Sydney Sixers will clash with Sydney Thunder in the Challenger match of the Big Bash League (BBL) 2024-25 at the Sydney Cricket Ground on 24th January 2025.

The Sydney Sixers have had an exceptional tournament so far, finishing second in the points table with seven wins out of their 10 matches. However, their campaign hit a minor roadblock in the Qualifier, where they suffered a 12-run defeat against the Hobart Hurricanes. The Sixers, known for their balanced squad and experienced lineup, will be eager to redeem themselves in the Challenger and secure a spot in the final.

Sydney Thunder, on the other hand, have also delivered an impressive season, securing their playoff berth by finishing third in the standings. They showcased their resilience in the Knockout, defeating the Melbourne Stars to advance to the Challenger. Thunder’s recent form and team dynamics have given them the momentum heading into this high-stakes encounter.

The rivalry between these two Sydney-based sides adds extra excitement to the Challenger. They met twice in the league stage, with the Sixers winning the first game by five wickets in a nail-biter, while the second game was abandoned due to bad weather. With a place in the final on the line, expect a thrilling contest at the Sydney Cricket Ground.
