match top picks
Top Wicketkeeper Pick
Josh Philippe has not been at his best this season, averaging 21.25 runs per game. Philippe, on the other hand, has showed flashes of his form this season, with a fifty and a strike rate of 135. Philippe is a fantastic option for your THU vs SIX Dream11 prediction squad since he can score large runs and has an excellent record against the Thunder.
Top Batter Pick
Alex Hales has been the Thunder’s best batter, scoring 245 runs in eight games. While he is averaging 35.00, Hales’ strike rate of more over 130 definitely jumps out. Because this is Hales’ final BBL encounter before heading to the ILT20, he can be counted on to score several runs as part of your THU versus SIX Dream11 prediction side.
Top All-rounder Pick
Hayden Kerr has continued to shine in Sydney Sixers colours this season, taking 11 wickets in nine games. He’s averaging 25.82 points per game this season and has frequently been deployed in the Power Surge. Kerr also has a 141.98 hitting strike rate this season, making him a great candidate for your THU versus SIX Dream11 prediction squad.
Top Bowler Pick
Nathan McAndrew has been outstanding for the Thunder, taking 11 wickets at a strike rate of 9.82, second only to Henry Thornton’s 9.31. McAndrew can also provide a punch with the bat, as seen by his BBL strike rate of 155. McAndrew should be a top option for your THU versus SIX Dream11 prediction squad, as the conditions favour him.
captain and vice-captain choices
Moises Henriques
Moises Henriques has had a modest start to his BBL season, scoring 113 runs in eight innings. He has a season strike rate of 126.97 and a fifty-strike rate this season. Henriques also has a solid record at the Showground Stadium, having scored 102 runs at a strike rate of 164.5, making him a suitable captain or vice-captain pick in your THU vs SIX Dream11 prediction squad.
Daniel Sams
After missing the last game, Daniel Sams is slated to return to the Thunder lineup. He has been in excellent form with the ball, taking 11 wickets in seven games, and he has also contributed with the bat. With Rossouw departing for the SA20, Sams may find himself in a more prominent batting role. Sams stands out as a good leadership pick in your THU versus SIX Dream11 prediction squad due to his all-round skill set.
