THE TEAM NEWS
PERTH SCORCHERS
MELBOURNE STARS
THE PREDICTION
A high-scoring encounter is in prospect here between two destructive batting units on their day on what should be a belter of a track at Marvel Stadium. The spin-bowling duo of Qais Ahmad and Adam Zampa will be crucial for the visitors against Perth’s explosive top order that includes the likes of Mitchell Marsh, Colin Munro and Josh Inglis. This match really could go either way, depending on who fires on the day with the bat and whilst Melbourne Stars contain the more varied spin options, Perth Scorchers have plenty of experienced pace bowling on their side. Ultimately the consistency shown by the Scorchers across the competition so far despite their recent blip may just tip the scales in their favour here, so back them to edge what should be a cracker.
*This match has since been postponed due to a positive Covid-19 test within the Melbourne Stars' camp.
