Pre-Match Analysis:

Everything is going Perth Scorchers’ way at the moment as they completed back-to-back wins over Melbourne Stars and Adelaide Strikers. They thumped Strikers in their last outing by 3 wickets thanks to a special knock from Ashton Agar who scored an unbeaten 48* runs. The pace trio of Jason Behrendorff, Jhye Richardson, and Andrew Tye has been remarkable so far picking up 23 wickets between them. Josh Inglis is among the runs for the side, chipping in with 2 half-centuries. Aaron Hardie is a wholehearted cricketer who is doing a phenomenal job for the side under tough circumstances. At present they are in the 2nd spot in the standings with 6 points.

Melbourne Stars have no idea what’s going on at the moment as they were clueless in their previous 2 matches. On their away trip to Sydney, they got thrashed by the Sixers in the final over of the match. Beau Webster’s incredible batting display of 78 runs went unnoticed in the losing cause. Marcus Stoinis who didn’t feature in the last game might come back to the playing eleven on Thursday. They lack big hitters in the middle order which needs to be addressed. Nathan Coulter-Nile is back again in the squad again. They need more wins under their belt to climb up in the points table.
