Sydney Sixers will host Adelaide Strikers in match no.16 of the Big Bash League (BBL) 2021/22 on Tuesday (December 21). Currently, the Sixers are in good form and have started their tournament with 3 wins out of the 4 matches played, wicket-keeper and opener Josh Philippe is the key to their success as he's in the form of his life in this BBL edition. In the last fixture, the Sixers were given a competitive chase of 178, in which they succeeded in the final over and won the game against Melbourne Stars. Philippe scored unbeaten 99 runs off the 61 balls faced.
On the other hand, Adelaide Strikers are missing key players like Alex Carey and Travis Head due to national duty. The middle-order lacks players who can hit big shots in the middle of the innings and keep the momentum and run rate going, Strikers are shaky from the start of the tournament and the Sixers could punish them in this fixture.
