The Sydney Sixers have announced a 13-player squad for their sixth match of BBL|09 – the game against the Melbourne Renegades, to be played at Marvel Stadium tomorrow night.
There are two changes to the group that defeated the Sydney Thunder in a Super Over thriller at the SCG last Saturday.
Veteran spinner Steve O’Keefe and pace bowler Mickey Edwards both return to the squad, replacing Hayden Kerr and the injured Sean Abbott.
