The Adelaide Strikers will lock horns with the Sydney Thunder in Match 28 of the Big Bash League (BBL) 2021 at Adelaide Oval, Adelaide. The Adelaide Strikers have had a torrid run in this tournament so far, managing only one win in the six encounters that they have been a part of. With seven points to their name, the Strikers will be hoping for a much better showing in the second half of the BBL if they are to secure a playoff berth. The Sydney Thunder, on the other hand, have had a much better start to their campaign this edition, with three wins and three losses after six fixtures. The Thunder have a few chinks in their armor and should they correct those in time, they will fancy their chances of going all the way in this tournament. The Strikers lost their tournament-opener against the Melbourne Renegades by 2 runs. They followed that up with a win against the same opposition but ever since then, they have been on a four-match losing streak. They will need something special if they are to win this game against a high-flying Thunder side. Meanwhile, the Thunder kicked off their campaign with a win against the Brisbane Heat but went on to lose their next two fixtures against the Melbourne Stars. A massive win against the Heat restored their confidence before they were knocked off their perch by a loss against the Sixers in a rain-marred encounter. They will come into this contest on the back of a win against the Perth Scorchers, a hefty one, and will be looking to keep the winning momentum on their side.
