[Hamingja]

Owen
Jewell
McDermott
Chaudhary
Wade
David
Jordan
Ellis
Gannon/Bean - toss a coin, maybe slight lean Gannon for experience
Hatzoglou
Meredith

If I was Hobart I would do that I think. Gannon/Bean bowl a couple with the new ball and then just holster them. Chaudhary finishes that set of 4. Don't bowl Owen or David. Batter short but Jordan and Ellis facing balls is a better prospect than Wakim or Doran doing it so YOLO.

Come on Canes

 

[ep2018]

Sixers will beat the Canes here and then beat them again at the SCG in the final imo.

I can't work out why they persist with Wakim. Offers nothing at all.

Bean is out of the squad, so it looks like they're either backing in Gannon or they're going to go one less quick and bring back Hatzoglou and/or Dooley.

Sixers to go out in straight sets

 

[Hamingja]

I can't work out why they persist with Wakim. Offers nothing at all.

He is probably about minus 20 runs so far is you factor in the misfields. Hobart have been lucky that he has gotten out early and not chewed up many balls.

 

[GoldenMagpie16]

I'd go with

Owen
Jewell
Wakim
McDermott
Chaudhary
Wade
David
Jordan
Ellis
Hatzoglou
Meredith

 

[fargothegreat]

I'd go with

Owen
Jewell
Wakim
McDermott
Chaudhary
Wade
David
Jordan
Ellis
Hatzoglou
Meredith

I'd drop Wakim, shift everyone up one spot and play an extra bowler, probably Gannon.

Gannon went for 12 an over against the Stars.

Gannon went for 12 an over against the Stars.

Don't really have much else without big Billy. It's either him or Dooley. Don't see the point of Wakim. Can only have a negative effect on RR.

 

[Around the Wicket]

Toss will decide it, chasing side wins.

 

[Around the Wicket]

Sixers to go out in straight sets

Is Smith available?

 

[eth-dog]

Is Smith available?

Nope

 

[Around the Wicket]

Nope

Sixers will need Phillipe to fire then.

Sydney Sixers have won the toss and have opted to field

 

[Gough]

Kepler looks in good nick.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Hallelujah finally Hobart lost a toss

 

[NYRB]

Mitch Perry makes his debut for the Sixers

 

[Plugger35]

It should be an advantage batting 2nd but that's one of the weakest Sixers line ups I've seen, Hobart's line up is a lot stronger.

.I should point out Hobart have won games batting 1st this season, one of those wins batting first came against the Sixers.

 

[Plugger35]

Owen looking ominous.

 

[Gift]

Owens been such a beast this season
