A day later, though, they did manage to shrug-off the embarrassing display in Sydney by recording a competitive total of 174/6 against the Melbourne Renegades but again found themselves on the wrong side of the outcome. The Strikers, on the other hand, are sitting pretty at the top of the points table after two big wins (by 51 and 124 runs) in their first two games of the season.
It will be intriguing to observe how the Thunder hitters approach the bat this time around, before the likes of Henry Thornton and Wes Agar take the field.

Adelaide Oval pitch report today BBL match
During the second match of the BBL 2022-23 on Wednesday at the Adelaide Oval, the Adelaide Strikers posted a challenging total of 184/6.
Peter Siddle, the captain, chose to bat first in the aforementioned match because he thought it was one of the best batting surfaces in all of Australia.
Despite the fact that the 12 T20 matches played this year at the Adelaide Oval have averaged 156.2 runs, the batters will enjoy their time in the middle at this venue today because the newly installed surface is likely to maintain its bounce and facilitate stroke play.
If the Strikers win the toss, you can expect them to post a challenging score today before the Thunder bowlers.
