Perth Scorchers vs Sydney Sixers prediction

Perth Scorchers, five-time BBL champions takes on six-time winners Sydney Sixers and the crowd at Optus Stadium will be right behind their Scorchers as always. Ashton Turner captains a strong side that includes the likes of Jhye Richardson, Mitchell Marsh and youngster Cooper Connolly. For the Sixers, big name overseas signing Babar Azam hopes to get off to a good start with the bat, whilst all-rounder Sam Curran offers quality in multiple departments.

Sydney Sixers look fearsome on paper but it may take them time to really click as a team. Perth Scorchers are more of a ‘plug and play’ sure thing right now and with home advantage in their favour, the Scorchers are well worth backing to pick up two points in this BBL 15 curtain raiser.
