The 38th match of Big Bash League (BBL) 2020-21 will take place between Sydney Thunder (SYT) and Sydney Sixers (SYS). Both the sides will play this clash on January 13 (Wednesday) at the Manuka Oval in Canberra. The game will kickstart at 1:45 PM (IST) onwards.
Both the sides currently occupy the top two positions in the Points Table with six wins each. Daniel Hughes-led Sydney Sixers hold the pole spot while Callum Ferguson’s men follow them. However, the two teams are coming to this all-Sydney clash with contrasting results in their previous respective games.
SYS pulled a miraculous victory against Brisbane Heat after heroics from ace all-rounder Daniel Christian. On the other hand, SYT suffered a 17-runs defeat against Perth Scorchers. Both the sides will have two crucial players coming back from injuries ahead of this match – Ben Dwarshius (Sixers) and Daniel Sams (Thunder).
Let’s look at our fantasy 11 predictions for this clash and here are top picks for SYT vs SYS.
