Adelaide Strikers Academy have won one of their two completed matches, while Hobart Hurricanes Academy are still searching for their first victory after three games. Therefore, both sides have plenty to play for in this league-stage encounter.

Jerrssis Wadia and Waheguru Dhillon made useful contributions with the bat, while Jordan Buckingham and Wes Agar led the bowling effort. Meanwhile, Adelaide currently have two points with an NRR of -0.515, giving them an opportunity to improve their position with another strong performance.
