Perth Scorchers vs Adelaide Strikers Big Bash betting preview

Two teams that are on track to play in the first week of the BBL Finals will face off at Optus Stadium when the Perth Scorchers host the Adelaide Strikers.

Besides the Melbourne Renegades, every team is a chance to make the finals, meaning every game has something riding on it.

The in-form Adelaide Strikers will start the match as favourites, but the home deck advantage that the Scorchers have will play a big part in the outcome.

There’s nothing not to love about the BBL at this point of the year, and it is only getting better as we approach the finals.

Perth Scorchers vs Adelaide Strikers BBL top batsman tips

Mitchell Marsh top Scorchers runscorer @ $5.50 with Sportsbet
All the talk surrounds the pair of Scorchers openers, Josh Inglis and Liam Livingstone, as they have found form this past week, but the fact is that they have been inconsistent all season. Mitchell Marsh knows that he needs to produce and usually does, which is what makes him one of the best captains in the BBL.

Travis Head top Strikers runscorer @ $4 with Sportsbet
Speaking of BBL captains, Travis Head is one player that you cannot stop watching once he is hitting the ball well. As a top-order batsman and part-time bowler, Head is very valuable at T20 level, making him a great addition to the Strikers at this time of the season. Head is seeing the ball better now that he has played a few matches and will make a few runs in Perth.

Perth Scorchers vs Adelaide Strikers BBL best bowler betting

Jhye Richardson top Scorchers wicket-taker @ $3.40 with Sportsbet
After an iffy start to the season, Jhye Richardson has turned things around and become one of the best fast bowlers in the BBL. Richardson is capable of great pace, but it is his variety in line, length and speed that makes him a threat in T20 cricket.

Peter Siddle top Strikers wicket-taker @ $4.50 with Sportsbet
The vegan veteran has always been thereabouts in the wicket-taker betting for the Strikers, although he is often overshadowed by Rashid Khan. Billy Stanlake has had a poor season, which only serves to highlight how talented and consistent Siddle really is. The Scorchers could suffer a few blows if Siddle can get the Western Australian bounce on his side.

Adelaide Strikers to win @ $1.78 with Sportsbet
All the form is in the direction of the Adelaide Strikers over the past few days. With Alex Carey and Travis Head back in the squad, Adelaide’s batting looks extremely dangerous. The Scorchers are a very good side at Optus Stadium, but Strikers have the momentum and will be hard to beat.
