HBH vs SYT Match Prediction & Analysis Match 29 of the BBL 2024-25 will see Hobart Hurricanes face off against Sydney Thunder at Bellerive Oval this Friday. Their previous encounter at ENGIE Stadium on Wednesday was rained out, preventing either team from moving to the top of the Big Bash League ladder. With one competition point each, the second-placed Thunder and third-placed Hurricanes are currently tied with the Sydney Sixers, who hold the top spot due to a superior net run rate. This rematch offers the winner a chance to ascend to the top of the standings if other results go their way.  TEAMS PREVIEW Hobart Hurricanes Preview After a disastrous start – bowled out for 74 against the Renegades in their season opener – Hobart Hurricanes have finally found their groove, winning four in a row. They’re now in a good position to make the finals for the first time in three seasons, with just four games remaining. Apart from Matthew Wade, who has a top score of 27, their top six batters have all been in form at different times. Emerging star Mitch Owen hit an unbeaten 101 against the Scorchers, the best knock of the season so far. Ben McDermott is another player to keep an eye on, with 124 runs in 5 innings at a strike rate of 149. Tim David has also shown he can dominate any attack, as seen in his 62* off 28 balls against the Strikers. Sydney Thunder Preview Even though their previous game was called off, Sydney Thunder are in a strong position to finish in the top four. Their batting has been in top form, with captain David Warner leading the charge. Warner has scored 228 runs in 6 innings, with an average of 45.60 and a strike rate of 146.15.  Teenage Test opener Sam Konstas is back for the Thunder after Australia’s Border-Gavaskar Trophy win, providing a much-needed boost as the team deals with several injuries.  Another batter to keep an eye on is Sam Billings, who has been in fine form, hitting 149 runs in 6 innings at an average of 144.66. Matthew Gilkes has been impressive in the three games he has played.  Weather Conditions Bellerive Oval often offers a good batting surface, particularly early in the match. Expect decent pace and carry, allowing batters to play their shots. Spinners may find some turn later on, especially if the pitch is dry, but it’s usually not a significant factor. The shorter straight boundaries can be tempting targets for big hitters. Overhead conditions can play a role, with any cloud cover potentially assisting swing bowlers. The weather in Hobart during the game is expected to be mostly cloudy and cool, with no forecast of rain.
