Hobart Hurricanes will kick off their Big Bash League 2019-20 campaign against Sydney Sixers in Alice Springs today.
In the absence of Matthew Wade youngster Ben McDermott will lead Hurricanes. Hobart have a good batting line up of McDermott, D’Arcy Short, George Bailey, David Miller and Caleb Jewell and in the bowling James Faulkner, Riley Meredith and spinners Qais Ahmad and Clive Rose will be the keys. On the other hand, Sydney Sixers have begun their campaign on a bright note with a big 8 wickets win over Perth Scorchers and they will look to extend their winning streak. The bowling attack of Tom Curran, Sean Abbott, Ben Dwarshuis and Steve O’keefe was brilliant and in the batting Josh Phillipe, Daniel Hughes and James Vince will be the trump cards.
