Skipper Matthew Wade and spinner Paddy Dooley have returned for the Hobart Hurricanes in their home Big Bash League clash against the Sydney Thunder.
The fifth-placed Thunder won the toss and elected to bat first on Saturday afternoon at Blundstone Arena.
They are unchanged from their nine-wicket loss to Perth Scorchers on Friday night.
The Hurricanes, who sit one win below the Thunder in sixth position, dropped D’Arcy Short and Mitch Owen for Wade and Dooley.
The match looms as crucial for the top-five chances of both sides.
Test opener David Warner is playing his second match of the BBL season for the Thunder after scoring 19 against the Scorchers.
