Aus T20 League 2021 

Match 4, HUR VS SIX

Preview

Hurricanes and Sixers are set to clash against each other in match number 4 of Aus-T20 League 2021 on Wednesday, December 8. Hurricanes had a pretty average season last year and were knocked out of the tournament in the leagues stages itself.  They will be hoping to put up a better show this time around. On the other hand reigning champions, Sixers made a commanding start to 2020 with a massive 152 run win over Stars. They will be coming into this match with a whole lot of confidence. 

Hurricanes begin their campaign amid high expectations. They failed to qualify for playoffs in 2020 and would be hoping to get past the league stages this time with the likes of Matthew Wade and D’arcy Shot in their ranks. The Hurricanes batting lineup looks potent. D’arcy Shot, Caleb Jewel, Matthew Wade and Tim David are a few names to watch out for. Nathan Ellis will lead the bowling department for the men in purple in the absence of Scot Boland and Riley Meridith who are not available for the first few games. The 27 year old is rated highly for his death bowling skills and it would be interesting to see how he performs against the mighty Sixers batting unit.  

After winning the prodigious event in 2020, Sixers started this season in fine fashion. Batting first, the defending champions piled up 213 runs in their quota of 20 overs. Chasing 214 runs for victory, Stars were bundled out for 61, handing sixers a huge win in the season opener. Josh Philippe, Moises Hernriques and James Vince will be hoping to continue from where they left on Sunday. O'Keefe and Abott will lead the bowling charge. Ahead of this riveting fixture, let us have a look at how these two sides will fare out in today’s clash.
