The two clubs, headquartered in Sydney, who had never played in the previous rust -out game, will compete in a symbolic place to determine who will play with Herbats in a tournament at BELLERIVE OVAL on Monday evening.
Sixers is one of the most successful franchises in the tournament, achieving three titles and 10 finals, and Thunder is a perennial underground resident with an unwanted record of five wood spoons.
But batter Jordan Silk said he would not settle for their honors ahead of the conflict that must win at 7:15 pm (AEDT).
“Our record for Thunder was quite powerful throughout our history. We get a lot of faith from it. We have had a tree on them for many years, ”said Jordan Silk.
“This year, David Warner joined again for Thunder, and (Wicket Keeper) SAM Billings again joined the group, and they certainly line up a little different.
“You can’t take any game for granted. We must do our best to succeed that game tomorrow.”
Sixers won six consecutive wins against Sydney rivals, and Thunder has not won the BBL match with Ja Hong -colored man since January 2021. It was in 2017 that Thunder lasted Sixers on SCG.
However, thunder was inspired by the winning team of Michael Hussey, who laid trophy in 2016, despite the ranking fourth place in the rankings.
“In the year we won the championship, we were weak and we had a great team. We have a great team this season, and I still think we will participate in the final race as the weak. ”Thunder’s all -round player, Chris Green, told reporters.
“I really support the way we play. There are many believers in the group that we can continue to win the game, and there are many fights within the group. ”

Thunder has set the Sydney Smash Challenger | 04:08
At the beginning of summer, Sixers’ captain Moises Henriques set fire to the furnace by declaring that Sydney Derby was “easy 2 points.”
But next week, Sixers’ victory in Homebush proved that the all -round player Ben Dwarshius steals 15 points from the last over the chase to steal the victory at the threshold of defeat.
Rain lost his chances to Thunder last week with the cancellation of Derby last week, but the claim David Warner told a rival to warn him ahead of Challenger.
Warner said in Channel 7, “There’s nothing easy here, Moisess.”
“It’s a matter of dying or dying.”
Sixers will not have a Steve Smith, Sean Abbott and TOD MURPHY after the Star Trio flew to the Sri Lanka test tour next week, and left the Tournament.
Meanwhile, Henry’s team was defeated by Hurricane at a qualifier in Hobat on Tuesday, and in one level, he collapsed 3-5 in a failed chase.
“If you know that their big dogs are not there, no one is actually scoring for them. We think we can put a lot of pressure on them. ”Sangha continued.
“We are never in the shadow of the Sixers. I think they are always afraid of facing us.
“If we try the same thing (like a waist Kane), secure a ticket gate early, and put pressure on them, they think they can be vulnerable.
“They are expected to win. They usually beat Thunder. I think this year will be reversed. ”

Green Out Finals All match highlights | 14:51
Spiners Tom Andrews, Green and Sangha were centered on the success of Thunder this summer, and these three dominated the slow and dry deck of the Sydney Showground.
But the SCG surface has been proven to be less helpful for spin this season. The slow Boler recorded an average of 46.62 in the stadium compared to 21.04 of Sydney Show Ground. Meanwhile, the batters of the Schisens scored an average of 45.25 this season’s spin, which was much higher than 27.18 when faced with Quicks.
Considering the conditions, Thunder can be tempted to replace one of the spinners with Challenger’s Pakistan’s fast muhammad hasnain.
“It’s hard to change that kind of lineup of success. It’s a different proposal here. This season, spin didn’t work as much as in the past.” Silk said.
“This season tends to slide a little bit more, and tomorrow night, you will see more free flow than rotation.
“I think we should do our best because they are all good at bowling.”
Meanwhile, Sixers has discovered their own spin Maestro, the UK’s leggie Jafer Chohan, who scored 2-28 in an outstanding match against Hurricane this week.
