The Thunder were always going to be underdogs against their illustrious cross-town rivals who not only triumphed in BBL|01, they also took out the Champions League Twenty20 in October.
The Thunder were sent in to bat by Sixers captain Brad Haddin after he won the toss, and they would have definitely rather bowled if they knew how much they would struggle early on.

Things could have been even worse had the Sixers' Australia Test opener Dave Warner, who was with the Thunder last season, not squandered two catches.
However, the men in green got their act together in the final overs of their innings to post a competitive total of 5-143 for the Sixers to chase.
And the task for the Sixers got harder when Warner failed to redeem himself with the bat, going for a duck on his second ball faced.
Despite the early setback, Warner's teammates Haddin, Nic Maddinson and Steve Smith steadied the ship and set about obliterating the Thunder attack, reaching the total with eight balls and seven wickets to spare.
More to come...
