At the start of this edition of the Big Bash League, we thought that Hobart Hurricanes could’ve been one of the dark horses of this tournament and while they’ve shown promise, they’ve not been able to close matches, with only 2 wins in 5 games in BBL 11 so far. However, with that win in the last game against the Melbourne Stars, they’ll be slightly confident coming into Match 22 of BBL 11, which is the first of today’s double header.
And what’s better for the home tea is that they’re up against a team which has had a worse season than them so far, in Adelaide Strikers who have only 1 win in 5 games this season. They’ve got a hat-trick of losses coming into this game and will need some inspiration to turn things around, or else the losing run could continue.

Hobart Hurricanes
Right at the top of the order, D’Arcy Short has had a very scrappy BBL 2021/22 with a strike rate of barely around 103 so far but he’s got 160+ runs and has managed to accumulate runs through his struggle, so we’re picking him in our HUR vs STR fantasy team. Now opening the innings for the Hurricanes, Ben McDermott got a fifty in the last game and that helps because they’ve been heavily reliant only on the top order so far.
Their top bowling stock so far has been Tom Rogers who has one wicketless game in BBL 11 but has managed to get 8 scalps in 4 games still and he can bat if required of him, so we’re picking him in our HUR vs STR Dream11 team as well. In case you require another bowling option, there’s Nathan Ellis who has 7 scalps in 5 games but we think he’s going to get better in the tournament and even end as one of the top bowlers.
Adelaide Strikers
The first person you want to pick in your side is Matthew Short who has not got many big scores but he’s managed to become their top scorer so far and bowls in every game as well, so he’s an option for captain or vice-captain of your fantasy team as well. With the ball, there’s obviously the magician Rashid Khan but there’s an added spin option in Fawad Ahmed who hasn’t been among the wickets but he’s been economical and is very experienced.

South African T20 specialist George Garton hasn’t been revolutionary in this series but he was only wicketless in the last game and showed that he can bat if needed as well, so make sure to pick him in your MyFab11 (sign-up with code “READAD46“) HUR vs STR fantasy team. Matt Renshaw has joined the squad only recently and has twenties in both games, and also had a big 156* in a recent List A game, so don’t leave him out either.
