Pitch Report

A high-scoring game is expected at the SCG with little help on offer for the bowlers. The batters will look to go on the attack from the very start, with the ball likely to skid on to the bat fairly well. There could be some turn available for the spinners in the middle overs, making for a decent contest between the bat and ball. Wickets in hand will be key, with both teams likely to prefer chasing upon winning the toss.

Today’s SIX vs THU Dream11 match top picks

Wicketkeeper

Josh Philippe: Josh Philippe has tailed off since his early burst in the BBL with the wicketkeeper-batter unable to get going in the powerplay phase. However, he is one of the premier batters in the league and could score some vital runs in this game.

Batter

Oliver Davies: Oliver Davies has blown hot and cold this season. But he has been batting at no.5, which isn't his usual position. He has been brilliant at times against both pace and spin in his limited appearances so far and should score some runs if he does get a chance to spend some time in the middle.

All-rounder

Daniel Christian: Daniel Christian has been the Sixers' go-to player in the middle order, scoring over 200 runs this season. In addition to his batting prowess, Christian has done well with the ball as well, making for a good addition to your SIX vs THU Dream11 fantasy team.

Bowler

Tanveer Sangha: Tanveer Sangha is one of the brightest spin prospects in the BBL, with the youngster starring for the Sydney Thunder yet again. He has already picked up 11 wickets in eight games and with the conditions likely to help him at the SCG, Sangha is a handy selection in your SIX vs THU Dream11 fantasy team.
