PER vs HBH Team Previews
Perth Scorchers
After their first match of the season against the Renegades was called off due to unsafe playing conditions, the Scorchers scored a resounding win over the Melbourne Stars in their next match. They are currently 3rd on the points table and another big win here might take them to the top spot.
The Scorchers have one of the strongest batting line-ups in the league and will try to put up a big total if they get to bat first. Stevie Eskinazi and Cooper Connolly gave the team a brisk start in the last match. Connolly was in particularly good form as he struck some lusty blows.
The middle order consists of the likes of Aaron Hardie, Ashton Turner, Josh Inglis, and Laurie Evans, providing plenty of depth. Jhye Richardson, Jason Behrendorff, and Andrew Tye make up for a strong pace attack. The trio picked up 6 wickets between them, never allowing the opposition batters to settle in.
Hamish McKenzie was in brilliant form with his left-arm orthodox spin as he picked up 2 wickets for just 12 runs in his 4 overs. He will lead the spin attack with Cooper Connolly playing the supporting role.

Zak Crawley, Cooper Connolly, Aaron Hardie, Josh Inglis, Ashton Turner, Laurie Evans, Ashton Agar, Jhye Richardson, Andrew Tye, Jason Behrendorff, Lance Morris.
Hobart Hurricanes
The Hobart Hurricanes didn’t have the best of starts to their campaign as they lost their opening fixture to the Sydney Sixers. Nevertheless, there are plenty of matches to go and the team will look to turn things around here.
Just like the Scorchers, the Hurricanes too have plenty of firepower in their batting. Matthew Wade and Caleb Jewell are likely to open the batting, with Ben McDermott following in at number 3. The Hurricanes have two excellent all-rounders lower down the order in the form of Corey Anderson and Tim David.
Both of them can add valuable runs in the death overs. The seam attack consists of Riley Meredith, Chris Jordan, and Nathan Ellis. All of them were quite expensive in the last match and that is something that the team will need to work on.
The Hurricanes are likely to go into this match with two specialist spinners, Peter Hatzoglou and Patrick Dooley.
