THU vs STR Dream11 Prediction: The 32nd game of the Big Bash League T20 2021-22 is scheduled to be contested between the Sydney Thunder and the Adelaide Strikers on 2 January, 2022 at the Sydney Showground Stadium in Sydney. Incidentally, this is the second match between these two teams in the ongoing edition of the tournament in a gap of just two days. The Sydney Thunder will be very much high on confidence as they defeated the Adelaide Strikers in the last game with a rather second-stringed playing 11 due to the Covid-19 fallout in their camp and they now have 4 wins from 7 games. On the other hand, things have gone really bleak for the Adelaide Strikers this season as they have now ended up losing a total of 6 matches and are languishing at the seventh spot on the points table. Both these sides will be looking forward to come up with the best of their efforts in this important stage of the tournament.
