In this article, we will be analyzing the SIX vs THU Match Prediction for the BBL 2023-2024. The blockbuster clash between Sydney Sixers and Sydney Thunder on January 12 at the Sydney Cricket Ground will mark the return of David Warner in the Big Bash League (BBL). The southpaw recently retired from Test and ODI cricket which helped him play the premier T20 competition of Australia. The veteran batter is expected to reach Sydney a couple of hours before the match as his helicopter is slated to land on the outfield.
Coming to the onfield performance, the Thunder are currently seventh on the BBL points table, with three points from seven matches. Mathematically they are still alive in the race but the percentage is extremely low. The goal now is to finish on a high note to give the fans something to cheer about. Sixers, on the other hand, are third on the points table and defeated Melbourne Stars by seven wickets in the last match.
