Probable Top Performers from SIX vs THU
Probable Best Batter: Josh Philippe
Ever since October, the wicketkeeper-batter has not really had an innings to boast about with the bat. It could be expected that he provides a blazing start to his side in this match.
Probable Best Bowler: Sean Abbott
Abbott could be anticipated to stand out. The right-arm pacer has scalped 12 wickets in his last nine matches. His experience can hold him in good stead in this all-important match.
