Dream11 match top picks
Top Wicketkeeper Pick
Josh Philippe is a big name in the BBL, averaging 32.13 points per game. However, he has struggled to get going on the powerplay this season. Philippe may be trusted in your SIX versus HUR Dream11 prediction squad due to his ability to score huge runs and experience.
Top Batter Pick
Ben McDermott, like Josh Philippe, has not hit a home run this season in the BBL. McDermott is recognised for his propensity to score huge runs, even not being in the greatest of shape. He was the leading run-scorer previous season, with 577 runs, and will be looking to do the same this season. McDermott is a strong option for your SIX versus HUR Dream11 prediction squad, as he is due for a massive score.
Top All-rounder Pick
Shadab Khan has been an excellent addition to the Hurricanes’ batting lineup, taking two wickets and scoring 29 runs. He’s been in great form with the ball this year, winning the PSL and the T20 World Cup. Shadab has a strike rate of more than 130 this year and is slated to bat at No. 4 for the Hurricanes. Shadab is a must-have in your SIX versus HUR Dream11 prediction squad given his track record at the SCG and his current form.
Top Bowler Pick
Sean Abbott has had a good season with the ball, taking four wickets in two games. He is averaging 20.50 and can take wickets at all stages of an innings. Abbott is a good option for your SIX versus HUR Dream11 prediction squad since he can also bat.
captain and vice-captain choices
James Vince has a fantastic BBL record, hitting 1436 runs with a strike rate of 131. Despite not scoring many runs this season, Vince averages about 30 in his BBL career, which will serve him well. Vince has been in terrific form this year and could be a fine captaincy pick in your SIX versus HUR Dream11 prediction squad.
Matthew Wade enters the game after a superb fifty against the Perth Scorchers. This year, the Hurricanes captain has a strike rate of more than 140 in T20 cricket and is a competent player of both speed and spin. Wade is in strong form at the plate and is expected to bat in the top order.
