Finally, the time has arrived. One of the most entertaining cricket leagues in the world is finally back as the Big Bash League 2020/21 kicks off in Australia. It’s set to be a long season with 61 T20 matches scheduled between 10 Dec 2020 – 6 Feb 2021 and the same franchise teams taking part as previous editions. One game is being scheduled per day and the action kicks off at the Bellerive Oval in Hobart.
Match 1 will see Hobart Hurricanes in action playing at their home ground and they had a decent BBL 2019 season with 6 wins in 14 games, finishing 4th on the points table. They have a tough opponent in defending champs Sydney Sixers who finished second on the points table last year, with 9 wins.

Numbers
- Head to head in last 4 completed games, Hobart leads 3-1.
- Dawid Malan – ten 50+ scores in 19 career T20Is so far.
- Matthew Wade last 2 T20 scores for Australia – 80 and 58.
- Tom Curran – 22 wickets in 14 games in BBL 2019/20.
Hobart Hurricanes
Every team is allowed a couple of overseas players and one of them for Hobart Hurricanes will have to be Dawid Malan who is coming off scores of 99* and 55 against South Africa and he’s currently the #1 T20I batsman in the world, so don’t lave him out. They have another left-hander in D’Arcy Short but we’re leaving him out of our HUR vs SIX fantasy team because he’s got 3 single digit scores in his last 4 international outings.
If you still want another left hand batting option, there’s always Colin Ingram but once again, I don’t see any big scores in recent games. However, we’re picking him for all of his franchise T20 cricket experience. With no professional cricket being played since the last BBL season, we don’t think James Faulkner will have much of an impact but Scott Boland certainly makes our team while Singapore all-rounder Tim David can be your x-factor selection.
Sydney Sixers
James Vince, Jason Holder, Carlos Brathwaite and Tom Curran are the 4 overseas picks. Coming off a decent IPL 2020 and being one of the highest wicket-takers in BBL 2019/20, the elder Curran is a must have especially since he can bat if needed too. Talking about all-round abilities, we can’t leave out the world’s number #1 all-rounder Jason Holder who will enjoy bowling on these pitches, making full use of his height!

Brathwaite hasn’t been in action much of late so we’ll leave him out but if you’re looking for another all-round option, look no further than Moises Henriques who bowled a bit in the recent limited overs series against India and seemed to look good with the bat too. With 487 runs in 16 games last season including 5 fifties, wicket-keeper Josh Philippe surely makes our My11Circle (Get Rs.500 Bonus) HUR vs SIX fantasy team today.
