The Hobart Hurricanes have moved up into the top-4 and actually opened up a bit of a gap between the trailing teams with their win against Brisbane Heat in the previous match. They now face a much tougher test against Sydney Thunder in this next BBL 2021-22 match. Sydney Thunder has won the previous five matches it has played and is in absolutely stunning form.
The cricket betting sites think the two teams are quite evenly matched and the betting odds on both of them to win are very close. Sydney Thunder is still the slight favorite and we think that reflects their current form quite well.
Match prediction and cricket betting tips for Hobart Hurricanes vs Sydney Thunder BBL 2021-22. The match is going to be played at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, Melbourne on the 10th of January 2022.
Hobart Hurricanes absolutely crushed an underpowered Brisbane Heat lineup in the previous match. Ben McDermott could have had an incredible third century in this edition of the BBL but he eventually fell on 93. McDermott has been the best batsman for the Hobart Hurricanes by a fair margin. You could continue to back Ben McDermott to score runs. The Over/Under line available for him right now is 26.5 but he has two fifties and two hundreds in eight matches so it would definitely be worth a punt.
It will be interesting to see if Matthew Wade plays this match. He is one of the leading batsmen for the Hurricanes but did not play the previous match. Caleb Jewell, Darcy Short, and Peter Handscomb give the Hobart Hurricanes an excellent batting lineup.
Thomas Rogers and Riley Meredith are the highest wicket-takers for the Hurricanes. Rogers is the one that has the best economy rate and the best average out of all the bowlers. You should stick to one of these two if you are going to pick someone for the Top Bowler Hobart Hurricanes batting market.

Sydney Thunder lost the services of Sam Billings, one of their best batsmen in BBL 2021-22, and did not lose a step. Daniel Sams of all people scored 98 not out to help them to the third-biggest win in BBL history. The previous match showed just how good a team Sydney Thunder is in the T20 format with an immense amount of power in its batting lineup and a number of players that can contribute in both aspects of the game.
However, we do think that not having Sam Billings is going to hurt it against some of the better teams.
Gilkes, Hales, and Sangha were the three batsmen that they played. A couple of early wickets could easily hurt Sydney Thunder massively since the depth in the batting is just not there.
Such a balance does give Sydney Thunder a lot of options in the bowling department. They had five excellent bowlers in the previous match but the most impressive has been Mohammad Hasnain. The Pakistani fast-bowler has been bowling thunderbolts and picked up six wickets in the two matches he has played.
Gurinder Sandhu, Daniel Sams, Nathan McAndrew, and Tanveer Sangha bowled in the previous match. ANy one of them could end up taking the most wickets and so we would avoid staying away from the Top Bowler Sydney Thunder betting market for this match.
M Gilkes, AD Hales, Jason Sangha, Daniel Sams, Oliver Davies, Ben Cutting, Baxter J Holt, Nathan McAndrew, Gurinder Sandhu, Tanveer Sangha, Mohammad Hasnain.
The team that wins the toss is going to want to field first. Two out of the previous three matches played at the MCG were won by the chasing team. We also saw some difficult conditions where it was difficult to ascertain what a good score was batting first.
Read our guide on toss predictions to learn how we analyze and come up with our tips.
The weather forecast for match day in Melbourne is quite good and so we should be able to get an uninterrupted contest. We have seen a big improvement in the playing surface at the MCG where the average scores have been around 160 for the most part. The previous match, though, saw a low-scoring game be played there. We think there has been some time played since the previous match and so the surface will have had time to return to its best.
A score of around 160 should be par.

This is a very close match between two strong teams. Sydney Thunder has the momentum of five straight wins but its team is not very balanced without Billings in there. We think the opportunity to bet on Hobart Hurricanes for better than 2x returns is worth the risk. The Hobart Hurricanes have a strong batting lineup led by the best batsman of BBL 2021-22 so far and its bowling is quite good too.
Bet on Hobart Hurricanes to win.
Matthew Gilkes has been in great form and is showing a real aggressive streak to his batting. He has hit nine sixes in the tournament already and we like the odds currently available on him to hit one more.
With 24 fours in just seven innings, Jason Sangha has been one of the most consistent boundary hitters in the Sydney Thunder lineup. We think he is worth a punt for this betting market.
