Big Bash League 2022-23, Match 30, Adelaide Strikers vs Hobart Hurricanes: Probable XIs, Match Prediction, Pitch Report, and Live Streaming Details
The Adelaide Strikers and Hobart Hurricanes will face each other in Match no. 30 of the Big Bash League (BBL) 2022-23 on Thursday, 5 January. The match will take place at the Adelaide Oval.
The Strikers, led by Peter Siddle, started the tournament with three wins in a row and were firm favorites to finish on top of the points table. However, they have gone down the pecking order and are on a four-match losing streak currently.
From the top of the table, the Strikers have moved to fifth in the standings. Their net run rate of +1.029, however, is still decent, mainly due to their big win over Sydney Thunder last month.
The Hurricanes, captained by Matthew Wade, haven’t had the best of tournaments either. They have won three out of six matches, but are yet to win back-to-back games. They will also need to take care of their net run rate, which is currently at -0.589.
The Hurricanes will go into the game after beating the Strikers by seven wickets. Caleb Jewell and Ben McDermott scored half-centuries and helped the Hurricanes chase down 178 with 16 balls to spare.
