Sydney Thunder v Sydney Sixers – Betting Tips and Prediction

Refer to these free cricket betting tips. They are based on the form of the players and accurate information from our team of experts.

Select Sangha to Be the Top Thunder Bowler

The BBL 2020-21 has been lined with plenty of quality wrist spin. Among the local talent, Tanveer Sangha has been solid and key for the Thunder’s campaign so far.

He finds turn and generates extra bounce. He is the top wicket-taker for the Thunder this season. Sangha is a great price at 4.0 with 22Bet to be the franchise’s top bowler in this match, too.

Choose Silk as the Top Sixers Batsman

The Sixers batting order is full of really good batsmen. Jordan Silk is among them, but has under-performed in the BBL 2020-21.

This big Sydney rivalry is a great chance for him to perform well. Priced at 8.0 to be the top Sixers batsman, he is a longer odds bet which could be well worth it.

Pick Christian as the Player of the Match

The experienced Dan Christian has won T20 titles all around the world, most recently with Nottinghamshire in the T20 Blast in the United Kingdom.

He is a man for the big occasion and such events in the BBL don’t come much bigger than the Super Smash. Able to weigh in with bat and ball, he is a firm choice to be player of the match at 13.0 with bet365.
