SIX vs REN Pitch Report
It will be the third game at Sydney Cricket Ground in this BBL season. While the first game was a 14-over affair, where Sixers defended 137 runs against Hurricanes to manage a six-run win, Sixers then also managed to beat Melbourne Stars by chasing a 151-run target in 19.1 overs.
In the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022, we hardly experienced high-scoring games at this venue, while the second batting became tougher in the case of big chasing. In the recently completed T20 matches at this venue, 160 or more totals felt very safe to defend.
Apart from the pacers' strong roles, the spinners also play key supporting roles at this T20 venue.
Toss prediction: Win the toss and bat first.
