BBL 2020-21: Adelaide Strikers vs Hobart Hurricanes fantasy 11 predictions: Top Dream11 picks for ADS vs HBH

The fifth match of Big Bash League 2020-21 will take place between Adelaide Strikers (ADS) and Hobart Hurricanes (HBH). The two sides will lock horns at the Blundstone Arena, Hobart on December 13 from 8:40 AM (IST) onwards. 

Adelaide Strikers are playing the opening encounter of this year’s tournament. Phil Salt and Rashid Khan would continue to be their marquee players, alongside the additions of Matt Renshaw and Daniel Worrall. However, their most experienced players, Travis Head and Alex Carey will miss this game due to their national team commitments.   

On the other hand, Hobart Hurricanes are coming to this game after registering an emphatic victory in the season opener. They beat defending champions Sydney Sixers by 16 runs to open their account in the Points Table. Their regular skipper Matthew Wade would not be available in this clash as well. HBH would continue with the same playing XI against Adelaide Strikers in this game, without disturbing their winning combination.

Let’s look at our fantasy 11 predictions for this clash and here are top picks for ADS vs HBH.
