Preview:

Prior to their last game, Hobart Hurricanes had lost three games on the trot. Their chances of making it to the next round were looking slim, but a win, and that too a convincing one against a strong Sydney Thunder team will do their confidence.

While their unbeaten run was broken by Sydney Sixers a few days ago, they got back to winning ways in style as they demolished Brisbane Heat in their last game.
