BBL:03 Round 6 Picks

Three from four, and very close to a perfect round thanks to the thrilling finish between the Scorchers and Sixers last night.

Two games each for the Hurricanes and Thunder this round which could make picking a fanatays side difficult given that you only get two changes per round.

  • Hurricanes v Thunder (Bellerive) – The Hurricanes need the win to remain any chance for the finals, the Thunder also need the win haven’t looked like getting close in their last couple. Picking the Hurricanes with the home advantage to extend the Thunder’s streak.
  • Heat v Stars (Gabba) – Both coming off big wins, but the Heat’s win was against the Thunder, and the Stars are slaughtering everyone. The Stars will be without Maxwell, Faulkner and McKay, the Heat should play well at home but I can’t see anyone beating the Stars.
  • Renegades v Thunder (Etihad) – The Renegades will be coming off a 10 day break, and they’ll be without Finch. The Thunder will be playing the 2nd away game in 4 days. Tipping Renegades at home.
  • Sixers v Hurricanes (SCG) – Tricky one to pick. Both suffered close losses against the Scorchers in the last round. Sixers are at home so I’ll go with them.
