Fantasy Tips of The Day
Josh Philippe has scored the most runs (115) including the highest score of 83* at Coffs Harbour. He has also hit the most sixes (7).
Ben Dwarshuis has taken the most wickets (3) at Coffs Harbour. When he last bowled at the venue in 2022, he dismissed the opposition openers cheaply.
When these two sides met earlier in the competition, Matthew Short and Henry Thornton were the captain and vice-captain of the Ultimate Team respectively.
Courtesy of 3 consecutive three-fors, it has been a hat-trick of appearances in the Ultimate Team for Sean Abbott.
Daniel Christian has managed only 45 runs with the bat and 4 wickets with the ball in his last 7 outings.
Only 2 top-order batters have been dismissed for a single-digit score at Coffs Harbour.
Already 75 boundaries (41 fours and 24 sixes) have been smashed in the previous two games at the venue.
While 59% of the wickets have fallen to the pacers, 41% have gone to the spinners at Coffs Harbour.
