wickets to spare. They also had a better opening partnership on the day which makes us believe Sydney Sixers would once again end up with a better opening partnership in the upcoming game.
