The Perth Stadium is a high-scoring venue. The last 8 BBL matches played here have seen an aggregate score of over 330 runs. We are expecting a similar outcome in this match.
As mentioned earlier, the pitch in Perth is excellent to bat on. As both teams have some clean strikers of the ball, we are expecting a couple of big overs in this match.
Matthew Short and D’Arcy Short are two of the most consistent batsmen in the Strikers team. Both of them have given the team some good starts this season and we are backing them to do the same here.
The Adelaide Strikers will be looking to get back to winning ways as they take on the Perth Scorchers on Wednesday. The match will be played at the Perth Stadium and will be a Day/Night game.
Out of the 22 matches played between the two teams, the Perth Scorchers have won 12, while the Adelaide Strikers have won 10.
This match can be live-streamed on the Disney+ Hotstar App or can be watched live on the Star Sports Network.
As has been the case in the previous seasons, the Perth Scorchers are in excellent form in this season too. They have won 3 matches and are sitting 4th on the points table. However, the Scorchers have played the least number of matches compared to the other teams and are on track to make it to the playoffs.
Led by an indomitable Aaron Hardie, the hosts have a strong batting unit that is capable of taking the attack to the opposition bowling. Hardie is the top scorer for the team with 182 runs. His knocks include 2 half-centuries in 4 innings.
Supporting him in the middle order will be Josh Inglis, Laurie Evans, and Nick Hobson. Zak Crawley is expected to open the batting along with Cooper Connolly. While Crawley is in fine form, Connolly is struggling to replicate his heroics from the previous season.
Coming to the bowling, Jason Behrendorff will lead the attack with the new ball. He has picked up 8 wickets in 4 matches. Supporting him will be the pace trio of Lance Morris, Andrew Tye, and Jhye Richardson. Ashton Agar is the lone spinner on the team but hasn’t had much success in terms of wickets.
The Adelaide Strikers have had a rough time this season. With just 1 win in 5 matches, the team is firmly placed in the bottom half. They are trailing the top 4 teams by 4 points and with just 5 more matches to play, the Strikers will be desperate for a win.
The top 3 batsmen are in excellent form for the Strikers. Chris Lynn is the leading run-scorer for the team with 190 runs, while the opening pair of Matthew Short and D’Arcy Short has been pretty consistent with their batting.
However, the same cannot be said about the middle order. Adam Hose, Harry Nielsen, and James Bazley have all struggled to score runs. On the brighter side, Jamie Overton has proved to be a reliable all-rounder. He has scored 79 runs at a strike rate of 143.63 and has also picked up 6 wickets, making him the joint-highest wicket-taker for the team this season.
He will lead the seam attack alongside David Payne, who also has 6 wickets. However, the other bowlers including Cameron Boyce and Wes Agar have struggled to make an impact.
The team winning the toss will likely opt to bowl first.
The Perth Stadium offers one of the fastest pitches in Australia. The quicker bowlers can expect plenty of pace and bounce from the surface, especially when the ball is new. That said, the batsmen too will enjoy the pace as they can play their shots. A score of around 175-180 is a par score on this surface. The weather is likely to be clear with temperatures between 25 and 30 degrees Celsius.
While the Adelaide Strikers have a strong team, they have struggled to perform as a unit. On the other hand, the Perth Scorchers are undefeated this season and have a good momentum backing them.
