Australian T20 League 2022

Match 11- SIX vs HUR

Preview

Sixers will face off against Hurricanes in Match no. 11 of the Australian T20 League on Thursday, 21st December 2022. The match is scheduled at the  Sydney Cricket Ground. 

Sixers after two games, are yet to register a victory in the competition. SIX, the three times champions are lying at the end of the league table and they need an immediate win to boost their confidence and climb up the table. The Sixers have lost to the Strikers and the Scorchers before getting into this clash. On the other side, the Hurricanes have one win and one loss in two games played so far in this tournament. 

HUR lost their inaugural match against the Stars by a 38-run margin. But after that, they made a strong comeback in their second game against the Scorchers and came out victorious in the match by 8 runs. They are sitting in fifth place in the points table and a win in their third match makes them climb to the top 3 spots. Sixers on the other side can afford a loss but their current form makes it somewhat clear that they are not in the mood to get down the ladder.
