THE LOWDOWN

PERTH SCORCHERS

  • The reigning men’s BBL champions bared their teeth in Melbourne this past Friday to dismantle the Stars following a brutal display of batting which saw them rack up 229/7 after winning the toss.
  • Faf du Plessis showed his class and experience at the top of the order, whilst Josh Inglis continued his rich veign of form at number four, striking 74 from just 33 balls including six maximums.

ADELAIDE STRIKERS

  • Adelaide Strikers saw their 100% record in this season’s BBL come to an end against Brisbane Heat and it will be interesting to see how their squad reacts to a loss for the first time.
  • The powerplay was where Adelaide lost the game at the Gabba, having been reduced to 38/4 chasing 167 and more control is needed from their top order here at Optus Stadium.

THE PREDICTION

The quality of Perth Scorchers has never been in doubt and they showed that against Melbourne Stars. Such a performance will have given everyone a reminder as to just how strong a side they are and with home advantage in their favour here, the Strikers are in for a tough assignment. As well as Adelaide have performed across the tournament so far, we are yet to see how they respond from defeat and with another away trip to them, it will be a tough examination. Whilst this encounter could well swing either way, Perth Scorchers are to be narrowly favoured at Optus Stadium.
