BJ speaking sense for once, no batting depth there and Abbott is their best bowler probably and he goes and does that.
Sixers need 148 off 20 overs
Change of innings odds: Sixers 1.22 v 4.90 Adelaide
If Adelaide defend this it will be the 3rd time a score of 147 or less has been defended at the SCG in a BBL game.

BOOOM
If you could fill your team with 11 Sean Abbott’s , you’d go close to winning the title. [image]
Sean Abbott doing a Scott Boland. Everything he is touching is turning into gold today.
the gap between brisbanes good and bad is too big for me.
The better sides gap between their bad and good is a lot more narrower.
Giraffe goes , 4 down for the Sixers
The Renegades have all sorts of issues surrounding the ‘young talent’ on the list and the lack of balance/support with proven talent in the squad due to this, but someone has to answer for the poor international signings in
-
Where is Unmukt Chand? How can an international signing have not played a game in the worst batting line up in the BBL? If he’s no good, then someone’s got to answer for ever adding him to the squad in the first place
-
Mohammad Nabi has the 11th best bowling economy in BBL11 at 6.8 and for some reason has bowled only 10 overs in 6 games what is going on?
-
Reece Topley. What is the obsession with English medium bowlers? Waste of an international spot
-
Zahir Khan. Has been a win. Particularly with no Boyce available
Sydney Thunder have won the toss and have opted to field
