Key Contest:
Xavier Doherty vs Aaron Finch
Xavier Doherty is known for his skill of restricting batsmen more than taking wickets but this is very important in Twenty20 cricket especially when you have the support of wicket takers such as Bollinger and Hilfenhaus. Aaron Finch has been in and out of Australia’s limited overs squad and will miss the end part of this Big Bash with International commitments but the captain will want to ensure his team qualifies for the finals. Doherty did extremely well in Brisbane at restricting batsmen when they were hitting other bowlers all over the ground but will have a tougher task of containing Aaron Finch.
