Team Preview
Washington Freedom
The Steve Smith-led side are undefeated in this tournament and are looking in fine touch. In their last game against Texas Super Kings, openers Steve Smith and Travis Head were on song as they both scored fifties.
The team is heavily dominated by Australian players and even Glenn Maxwell was on song against Texas Super Kings.
Even in the bowling, Jasdeep Singh took a three-wicket haul, while Maxwell and Rachin Ravindra starred with the ball.
The players would look to continue their dominance against San Francisco Unicorns.
San Francisco Unicorns
The Corey Anderson-led side is also star-studded, as they have Pat Cummins, Finn Allen and several other star players. In their last game against Seattle Orcas, opener Allen scored 77 (30) and was the point of difference between the two teams.
Thus, the upcoming game would be a great battle of two teams with a great opening unit.
Pat Cummins would be low on confidence as he went for many runs in the last game but would look to change things around when he faces Washington Freedoms.
