After a long build up from last week's Qualifier, the 'Canes will be back on Ninja Stadium tomorrow night!
Hosting a BBL Final for the first time in the club's history, the Hobart Hurricanes have given themselves every chance to lift the trophy for the very first time in what will be a momentous occasion for all of Tasmania.
Playing against the Sydney Sixers last Tuesday, the Hurricanes scored 173 runs from their twenty overs with 40s from Caleb Jewell and Ben McDermott.
Riley Meredith was the pick of the bowlers, tearing through the Sixers line-up with two huge wickets in a Player of the Match performance as the Hurricanes won the match by 12 runs.
The Sydney Thunder made the Final after beating the Melbourne Stars last Wednesday, before winning against the Sydney Sixers on Friday night to book their place in the decider.
Tomorrow night's squad remains unchanged from the fourteen man squad that took on the Sixers, with Head Coach Jeff Vaughan opting to stick with a winning formula.
The starting XI for the match will be announced at the toss tomorrow night.
The Hobart Hurricanes fixture against the Sydney Thunder begins at 7.15 pm (Hobart Time) tomorrow night at Ninja Stadium.
The Hurricanes fourteen-man squad consists of:
