HUR vs SIX Dream11 prediction: Match preview

After the successful conclusion of the Women's Big Bash League, Australian fans will gear up for some more T20 action in the form of the BBL 2020. The exciting inaugural fixture will see the defending champions, the Sydney Sixers take on one of their fiercest rivals, the Hobart Hurricanes. Of the last four completed games between the sides, the Hurricanes have beat the Sixers in three games, including a 25-run thrashing during the Sixers' winning run last year. The Hurricanes eventually finished 4th on the table and lost the Eliminator to Sydney Thunder.

Both the teams will be missing some of their top players due to Australia’s ongoing international summer against India. The Sixers' skipper, Moises Henriques, has received a call up to the Australia A squad playing against India on Friday. The Hurricanes will also be missing their captain, Matthew Wade who played two brilliant knocks for the national side in the recently concluded T20I series against India. Both teams will hope for a winning start at the tournament, which is set to finish on February 6, 2021.
