THE LOWDOWN

ADELAIDE STRIKERS

• Adelaide Strikers could not cope with the sheer explosive nature of the Perth batting unit at Optus Stadium and their bowlers will need to come up with a different plan ahead of this rematch.
• The Strikers never got close to Perth’s 211/4, bowled out for 169 in 19.2 overs despite Matt Short’s best efforts, the 28-year-old striking 74 from 44 balls in a losing effort, Adelaide’s fourth BBL defeat in a row.

PERTH SCORCHERS

• Laurie Evans’ fireworks won’t be forgotten in a hurry by all who witnessed them, the English overseas player putting Adelaide to the sword with a destructive 85 not out from just 28 balls, including 7 fours and as many 6s.
• Evans helped parachute the Scorchers to 211, a score they comfortably defended, winning 42 runs, their fourth consecutive victory and leaving them still having not been beaten this season.

THE PREDICTION

These two teams are at the opposite end of the form scale, Adelaide Strikers losing their last four and Perth Scorchers winning four on the bounce. The back-to-back champions are proving their credentials further with each passing game and showed their superiority in all departments compared to the Strikers in their last encounter. It’s hard to see this one going any other way, so back Perth to extend their winning streak.

BETTING TIP: PERTH SCORCHERS TO WIN
