Thunder celebrate home-heavy BBL|15 schedule

ENGIE Stadium will again host four matches, offering Thunder fans in Western Sydney the chance to enjoy world-class cricket and elevated match-day entertainment, enhanced by the ground’s LED light capabilities.

Those matches at ENGIE Stadium - Sixers (Dec 20), Scorchers (Dec 30), Hurricanes (Jan 3) and Renegades (Jan 12) - headline a blockbuster summer of cricket in Western Sydney.

Thunder will also play two matches at Corroboree Group Manuka Oval in Canberra, another lime green stronghold, as well as the traditional Sydney Smash against the crosstown rival Sixers at the SCG, providing members and fans access to 70 percent of the regular season.

The quest for Thunder’s BBL|15 redemption begins with a grand final rematch against the Hurricanes at Hobart’s Ninja Stadium on Monday, December 16, before returning home for a blockbuster Sydney Smash at ENGIE Stadium just four nights later. 

In addition to the season-opening trip to Hobart, Thunder’s away schedule includes clashes with the Strikers at Adelaide Oval (Jan 6) and the Heat at The Gabba (Jan 10).

Sydney Thunder General Manager Trent Copeland said the fixture presented a prime opportunity for the Thunder team, members and fans that few others in the league could match. 

“We’re very excited about the BBL|15 schedule. Seven games in ‘home’ markets provide great opportunities for our members and fans to engage with the club on and off the field and for us to push one further and lift that trophy,” Copeland said. 

“As a club, we eagerly anticipate the chance to reconnect with our passionate Thunder family in Western Sydney and Canberra and continue the strong home-ground form we showed last season. 

“The game that immediately stands out is our Sydney Smash at ENGIE Stadium. David Warner versus Moises Henriques, Shadab Khan against Babar Azam, lime green against pink, or is it magenta...? Anyway, it’s going to be massive, and we’re so ready to give Western Sydney a night to remember. 

“We want to see and hear our Thunder Nation live and loud at every home match. With your support we can go one better this season.”
