In their recent outing against the Sixers, even the dramatic entrance of David Warner via helicopter couldn’t turn the tide for the Thunder. With just one win in 9 matches, the Thunder’s season has been anything but spectacular. However, as they gear up for the remaining contests, including this one against the Strikers, there’s a collective determination to bow out on a positive note.
Despite individual brilliance from Daniel Sams and Cameron Bancroft, the Thunder has struggled to stitch together a cohesive team performance this season. Their campaign never really gained the momentum they hoped for, and they find themselves playing for pride in the remaining dead rubbers. The likes of Warner, Hales, and Bancroft will be eager to contribute significantly and finish the season on a high.
Predicted Playing XI:
David Warner, Alex Hales, Cameron Bancroft (wk), Tom Kohler-Cadmore, Daniel Sams, Oliver Davies, Chris Green (c), Nathan McAndrew, Toby Gray, Liam Hatcher, Tanveer Sangha.

Jake Weatherald’s blazing knock of 80 runs off 32 balls in Hobart propelled the Strikers to the fourth position on the table. Despite the unfortunate exit of hard-hitter Chris Lynn due to injury, the Strikers found a capable replacement who made an immediate impact. As they head into their final match of the tournament, the Strikers find themselves in a precarious position regarding their playoff aspirations. While their chances are somewhat out of their hands, they are determined to end the season on a high note, particularly against the Thunder.
The Short duo, Matthew and D’Arcy, has been the backbone of their batting lineup, consistently making valuable contributions, especially during the power play. The Strikers’ bowlers have exhibited commendable resilience, picking up crucial wickets and limiting the opposition to par or slightly above-par scores.
Predicted Playing XI:
Matthew Short (c), D’Arcy Short, Jake Weatherald, Adam Hose, Thomas Kelly, Jamie Overton, Harry Nielsen (wk), Henry Thornton, David Payne, Cameron Boyce, Lloyd Pope.
