Wicketkeeper

Joshua Philippe (11 Matches, 230 Runs, SR: 127.77)

Joshua Philippe is the best pick from the wicketkeepers category for this match. He has featured regularly for the Sixers at the top of the order.

Batter

Chris Lynn (11 Matches, 416 Runs, SR: 141.01)

Chris Lynn is having a wonderful season so far. He has been consistent and has scored runs at a very good rate. Lynn is unarguably the best choice from the batters category.

Bowler

Steve O'Keefe (5 Matches, 6 Wickets, Economy: 6.00)

The pitch at Coffs Harbor might favor the spinners. O'Keefe could be the deciding factor in the match. He is someone you should not miss out on in this match.
