Preview

In the 25th game of the BBL 2025-26, Adelaide Strikers (STR) are set to face Sydney Thunder (THU). The Adelaide Strikers started this season with a win, but they didn't maintain their winning streak. As of now, they won just two games out of the five this season. In the last game, they lost by 33 runs against the Perth Scorchers. However, in the last games, Matthew Short and Liam Scott scored 31 and 33 runs, respectively. While Lloyd Pope did well in the bowling, taking four wickets.

On the other hand, Sydney Thunder didn't have a good start to this season as they lost five out of the six games so far. They also lost the last match against the Hobart Hurricanes by 6 wickets. However, David Warner performed brilliantly in the last game and scored a brilliant hundred. But except for Daniel Sams, who took three wickets, their bowlers did not perform well.
