THU vs SIX Dream11 Predictions - BBL 2021/22 | 26 Dec

Having won two consecutive Big Bash League titles coming into this tournament, Sydney Sixers were obviously one of the pre-tournament favourites in BBL 11 and they’ve got off to a good start as well, just short of topping the BBL 2021/22 points table with 4 wins in their 5 games so far this season. And today is a special day in BBL 11 as it’s a double header on Boxing Day and additionally, it’s the famous Sydney Derby here as well.

We’re talking about BBL 11 Match 20 where Sixers will take on Sydney Thunder and the latter has been struggling a little bit with 2 wins in 4 games so far. However, a win in their last game will give them the confidence they need to beat their BBL rivals, beating Brisbane by a whopping 53 runs in their last outing.

Numbers

Head to head in last 5 games, Sixers leads 3-2.
Last 6 games in BBL 11 – 5 won batting first.
Dan Christian – only 22 runs in 5 games this season.

Sydney Thunder

One of the overseas pros in this team, Sam Billings is one of the may Englishmen doing well in BBL 11 and he got a match-winning 64(27) in the last game after a couple of forties before that, so this wicket-keeper batsman should surely make your THU vs SIX fantasy team. Apart from him, Alex Ross is super experienced in the BBL over the years and so far, he’s been dismissed only once in 4 innings, with a current batting average of 159!

With the ball, they were strengthened by the addition of Saqib Mahmood to their squad and though he came to BBL 2021/22 short of wickets, he had a dream BBL debut, picking a 4-fer against the Heat. He makes our THU vs SIX Dream11 team as well and if you want another bowling specialist, there’s Tanveer Sangha who is yet to go wicketless in BBL 11, getting 8 scalps in 4 games so far. Alex Hales is your x-factor batsman today!

Sydney Sixers

They were hurt by a few injuries including Tom Curran and Ben Manenti and the departure of Chris Jordan as well, so they’ve filled the void by adding Pakistan leg-spinning all-rounder Shadab Khan to the squad, and he’s likely to be picked for this encounter as well. BBL legend Dan Christian has been poor with the bat but his 3-fer in the last game is enough reason for us to pick him and it may give him confidence to get a few runs as well.

If you need another bowling option, don’t miss on Sean Abbott who has 6 scalps in 3 games and with the bat, both the top two run scorers this season are from the Sixers. Josh Philippe has been in great touch with a best score of 99 and 3 fifties in 5 games, while captain Moises Henriques has also managed 2 fifties so far, so both of them are must have players in your MyFab11 (sign-up with code “READAD46“) THU vs SIX fantasy team.
