After starting this tournament with a defeat, Sydney Thunder managed five successive victories. However, in their last game, Brisbane Heat ended that winning streak by beating Thunder by five wickets. All-rounder Daniel Sans is out of this latest squad. While he suffered a blow on his helmet in the last game, the medical team has decided to take some time before reappearing for the side. After playing seven matches this BBL season, while Sams has scored 133 runs in five innings (average 33.25; strike-rate 218.03), he has also taken 8 wickets in six innings. So, Sydney Thunder will surely miss him in the upcoming match. However, they have still enough strong players as captain Callum Ferguson and Alex Hales both have scored 243 runs in seven innings each. While Ferguson has registered three half-centuries this season, Hales has managed it once. Also, Usman Khawaja has recently shown his improvement with the bat as he has scored 164 runs in seven innings. The 19-year-old leg-spinner Tanveer Sangha has highly impressed this season as he is the joint-second most wicket-taker in the ongoing BBL 10 with 13 wickets. Off-spinner Chris Green has also collected 10 wickets this season. Like Daniel Sams, Nathan McAndrew has also bagged 8 wickets in six innings.
