PRS vs SYD: Match Overview

Perth Scorchers

Perth Scorchers have demonstrated exactly why they are the most successful team in BBL history. Not only have they been outstanding throughout the competition, but they have also finished first in the point standings, demonstrating their supremacy and consistency.

After being given the opportunity to bat first, Perth Scorchers conducted business as usual. They thrashed the Renegades and finished with 212 runs, losing only five wickets, in what was heaven for bathing. Cameron Bancroft, who scored 95 runs off 50 balls, narrowly missed a well-deserved century by 5 runs.

With 213 runs to defend, the bowling unit was placed under pressure by the opposition, who were only 10 runs short at the end. Given the circumstances, they bowled admirably, but they will want to improve further. Ashton Turner took two wickets for 25 runs, whilst Jason Behrendorff and David Payne had economical spells.

Sydney Sixers

Having lost the championships last season, the Sydney Sixers have entered this competition with an objective in mind. They have been one of the most consistent teams this season and hope to add another championship to their collection.

Given the opportunity to bat first, Sydney Sixers could not have done better. Before the qualification, they would have preferred to score 180 runs while losing seven wickets. Steven Smith was once again at his extraordinary best, scoring 66 runs off 33 balls at a mind-boggling strike rate of 200.

The bowling unit ensured that they played with all of their power and glory, bowling out the opponents for 156 runs and winning the game by a comfortable margin of 24 runs. They utterly misled them and demonstrated why they are in their current position. Each Jackson Bird, Sean Abbot, and Ben Dwarshuis took two wickets.
