This partnership was then followed by a couple of more decent partnerships, which led the team to a total of 157 runs. Thunder had a thunderous approach to the chase as they amassed 44 runs for the first wicket in four overs, but after the fall of the first wicket, they just kept losing one after the other.

Player Picks
Daniel Sams THU | ALL
Sams has proven to be one of the best all-rounders in BBL history. He has performed with the bat as well as the ball this season as well and should be the leader of your fantasy side.
Jake Fraser-McGurk REN | BAT
Jake has been in sensational form where he has smashed 257 runs at a strike rate of 158.64 in eight matches. He is surely a pick you can consider for leadership roles in your team.
Alex Hales THU | BAT
Hales has done a good job in scoring 258 runs with a strike rate of 140.98 in nine games. He has smashed 27 boundaries and 13 huge sixes so far in the tournament.
Avoid Having These Players In Your Fantasy Sports Team
Nic Maddinson
REN | BAT
Nick has played five matches so far but has failed to impress the critics. With just 48 runs to his name, he should not find a place in your team.
Peter Siddle
REN | BOWL
Siddle has not been up to the mark with his performances. He should not be placed in your fantasy teams as well.
