Sunrisers Eastern Cape vs MI Cape Town, SA20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Sunrisers Eastern Cape vs MI Cape Town𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 :  January 09 ,Thursday​​𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 :​ 21:00 PM IST​​​​​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Saint George’s Park, Gqeberha, South Africa𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : ​​SA20 League, 2025 Sunrisers Eastern Cape remain undefeated against MI Cape Town, having won each of their last four meetings. Sunrisers Eastern Cape vs MI Cape Town TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. SEC vs MICT Match Prediction & Analysis SA20’s third run kicks off this Thursday, with Sunrisers Eastern Cape, the defending champs, facing MI Cape Town in Gqeberha. The Sunrisers have bossed Cape Town in past clashes, taking all four games. This gives them an edge heading into this game. But, it’s a new season and a clean slate. MI Cape Town will want to forget previous letdowns and jumpstart this campaign with a win. TEAMS PREVIEW Sunrisers Eastern Cape Preview Two time defending champions Sunrisers Eastern Cape will be looking to make it three titles in a row as they begin a new season of the SA20.  Aiden Markram, back at the helm of a skilled squad, is set to lead by example just as he did last year, amassing 261 runs over 9 innings. However, the batter to watch out for will be Tristan Stubbs, the team’s leading run-getter in the previous season with 301 runs in 9 innings at an average of over 60 and a strike rate of 168. David Bedingham, also in fine form recently, will serve as a wildcard and could prove to be a key player for the team this year. MI Cape Town Preview In the first two editions of the tournament, MI Cape Town struggled to find their footing, finishing last in the standings both times. However, with a revamped squad and a focus on addressing past weaknesses, the team looks better prepared this year. Sadly, a hamstring injury will keep England’s Ben Stokes out of the SA20 league for three months, which is a major blow to Cape Town. In his absence, Ryan Rickelton will be a central figure for the team after an incredible last season where he racked up 530 runs across 10 innings, averaging 58 with a strike rate of 174. The middle order has dependable options like Rassie van der Dussen and Reeza Hendricks to anchor the innings, while Dewald Brevis can provide an attacking spark when needed. Hendricks, who played the past couple of years for Joburg Super Kings, has notched 411 runs over 22 innings, maintaining an average of 24.17 and a strike rate of 109.60. His last outing for South Africa saw him smash 117 runs against Pakistan, a performance that should give his team confidence as they prepare to challenge the reigning champions, Sunrisers Eastern Cape, in the opening match. Weather Conditions St George’s Park in Gqeberha offers a lively pitch for T20 cricket, often favoring batsmen with its true bounce and shorter boundaries. However, the coastal breeze can assist swing bowlers early on, while spinners might find grip as the match progresses. Expect high scores if the dew sets in, but clever bowling variations could keep things competitive. The weather in Gqeberha will be clear and breezy with very little chance of rain. SEC vs MICT Pitch Report The average first innings score at St George’s Park is 154. The highest score posted here is Durban Super Giants’ 225/3 last season versus Sunrisers Eastern Cape, a game they won by 35 runs. Toss: To Bowl Teams usually prefer to chase in day-night T20 games these days as the dew makes batting easier. So it won’t be surprising if both captains look to field first in this game.

Melbourne Stars vs Sydney Sixers, BBLT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Melbourne Stars vs Sydney Sixers 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 :  January 09 ,Thursday​​ 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 :​ 13:45 PM IST​​​​​ 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Melbourne Cricket Ground, Richmond, Australia 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : ​​Big Bash League, 2024-25 Table-toppers take on the bottom-placed Stars Sydney Thunder vs Hobart Hurricanes TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. MLS vs SYS Match Prediction & Analysis Melbourne Stars will take on Sydney Sixers at their home venue. This will be the Stars’ third match on this ground this season. Having won their last game here chasing down 169 with 5 wickets in hand, the hosts will be confident and eyeing for a 3rd straight win. Sydney Sixers suffered a huge batting collapse in their last outing against Hobart. They had been exceptional with the bat before this loss and successfully chased down a 195-run target against MLS at home. The hosts are dependent on their middle and lower middle-order batters since the top order has been quite inconsistent. In the last two successful run chases, it was Marcus Stoinis who starred with the bat at number 5. TEAMS PREVIEW Melbourne Stars Preview The hosts are back to winning ways after losing 5 matches on the trot. However, they aren’t without issues. The last two wins saw only a couple of batters step up and lead the run-chase while most of the top-order failed to get going. Marcus Stoinis is in fine touch in the lower middle order and will be the key player to watch out for. He is the finisher for the side and also has the support of another big finisher Glenn Maxwell who comes in at 6. Stars have packed their lower middle order with some big-hitting batters as Hilton Cartwright known for his big-hitting, comes in at number 7. Sydney Sixers Preview Sydney Sixers must look for a quick comeback. Their winning streak ended with a huge loss against Hobart as they were bowled out for 110 in the chase of 162 runs. Moises Henriques will be hoping for his top-order batters to quickly find their rhythm as they go up against an in-form MLS. The opposition has been brilliant with the ball in their recent outings and will likely pose a tough challenge to the Sixers in this game. Josh Philippe and James Vince have a big task on their hands. They need to put up a good partnership for the first wicket and set the Sixers on the path to a big score. Henriques is a reliable and experienced batter in the middle-order and along with Jordan Silk, will be expected to deliver an impactful knock. Silk has been a key player in the past for the Sixers and is known for his finishing skills. While the batting lineup is quite deep with the likes of Jack Edwards and Hayden Kerr coming in at 6 and 7, they haven’t made a big impact recently. It is the top-order that scored the majority of runs in recent matches of the Sixers. Weather Conditions We expect cloudy skies in Melbourne on the match day with a high of 30 degrees Celsius. There are no signs of rain and we can expect an uninterrupted and exciting contest between the two teams. MLS vs SYS Pitch Report The pitch offers great help to the bowlers and the average 1st innings score here is 147 runs in the last 10 matches. The highest successful run chase in recent games here was 173 runs. It is clear that the bowlers have enjoyed the upper hand on this ground and will play a key role in this game as well. Toss: To Bowl Teams bowling first have won 6 of the last 10 T20s played here. This season, there have been just two games so far and both went in favor of the team bowling first. Both teams have a strong bowling attack and will back themselves to restrict the opposition to a par total.

Sydney Thunder vs Hobart Hurricanes, BBLT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Sydney Thunder vs Hobart Hurricanes𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 :  January 08 ,Wednesday​​𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 :​ 13:45 PM IST​​​​​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Sydney Showground, Sydney Olympic Park, Australia𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : ​​Big Bash League, 2024-25 Two teams in the hunt for pole position in the 2024/25 BBL meet at the Sydney Showground on Wednesday evening. Sydney Thunder vs Hobart Hurricanes TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. SYT vs HBH Match Prediction & Analysis The 2024/25 edition of the Big Bash League continues to deliver plenty of entertainment and excitement, and ahead of this game, all eight teams are separated in the table by only five points. The congested nature of the table owes something to the weather which prevented tournament pace-setters Sydney Sixers taking the field in their last match but also to the resurgence of Melbourne Stars who had looked down and out but have now won two in a row. TEAMS PREVIEW Sydney Thunder Preview Sydney Thunder have impressed so far in this campaign and although they lost their last game, against Brisbane Heat, they did well to even fulfil the fixture such was the length of their injury list! The on-field collision between Cameron Bancroft and Daniel Sams has already cost the team the services of the former for the rest of this BBL and this game is likely to come too soon for Sams who is recovering from concussion. There is good news on the availability front ahead of this match though with Australia’s latest golden-boy, opener Sam Konstas who made a name for himself with his confidence and brashness against India’s much proclaimed opening bowler Jasprit Bumrah, returning to the squad. He will open alongside the in-form captain David Warner. With the ball, Lockie Ferguson has been the standout performer this campaign although the 41 year old Dan Christian, who has come out of retirement due to the injury crisis, bowled with excellent control and variations in the last match. Hobart Hurricanes Preview Hobart Hurricanes made it four wins in a row when they beat Adelaide Strikers by five wickets with eight balls remaining on Sunday with the victory mainly thanks to the supreme lower-order hitting from Tim David who rightly took the Player of the Match award after hitting 62 not out from 28 balls. Earlier in the game, Afghan left-arm wrist spinner Waqar Salamkheil took 2/22 for the second game in a row and he will be hoping to find plenty of turn once more at the Sydney Showground. One thing the Hurricanes do have is plenty of match winners with the bat and opener Mitchell Owen has stood out thanks to his aggressive approach. With the ball, Chris Jordan continues to deliver wickets in spite of being in his 37th year. Weather Conditions According to the forecast there will be rain around Sydney for most of the day on Wednesday but it could all miss the Sydney Showground! If it does or if it doesn’t, the temperature will be no higher than 20 degrees, although the humidity levels will be touching 75% by the close. SYT vs HBH Pitch Report The Showground Stadium in Sydney is one of those venues where the batters never feel completely in and the bowlers always have a little encouragement. We predict a par score will be no higher than 175 and there will be assistance for the quicks as well as the spinners. Toss: To Bowl Although the last game at this venue was won by the team batting first, there had been a long advantage for the teams fielding first in previous fixtures. Therefore, we predict both sides will choose to bowl first if they win the toss.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : New Zealand vs Sri Lanka𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 :  January 08 ,Wednesday​​ 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 :​ 06:30 AM IST​​​​​ 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Seddon Park, Hamilton, New Zealand 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : ​​2nd ODI 2025 New Zealand looking to win the ODI series in the second ODI against Sri Lanka Perth Scorchers vs Melbourne Renegades TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. NZ vs SL Match Prediction & Analysis New Zealand will take on Sri Lanka in the 2nd ODI in Sri Lanka tour of New Zealand at Seddon Park, Hamilton on 8th January 2024 at 6:30 am IST. Sri Lanka are on a tour to New Zealand to play 3 T20Is and 3 ODIs. The T20I series ended in favor of New Zealand as they won the series 2-1.  TEAMS PREVIEW New Zealand Preview When it comes to ODIs, New Zealand are enjoying a great run at home. In the last 5 years, New Zealand played 15 games at home and won 12. They lost 1 game and 2 games ended in no result. Against Sri Lanka also, they have a good record of winning 4 out of their last 7 head-to-head games (1 no -result) New Zealand started the 3-match ODI series with a big win by 9 wickets against Sri Lanka. In the first ODI, New Zealand bowled first after winning the toss. They reduced Sri Lanka to 4 for 23 by the 10th over. Sri Lanka somehow managed to reach 178 all out in the 44th over. Matt Henry was the peak of the bowlers, claiming 4 wickets for just 19 runs. Jacob Duffy and Nathan Smith took 2 wickets each. Sri Lanka Preview Sri Lanka are on a tour to New Zealand to play three T20Is and three ODIs. They have already lost the T20 series 1-2 in favor of New Zealand. In the first ODI as well, Sri Lanka looked clueless against a top-notch New Zealand bowling attack, losing the batch by 9 wickets with about 23 overs remaining. It will be interesting to see if they can come back in this second ODI. The first ODI started with Sri Lanka batted first after losing the toss. Sri Lanka started cautiously, however, lost 4 quick wickets by the 10th over, scoring just 23 runs. Avishka Fernando and Janith Liyange forced a partnership to take them to 110. Chamindu Vikramasinghe and Wanindu Hasaranga added some runs down the order, but Sri Lanka could manage just 178 all out in the 44th over. Avishka Fernando was the top scorer with 56 runs. Weather Conditions The weather on the match day at Seddon Park, Hamilton is expected to be mostly cloudy and breezy. The temperature will range between a high of 25°C and a low of 12°C. The cloudy and breezy conditions should help the team bowling first. There is absolutely no chance of rain. These are perfect conditions for a cricket match. NZ vs SL Pitch Report The venue of the match is Seddon Park, Hamilton. It is one of the most iconic cricket grounds in New Zealand renowned for its picturesque setting. The venue is named after former Prime Minister of New Zealand, Richard Seddon. Established in 1950, Seddon Park has hosted many international tests, ODIs, and T20 games. The venue has a seating capacity of 10,000 spectators. Toss: To Bowl A total of 39 ODIs have been played at this venue, with 36 ending in outright results. Out of the 36 games, teams bowling First have won 23 games, while teams batting first has won just 13 games. The conditions clearly favor the team bowling First at this venue. The team winning the toss should bowl first here.

Perth Scorchers vs Melbourne Renegades, BBLT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Perth Scorchers vs Melbourne Renegades 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 :  January 07 ,Tuesday​​ 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 :​ 13:45 PM IST​​​​​ 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Perth Stadium, Burswood, Australia 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : ​​Big Bash League, 2024-25 Can the Renegades end their losing run? Perth Scorchers vs Melbourne Renegades TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. PRS vs MLR Match Prediction & Analysis Perth Scorchers will take on MLR at their home venue. The last time Melbourne Renegades won a match was against Perth Scorchers in Melbourne while chasing a 144-run target. Their batting wasn’t in good touch in that game either and the top-order woes continue to trouble MLR. The hosts suffered a defeat in their last outing at this venue in Perth while defending 177 runs against Sydney Thunder. They had won two out of two matches at home before the loss. Finn Allen and Cooper Connolly are the in-form batters for PRS in the top 4. Allen scored two consecutive fifties while Connolly delivered consistently in the middle order. TEAMS PREVIEW Perth Scorchers Preview Ashton Turner will expect his bowlers to step up and deliver a better performance this time around. It was a good total they were defending in the last outing but despite a great variety in the bowling attack, PRS failed to put any pressure on the opposition with the ball. Lance Morris stood out with his spell of 3 for 22 from 4 Overs. Scorchers will need others like Jason Behrendorff, Andrew Tye, and Matthew Kelly to also deliver breakthroughs if Scorchers are to get back to winning ways. The bowlers were all on the money in their previous home game against Brisbane Heat where they bowled out the opposition for 132 runs while defending 165. Behrendorff and Jhye Richardson shined with the ball in Adelaide in the next game. Melbourne Renegades Preview Melbourne Renegades are desperate for a win. They have lost 3 matches on the trot. Their last win came at the Docklands Stadium in Melbourne as they chased down 144 runs with 2 wickets in hand against the Scorchers. MLR have won just 2 of their 6 matches in the BBL this year. After their win over PRS, the Renegades finished 148 for 8 while chasing a 157-run target against SYT. The next game saw MLR post 149 runs while batting first at the home venue. With some good knocks from Bethell and Wells in the middle order, the Renegades finally managed to cross the 160-run mark in the last outing but it wasn’t enough. Overall, it is a very grim picture for MLR as far as the batting is concerned. Tim Seifert, an experienced player at number 3 has failed to deliver while opener Jake Fraser-McGurk is also struggling to get going. Weather Conditions It will be a clear and sunny day with a high of 30 degrees Celsius in Perth. We can expect a complete and uninterrupted game of cricket. The weather is likely to help the batters as the pitch gets hard under the sun allowing for an even bounce and carry. PRS vs MLR Pitch Report The pitch is known for helping the pacers and has been a paradise for fast bowlers in the longer format of the game. However, in T20 cricket, batters have managed to get the upper hand quite often. The average 1st innings total in the last 10 matches here is 177 runs. The highest score successfully chased here in recent times is 201 runs. We reckon the team batting first needs to put 180+ on the board to be in a competitive position in this match. Toss: To Bowl Though teams bowling first have won 2 of the 3 matches played here this season, it is the batting team that has enjoyed the upper hand overall winning 6 of the last 10 T20 matches here. Renegades aren’t in any shape to chase down a competitive total and are better off batting first. Scorchers too will back their bowlers to defend a total against a struggling MLR.

Brisbane Heat vs Sydney Thunder, BBLT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Brisbane Heat vs Sydney Thunder𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 :  January 06 ,Monday​​ 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 :​ 13:45 PM IST​​​​​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : The Gabba, Woolloongabba, Australia𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : ​​Big Bash League, 2024-25 All three games at the Gabba this BBL has gone the way of the chasing side, indicating that the team batting second  here will be at an advantage.  Brisbane Heat vs Sydney Thunder TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. BH vs SYT Match Prediction & Analysis This Monday, the Brisbane Cricket Ground will play host to match 25 of the BBL 2024-25, where the Brisbane Heat will take on the Sydney Thunder. With only two wins from six games, the Heat find themselves in a tough spot, currently occupying fifth place. In contrast, the Thunder are riding high in second place, having racked up 8 points from just five games. The Heat do have a strong recent record against the Thunder, having come out on top in their last three BBL meetings. That said, the Thunder’s current form, with three consecutive wins under their belt, suggests they have the edge going into this one. TEAMS PREVIEW Brisbane Heat Preview Brisbane Heat’s season has been a rollercoaster ride so far, with a strong start followed by a few setbacks. After kicking off the campaign with back-to-back wins, they’ve suffered three consecutive defeats, including a loss to the Melbourne Stars in their last outing. Their previous fixture against Sydney Sixers was abandoned without a ball being bowled.  As they look to get back on track, the Heat will be relying on Nathan McSweeney to produce another impressive performance. With 129 runs in 5 innings, McSweeney is the team’s second-highest run-scorer and has the capability to anchor the innings and play a match-winning knock when needed.  Sydney Thunder Preview Sydney Thunder are on a hot streak in the BBL, having suffered just one defeat and notched up four wins, with their latest triumph coming against the Perth Scorchers, where they pulled off a thrilling chase of 178 on the final ball.  The team’s batting has been firing on all cylinders, with captain David Warner setting the tone, having scored 178 runs in 5 innings at an average of 44.50 and a strike rate of 148.33. The Thunder have suffered a huge blow with Cameron Bancroft being sidelined for an extended period due to the injury he sustained in the previous game. Daniel Sams will also miss out for the next four games because of a concussion. Sam Billings (139 runs in 5 matches) will have to step up big time In their absence. Weather Conditions The Brisbane Cricket Ground, commonly known as the Gabba, offers a balanced pitch for T20 cricket. Batters can enjoy even bounce, making shot-making easier, while fast bowlers gain assistance from the pace and carry. Spinners may find some grip as the match progresses. The weather in Brisbane will be warm and pleasant, perfect for a game of T20 cricket.  BH vs SYT Pitch Report The average score batting first at Brisbane is 166 in domestic T20 cricket. This season, the top score at this ground was Brisbane Heat’s 175-7, achieved while batting second against Adelaide Strikers. This indicates that the venue is favorable for teams batting second when the target is around 170-180 runs.

Melbourne Stars vs Melbourne Renegades, BBLT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Melbourne Stars vs Melbourne Renegades𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 :  January 04 ,Saturday​​𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 :​ 13:45 PM IST​​​​​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Melbourne Cricket Ground, Richmond, Australia𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : ​​Big Bash League, 2024-25 The BBL Melbourne derby is always a grand occasion and this one will be no different, under lights at the MCG on Saturday evening! Melbourne Stars vs Melbourne Renegades TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. MLS vs MLR Match Prediction & Analysis With table-toppers Sydney Sixers losing their last game and bottom of the pile Melbourne Stars getting their first win of the season in their last match, the BBL table is suddenly a lot more congested than anyone expected! Ahead of this game, Match 23, the Sixers top the table with eight points but have Perth Scorchers, Sydney Thunder and Hobart Hurricanes trailing them by only two points. The two Melbourne sides are in the bottom half of the table at this stage but the Renegades are only two points behind the Scorchers in second place. It was a comfortable win for the Stars against Brisbane Heat on New Year’s Day and another victory in this game would certainly make the table squeeze together even more. TEAMS PREVIEW Melbourne Stars Preview With a target of 150 to beat Brisbane Heat, Melbourne Stars cruised home with 11 balls to spare, something which did not look to be on the cards when they found themselves 14/3 after one ball of the fourth over! The fourth wicket partnership between Dan Lawrence (64 not out) and captain Marcus Stoinis (62) was enough to get the Stars’ season up and running and even allowed them to lose Glenn Maxwell for a golden duck. As a result, the batting line-up should come into his derby fixture with plenty of confidence with the likes of Ben Duckett and Sam Harper also producing good numbers this season. Melbourne Renegades Preview The Renegades were beaten for the second game in a row in Match 20 when they went down by five wickets with 17 balls remaining against Adelaide Strikers at the Docklands Stadium. The defeat was confirmed long before the winning runs were hit from the first ball of the 18th over of the second innings, but there were times during the first innings, when opener Josh Brown was going strong, where the Renegades looked like potential match winners. They do have fluent white ball batters and they will always back one of Brown, Jake Fraser-McGurk, Tim Seifert or Jacob Bethell to deliver the goods in the top four positions. Tom Rogers and Adam Zampa both come into this Melbourne derby after taking two wickets each against Adelaide Strikers, and the left-arm spin of Jacob Bethell could also be handy as a left-field option in this game. Weather Conditions Although Saturday is forecast to be cloudy in Melbourne, the temperature is also expected to reach 36 degrees. By the time the lights are in full flow and evening has arrived, it will still be 30+ for this game. MLS vs MLR Pitch Report The MCG is one of the most inspiring grounds to play at in world cricket and short of the Boxing Day test, playing in front of a huge crowd in a Melbourne derby is also an experience to remember. We expect a good batting track with a par score of 180+. Toss: To Bowl The team fielding first won the last game for both Melbourne sides so we predict that both captains will go out to the middle with the intention of bowling first if they win the toss.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Sydney Sixers vs Brisbane Heat 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 :  January 03 ,Friday​​𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 :​ 12:35 PM IST​​​​​ 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : C.ex Coffs International Stadium, Coffs Harbour, Australia𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 :​​ Big Bash League, 2024-25 Sydney Sixers emerged victorious over Brisbane Heat in their previous meeting this season. Sydney Sixers vs Brisbane Heat TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. SYS vs BH Match Prediction & Analysis Brisbane Heat meet Sydney Sixers this Friday evening at Coffs Harbour in the 21st BBL 2024-25 match. The Sixers currently sit at the top of the table with 8 points from five games. The Heat are struggling in sixth place, managing just two wins from their five games. The Sixers already beat the Heat in their previous encounter this season and will be confident of repeating the feat against their struggling opponents.  TEAMS PREVIEW Sydney Sixers Preview After winning their first four matches, Sydney Sixers suffered their first defeat this season at the hands of Hobart Hurricanes. Chasing a target of 162 at Hobart, the Sixers fell way short as they were bundled out for just 111. Despite the loss, the Sixers wouldn’t be too perturbed as they have had a near-flawless campaign so far.  Brisbane Heat Preview Brisbane Heat have had a mixed campaign so far. They started the season with a bang, winning two games in a row. However, they have stumbled post that with three consecutive defeats, the last of which was against Melbourne Stars. The team will be counting on Nathan McSweeney to deliver another standout performance. McSweeney, who is the team’s second-highest run-getter with 129 runs in 5 innings, has the ability to anchor the innings and play the big knock when needed.  Weather Conditions The International Sports Stadium in Coffs Harbour presents a well-maintained, fast pitch ideal for T20 cricket. Expect good bounce and carry for the pacers, while spinners will find some turn and grip. The outfield is fast, promising high scores. Batters who can time the ball well will thrive, making for an exciting contest. The weather will be partly cloudy with chances of a passing shower or two in the afternoon. However, we should still get a full game. SYS vs BH Pitch Report The average first innings score at the International Sports Stadium is 168. The highest total posted here is Sydney Sixers’ 203/5 versus Adelaide Strikers in 2023. This is the only game at the venue that has been won by the team batting first.

Perth Scorchers vs Sydney Thunder TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. PRS vs SYT Match Prediction & Analysis T20 cricket has always been a game of momentum and that force can also roll into additional matches with both teams in this clash, Perth Scorchers and Sydney Thunder, enjoying their cricket over recent rounds! There is more good news for the Scorchers and Thunder as Sydney Sixers have now been checked back at the top of the table after winning their opening four games they were defeated by Hobart Hurricanes by 50 runs on New Year’s Day. There is also more competitiveness at the bottom of the table now that Melbourne Stars are off the mark. All in all, it means that the result in this game will be crucial with teams coming up from the foot of the league now chasing those above them. TEAMS PREVIEW Perth Scorchers Preview Perth Scorchers have always been a side with a strong bowling unit as well as power throughout their batting line-up, but this year that appears to be even more the case. What’s more, the return of Jhye Richardson from the Australia Test squad has added even more quality to an already firing bowling attack! The new-ball pair of Richardson and Jason Behrendorff is one of the most accurate and potent in the tournament and they also have Lance Morris with Andrew Tye backing them up as strong pacers, not to mention the reliable spin of Ashton Agar and Cooper Connolly. Sydney Thunder Preview Sydney Thunder have been a bit hit and miss over the years in the BBL but this year they seem to have stumbled across a particularly strong bowling attack. It was Wes Agar who took all the headlines in the win over Melbourne Renegades after taking 4/32 from his four overs but it showed the depth of the team as Lockie Ferguson, who had been extremely impressive up until that game, went wicketless. Daniel Sams took 2/26 in that game and has already proved to be a match-winner with both bat and ball in this year’s BBL.  The batting line-up has a fluidity and fluency which other teams can only dream of and on any given day it is far to expect one of Cameron Bancroft, David Warner, Sherfane Rutherford, Oliver Davies or keeper-batter Sam Billings to step up! Weather Conditions There is not much chance of cloud or rain at any point in January in Perth and this game looks set to deliver a temperature of 26 degrees throughout in spite of being played between 18:15 and 21:35 local time! PRS vs SYT Pitch Report The Optus Stadium has seen teams win batting first and fielding first so far this season but overall the bowlers have had the most success. We predict that whoever bats first will feel they are in the game if they can post a total of 155+.

The match went into the second session of day four with two results still possible and it was South Africa’s lower order batters who were able to hold their nerves and get over the line. That victory means that South Africa are the first team to book their place in the WTC Final at Lord’s in June with the only question mark over who they will be facing in six months time. Proteas managed to get the victory against Pakistan in Centurion in a low-scoring classic. Could the two teams deliver another close contest or will the two wicket win last week soon be a distant memory with what we have in store in Cape Town. TEAMS PREVIEW South Africa Preview On a low-scoring pitch, batting fourth can be particularly tough both from a technical and mental perspective, but South Africa showed plenty of bottle and ability to chase down their target of 148 in Centurion and sneak over the line with two wickets remaining! Aiden Markram was the standout batter across both sides, hitting 89 of South Africa’s 301 in the first innings before making 37 in their ultimately successful 150/8. The right-handed opener has long been seen as a player failing to reach his potential but he will come into this Test full of confidence after those efforts. Pakistan Preview Any preview of a Pakistan game could not fail to mention how they are the most predictably unpredictable side in international cricket and a brief glance at their recent results confirms this. After being thrashed by England in their opening Test in October, they responded with wins by 152 runs and by nine wickets, but the Boxing Day defeat in Centurion will be tough to recover from after getting so close to recording their third victory in a row. Weather Conditions Cape Town in January can be beautiful and the weather forecast is for more of the same across the five days of this Test. No rain is expected and the temperature will get into the mid-twenties with clear skies but high humidity on all five days. RSA vs PAK Pitch Report Newlands is a ground where the ball can dominate the bat and we saw this last January when the Test lasted only two days and saw scores of 55, 176, 153 and 80/3. It could be tough work on the first day for the batters and any score of 250+ in the first innings of the game will be competitive. Toss: To Bowl Three of the last four Tests in Newlands have been won by the team chasing in the fourth innings of the game so we predict that both captains will go out to the middle wanting to bowl first.
