THE LOWDOWN
PERTH SCORCHERS
- Perth Scorchers remain undefeated this season and well on track for a play-off place and a chance to go for a historic BBL ‘three-peat’ with this crucial double-header to come against out-of-form Adelaide.
- The Scorchers have won each of their last three games, most recently getting the better of Melbourne Renegades by 13 runs in a match which saw Perth’s bowlers come up clutch when required.
ADELAIDE STRIKERS
- Coming into this encounter on the back of three successive defeats, the pressure is building on Adelaide Strikers, who could find themselves well out of the play-off hunt if these next two games against the Scorchers don’t go the way they need them to.
- Whilst the batters can hold their heads high, Adelaide’s bowling attack continues to leak runs at an alarming rate, which is ultimately costing them matches, having failed to defend 177 vs Melbourne Renegades and most recently 205 against the Stars.
THE PREDICTION
At Optus Stadium, a notoriously good batting surface against one of the strongest top orders in the BBL, this is set to be a long evening of struggle for the under-performing Strikers bowling unit, who may well be taken to the cleaners by the back-to-back champions. Expect Perth Scorchers to rack up the runs at a lightning-quick rate whether they be setting or chasing a target, laying down the foundations for what should be a comfortable victory.
BETTING TIP: PERTH SCORCHERS TO WIN
