Match Prediction
Little separates these two on current form, so expect a tight, momentum-driven battle.
This XI leans 7-4 towards SYT, which is a deliberate bet rather than a hedge. David Warner takes the armband. If SYT are rolled over cheaply, most of your score goes with them. If you want to de-risk it, swap one SYT middle-order batter for the equivalent slot on the other side before the toss.
