THU vs STR Dream11 Prediction for today’s BBL Match 37, Playing XI, Captain and Vice-Captain Picks

It is the final few games of the Big Bash League(BBL) 2023-24 with match 37 coming up at the Manuka Oval in the Australian capital known as Canberra. The Sydney Thunder will be taking on the Adelaide Strikers. With only one spot left up for grabs the Adelaide strikers will be looking to win their final game to improve their chances of getting that final spot on the other hand the Sydney Thunder can only play the party spoilers since they are already eliminated from the tournament. This can still be a thrilling contest with one side trying to get into the playoffs and one side looking to at least finish on a high after an underwhelming season.

The Sydney Thunder has easily had one of their worst seasons in the BBL this season with just 1 win in their 8 matches and 6 losses. Nothing has gone right for them this season losing 4 out of their last 5 games. Chris Green and his men will have to forget their chances of making it to the playoffs, but they will still look to finish with some wins on the board and spoil the party in this match. With David Warner back as well it will be interesting to see what the Thunder have in store in the last few games.

The Adelaide Strikers on the other hand have come back into this season with a bang after having a slow start to their season. Winning their last three games in a row has not only given them enough confidence going into this match but also has improved their season. Currently sitting on 9 points with 4 wins and 4 losses, they have a good chance in fixing a spot in the playoffs, especially with a positive Net run rate as well. Matthew Short and his boys will be ready for the contest and will be the hungrier in the game for runs with the bat and wickets with the ball.

THU vs STR - Likely pitch conditions

The Manuka Oval might be the capital of the nation, but is one of the most unpredictable surfaces in Australia. The pitch is said to be difficult to bat on due to the sandy soil of the pitch. At the start of the innings, the pitch is a good surface to bat on, but in the second innings, the bowlers get enough assistance to create havoc on the batters. Overall the team should bat first set a decent total on the board and let the bowlers take advantage of the conditions in the second innings.
