Sydney Thunder Team News & Playing 11
Most of the run-scoring can be expected to be done by Jos Buttler, Shane Watson and Kurtis Patterson. Watson has shown good form with the bat this BBL and the Thunder will want him to fire against the Hurricanes in this match. Bowling will rely mainly on Mitchell McClenaghan and Arjun Nair who have been quite impressive so far. The skipper will turn to these two for pushing the Hurricanes on the back foot.

Hobart Hurricanes Team News & Playing 11
The experience of George Bailey, Daniel Christian and Matthew Wade make up a strong middle order. So if the Hurricanes are able to eke out one or two good performances at the top, they will find themselves on course for a big score here. With the ball, there will be plenty of expectations on Daniel Christian, Tymal Mills and Jofra Archer who seems to be in good rhythm at the moment. The trio will be backed by the team to bag a few early wickets.

Sydney Thunder vs Hobart Hurricanes Prediction
Both teams have plenty of impact players on their rosters and either side can beat the other on a given day. Sydney Thunder however have the advantage of playing on their home ground where they defeated Sydney Sixers in the opening game of the season. While Hobart Hurricanes do have a better head-to-head record against the Thunder, their top-order batting looks relatively inexperienced which is why we predict the hosts to emerge victorious here.
Final Verdict: Back Sydney Thunder to beat Hobart Hurricanes.
