Adelaide Strikers Form


22-Dec-2023Strikers fans finally got the game they have been waiting for all season long when Adelaide destroyed Brisbane by 56 runs on the back of a 121-run opening partnership from Matt Short and Chris Lynn. 

Short has been a bit of a fizz this season but has come out of his shell with 52 runs in the Strikers loss to the Hurricanes and 109 runs in the win over the Heat. Lynn has also got his eye in with 88 runs against the ‘Gades, 47 against the Hurricanes and now 49 versus Brisbane. 

The Adelaide bowling attack has been leaking boundaries this season, but if Lynn and Short are on fire any total will be chaseable and the Strikers can be a danger.

Sydney Sixers Form


After a couple of losses against the stars and the Hurricanes, with an abandoned  match against Brisbane, the Sixers found their early season rythm with a 14-run victory over the Scorchers last time they played. 

It was the first time the Sixers had batted first all BBL14 and having the luxury of in-form Australian batsman Steve Smith in the order certainly made all the difference with the former Aussie captain hitting his record-tying third BBL century. Smith’s 121 from 64 balls and captain Moises Henrigues 46 runs set an unbeatable 220-run total for Perth.

Sean Abbott joined the party with a 4-wicket haul against the Scorchers bringing his BBL14 tally to 10 wicket, 5 behind leader Tom Rogers from the Renegades.
