Preview for STR vs HUR Dream11 Contest
The Strikers’ form is only getting worse with every passing day, and the franchise have now registered 7 defeats in 8 games. They will face the resurgent Hobart Hurricanes next up, who were on a three-game-winning run until their recent game against Brisbane Heat, which they lost narrowly. Form favours those in purple, and it’ll take one monumental effort from the Strikers to get a win in this fixture.

Pitch Report
The Adelaide track has remained quite decent for chasing teams and the team batting first must put up a score in excess of 170 to stand a chance.
STR vs HUR Dream11 Prediction
The Hurricanes, despite a defeat in the last game, have been playing pretty well this season and should be able to see this game through. As for the fantasy selections, the suggestion would be to prioritize the Hurricanes’ players, who have been in better form.
STR vs HUR Dream11 Captaincy Picks
Ben McDermott: Currently the highest run-scorer in the league, McDermott has scored two centuries in back-to-back fixtures, one of which came against the Strikers. He is a top choice for captaincy in small leagues. He currently has 353 runs at a strike rate of 168.10.
Thomas Rogers: Although not many would go for a bowler as captain, you can take a chance with Thomas Rogers as captain in the mega leagues. He has been in prolific form, picking up 14 wickets in 7 games at an average of 13.07.
D’Arcy Short: He has scored 233 runs at an average of 33.29, and is capable of returning with a few wickets when needed. He is a decent option for vice-captaincy.
STR vs HUR Dream11 Budget Picks
Nathan Ellis: The 27-year-old has been in good form with the ball and has picked up 11 wickets in 8 games. He is a pretty valuable pick for 8.5 credits.
Wes Agar: One of the few options in the Strikers’ bowling attack who has been getting wickets regularly besides Rashid Khan, Wes Agar has 8 wickets in 6 games and can be a worthwhile investment at 8.5 credits.
Tim David: The Singaporean cricketer has not received a lot of chances in recent games, but has been striking at 164.29 per hundred deliveries and scored 92 runs thus far. He can be a decent pick at 8.5 credits.
