SIX vs REN, Team Previews

Sydney Sixers

The Sydney Sixers are one of the most consistent teams in the BBL. They have managed to win the title thrice, while have been the runners-up on three other occasions. The last time the Sixers won the trophy was in the 2020-21 season, and they will be looking to repeat the antics from that. 

Melbourne Renegades

While the Sixers have been consistent with their show and, in most seasons, have made it to the top four, it has been quite the opposite for the Renegades. They were champions once in 2018-19 under the leadership of Aaron Finch, but there have been seven occasions where they failed to make it to the top four. Nic Maddinson and his men will be eager to put their best foot forward and win the trophy this time.


SIX vs REN, Head-to-head 

The Sixers have dominated the clash historically. The two teams have played against each other in 18 games so far, and they have managed to win 12 of them, while the Renegades have only five wins to their name. At the Sydney Cricket Ground, the two teams have faced each other six times; four of these games have been won by the Sixers. The Renegades will be eager to tilt the balance of this face-off in their favour for this season if possible.

SIX vs REN, Match 2: Top Player Picks

Steve Smith (SIX)

  • Steve Smith had an excellent season with the bat last year. He enjoyed opening the innings and scored runs for fun. The Aussie maverick will try and repeat the same this year and will be an important pick for this game. 

Sean Anthony Abbott (SIX)

  • Sean Anthony Abbott has emerged as a BBL superstar in the last few seasons. He is an outstanding all-rounder who can make game changing contributions in both innings of the match. Given the potential of Abott, he is a must-pick for this match. 

Jordan Silk (REN)

Adam Zampa (REN)

  • Adam Zampa is coming into the tournament with a great form behind him. He has performed brilliantly in the ODI World Cup in India. Though the format here is different Zampa will play a key role for the Sixers and more so on the SCG pitch.
